## Important Information for Cruise Ship Passengers This tour is organised by a local Santorini travel agency and welcomes all visitors, whether they are staying at a hotel, arriving by plane, or visiting the island on a cruise ship. Cruise passengers should be aware that access from Santorini’s Old Port to Fira is subject to the disembarkation procedures, tender operations, cable car capacity, cruise traffic, and passenger-flow arrangements determined by the cruise companies and the competent local authorities. These procedures can result in long and unpredictable delays that are entirely outside our control. The meeting point for cruise passengers is at the exit of the upper cable car station in Fira. Please disembark as early as possible and allow substantial time to reach the meeting point. The ship’s scheduled arrival time should not be considered the time at which passengers will reach Fira. We make every reasonable effort to assist cruise passengers. However, this is a scheduled small-group tour that also serves guests staying at hotels and other accommodation around Santorini. The departure cannot be delayed indefinitely because of congestion at the Old Port or the cable car. Passengers who arrive after the confirmed departure time may miss part of the tour. Where operationally possible, we will provide instructions for joining the group at a later stop, but this cannot be guaranteed. Missed tour time resulting from late disembarkation, tender delays, cable car queues, or other port-access problems is not the responsibility of the tour operator and does not qualify for a refund. Unfortunately, the current management of cruise arrivals in Santorini frequently creates avoidable congestion and uncertainty for independent visitors. It has also allowed a separate commercial market to develop around bypassing these difficulties, including paid fast-track arrangements, water taxis, private transfers, and similar services. These are independent services and are not organised, controlled, or endorsed by Santorini Getaways. In our view, cruise passengers should not be required to purchase additional services simply to overcome congestion created by inadequate coordination. Until the responsible organisations establish a more reliable system, passengers must plan conservatively and allow as much time as possible to reach Fira.

Not recommended for travelers with serious mobility limitations
