Wow. What a beautiful place.
@@joeuncoolio extremely beautiful!
Santorini is beautiful when you have time to stay there and live the place for 4 to 5 days.....the visit with cruise boats it is really hectic. Better time for visit is between September's ,October ....
That is great advice! Another viewer suggested the same thing. We saw so much on Santorini that we really wanted to see so I think we will make plans in the future to fly in and stay for a while. Thank you for your feedback, this helps a lot with planning a trip.
Great video! thanks for sharing all the good and the bad - very helpful info :). Beautiful place!
@@LipSyncingFun definitely a bucket list destination.
Visited Santorini on Jul 24 and had much the same experience as you guys. Tendered in from the cruise ship, took a bus to Oia, and battled the crowds in the narrow walkways. There were 5 cruise ships in the harbor, I heard it was a record for number of people in a single day. I'm editing my own video now, and I recognized almost every shot of yours! We took the bus back down to the port and had a great guide give us the history of the island on the way. Definitely worth it, but be prepared for the crowds.
Hi Don, five cruise ships! Wow! As you saw in our video we only had two. Mike and I like to take cruises to visit multiple places and then figure out where we would like to return and get an Airbnb. One of our viewers suggested to avoid the summer month and visit in May or Sept. and find accommodations in Imerovigli. Curious as to which cruise line you took and did they provide more time in Oia. We were on Norwegian.
@@dudez_antics6924 We were on our 4th Viking cruise, we really like them. Due to the 5 ships, the Harbormaster had Viking change the shore excursion times, so our original 8:45 am tour was changed to 11:15. From the time stamps on our photos, I can say that the bus trip to Oia took a little less than an hour, and we had only 1 hour to tour around Oia, about the same as you.. But as I said, it was worth it. What a beautiful and picturesque location! I have a photo of the 5 ships in the harbor but I don't know how to attach it here.
Thank you for sharing!❤
Glad you enjoyed the video!
I am here now loving it
I’m so jealous! Are you there for the day or a few days?
@@dudez_antics6924 till friday
It looked like the perfect postcard!
This is no way to experience Santorini. To see it properly, firstly do not come in the summer peak season. Secondly fly in to Santorini and book nice accommodation for no less than 4 nights. That means you don't have to rush and get stressed and once all the cruise ship daytrippers have left you can enjoy the early mornings and evenings in a much more relaxed style.
@@jjjddd231 that’s great advice! Thank you. That’s something we would actually consider. Which month would we find the best weather, and what part of the island do you recommend for accommodations? Sounds like you have some experience with Santorini.
@@dudez_antics6924 I think it is best to avoid Santorini in the summer months of June, July and August. May & September would still allow swimming if that's important for you, otherwise I would seriously look at April and October.
If your budget allows it, then choose accommodation where your room has a caldera view. This will let you enjoy the epic view from your balcony / terrace while having breakfast and dinner and in particular it will let you enjoy the famous sunset without jostling amongst dozens of strangers at the public vantage points. The western side of the island is where you want to be and the 3 best towns are Fira, Imerovigli and Oia. I recommend Imerovigli as it's between the other two and lets you do the famous hike (Fira to Oia) in two shorter parts.
@@jjjddd231 thank you! That is great advice. We would really love to enjoy the island from what we saw. We’ll see if we can budget it for next year if not the next.
@@dudez_antics6924We always go end of September beginning of October..weather is still great for swimming and sunbathing..it is quite hilly in Fira but being the Capital you can get buses from Central bus station to anywhere on the Island for a couple of Euros..Kamari is lovely..Black volcanic beaches,safe swimming,lots of places to eat.
Oia is beautiful but gets busy when the cruises come in..lots to see and lots of great shopping.
AKkrotiri has a lovely little museum,bit like a tiny Pompeii,buried when the volcano erupted.
You can take a boat trip to Black beach,they drop you off and they return every hour or so for pickups but you can stay all day and get any pick up you want..last one is about 5.00 I think.
❤❤❤ I subscribe for you
Thank you! We appreciate that so much! Hopefully we don’t let you down with our future videos
Even with the heavy tourism was it still worth it? How would a feller with a bad back survive the trip?
@@damentherk unfortunately tourism is heavy everywhere nowadays. But it is worth it to see different parts of this amazing world! As for your back, that is only something you would know.
