Solo travel experience

Went for two nights/three days, and I wouldnโ€™t bother going again. Itโ€™s fat too small, thereโ€™s nothing to do, and it gets so overfull with tourists that itโ€™s just hell trying to get anywhere in the towns.

Solo travel experience

Santorini is very touristy and overcrowded. Very overwhelming. When those cruise ships arrive, it literally feels like everyone is packed in like sardines. It was very pretty though and very expensive, especially accommodation and food. I spent double the amount in the 2 days in Santorini compared to my 5 days in Athens.

Solo travel experience

I loved Santorini - did the hike from Fira to Oia and a boat trip to the volcano, hot springs, and then sunset. Felt very safe.
