The story
Most people drive to Oia, stand in a crowd for twenty minutes and drive back. The walk along the caldera rim is the better version of the same day.
It is about nine kilometres of clifftop path with the volcano on your left the whole way, and you arrive at Oia having earned the sunset rather than queued for it.
What happens
The plan as the operator runs it. Start times and pickup are confirmed for your date.
