Getting Around the Island

Santorini offers several transportation options, including car rentals, scooters, and public buses. Renting a vehicle can give you the freedom to explore at your own pace. However, the island's narrow roads and busy traffic can be challenging for some drivers.

Alternatively, Alafropetra Luxury Suites can arrange private transfers, ensuring a stress-free travel experience. Plan your transportation ahead of time to avoid any last-minute hassles.

Best Time to Visit

While Santorini is beautiful year-round, the best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons of spring and fall. During these months, the weather is pleasant, and the island is less crowded. This allows you to enjoy the stunning views and attractions without the bustling crowds of the peak summer months.
