vgarcia1020 Posted May 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We are going on a cruise starting June 5, 2010 and one of the stops is Santorini. We always like to DIY planning and rather not take the cruise excursions. So...in Santorini we were thinking of going to see the volcano. is it nice? Do you need a guide or can you jump on the ferry and do it on your own? It would be great to hear some suggestions. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moyaroo Posted May 11, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 11, 2010 You will be mooring directly over it or shall I say in it. The whole island is a caldera with the center of the volcano out in the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure you keep to the law by wearing a helmet, altho' you may see locals without- it's the law! And keep covered- there's lots of stories of people being in accidents, and having severe skin grazes because they were wearing shorts. My friends ride a quad bike for 2 when we stay on the island.....they're younger than us- we stick to a car. Jo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
