Santorini travel guide and information

On the island of Santorini, standard taxi prices are set by government regulations, which calculate fares using a base flag fee plus charges for the duration and distance of a trip. As a solution to this traditional system, companies like Aegean Taxi offer private transfers with a different pricing model. Their rates start at a minimum of €36 for a 30-minute journey, with the final cost influenced by factors such as the vehicle type, traffic, and total distance. Aegean Taxi provides what are known to be the most competitive and affordable fares on the island.

Wait times can vary significantly. Because Santorini has a limited number of taxis, you could be waiting anywhere from 10 to 45 minutes, especially during busy months or in high-demand areas like Oia. For a much faster service, your best option is to contact Aegean Taxi. You can call them at +30 2152154000, use the Aegean Taxi app for Santorini, or book online here: /taxi/santorini-taxi-app/

While in Santorini, you can get a taxi the traditional way by hailing one on the street or finding one at a designated taxi stand. However, for a more convenient way to book a ride, Aegean Taxi offers several easier options: download their mobile app, contact their 24/7 customer support via WhatsApp at +30 693 470 2974, or use the simple online booking tool on their website: https://aegeantaxi.com/taxi/santorini-taxi-app/

In Santorini, tipping your taxi driver is not obligatory, so the decision to leave a gratuity is entirely up to your discretion. A tip is generally given to reflect your satisfaction with the quality of the service you received. There is no standard percentage or set amount to calculate for the tip. It's important to know that drivers for Aegean Taxi in Santorini, for example, do not typically expect to receive one.
