All hotels in Santorini / Santorini Airport & Port / Cruise Ship Travelers: Pick-up for cruise travelers is from the top exit of the cable car in Fira, where I will be waiting for you holding a sign with your name. The cruise ship disembarkation in Santorini is carried out via tender boats from the ship to the cruise port, followed by a short cable car ride up to the town of Fira. As I have no control over possible disembarkation delays, I will patiently wait for you until you arrive.
