Samos island tour from the west with wine-tasting

4.4/5
98 reviews

Samos is proof that it's the little things that count, and this Greek island has them all – beauty, crafts, history and quality local produce. This full day island tour lets you experience it all in just one trip. Highlights include the Temple of Hera and the village of Pythagorio, as well as visits to olive and wine factories.

You'll ease into the day with a visit to a traditional olive oil factory to see how it is made, followed by a ceramics workshop, run by the artist Timo. Then, you'll meet your local guide at an Orthodox monastery and move on to discover the Temple of Hera, one of the largest temples in Ancient Greece.

Now you've earned a quick break, and the picturesque village of Pythagorio is just the place for it. You'll have some free time here to grab lunch before ending the day with a visit to a nearby wine factory for a tasting of the locally-produced vino.

    Hela turen var mycket bra. Vi som inte gillar att kana runt i en bil på semestern fick chans att se andra delar av ön. Trevlig och skämtsam personal. De tog hand om oss på ett fint sätt. Vi fick mycket intressant information av de två guiderna. Utflyktsmålen blev intressanta med bra passionerade personer.

    Trevlig tripp där man fick möjlighet att se en hel del under en dag utan att det blev för stressigt. Duktiga guider och trygg busschaufför. Magiska vyer under bussresan. Personligen hade jag avstått keramiker stoppet till förmån av lite längre tid I Pyhtagoria. 1 1/2 timme där är lite kort om man ska hinna äta samt se lite.

    Very well organised tour. Excellent guide and driver. Although it said to take towels there was no need for them.

    Väldigt trevlig och händelserik tur. Det som drar ner betyget är guiden som var med på resan. Hon var trevlig men hennes engelska var nästan omöjlig att förstå och hon gick iväg väldigt snabbt fån bussen och då hörde man absolut inte vad hon sa.. Däremot hon som guidade på klostret och utgrävningarna var en 10+ Vi uppskattar lugnet på hotellet och stranden och hoppas att det inte blir ett sånt ställe som spelar hög musik 24/7 eller att stranden tas över av säljare av upplevelser typ jetski mm.
