Description

Regent Seven Seas Cruises is proud to partner with Food & Wine Trails, America’s foremost culinary travel company, in the offering of this tour. Food & Wine Trails tours are always kept intimate and visit sites not typically offered by mainstream travel suppliers. Their tours are always led by a knowledgeable, English-speaking sommelier, wine or food expert, cooking instructor or chef, who enjoys introducing visitors to some of the best and most authentic food and wine of their region.

Discover Santorini’s bewitching beauty and exquisite vineyards and enjoy a tour and lunch at a winery owned by a family recognized as the “Mondavis of Greece” on this captivating tour. You’ll explore Santorini with a local expert and tour guide, beginning your day in enchanting Oia, a quaint village once home to wealthy seafarers that is built on the dramatically steep slope of a now-submerged caldera formed in a volcanic eruption around 3,500 years ago. Appreciate tips from your sommelier guide for sites to explore or perhaps shop for handmade ceramics, paintings and semi-precious jewelry. Across the island, you’ll find the pretty hamlet of Megalochori, home of the renowned Boutari Winery. Learn that its founder, Yiannis Boutari, is a Greek vintner whose influence on the country’s wine industry has been compared by Wine Spectator to that of the late Robert Mondavi’s imprint on Napa Valley. After a guided tour, you’ll sample a selection of their award-winning wines and enjoy a sumptuous luncheon featuring local specialties. Back in Fira, relish free time to shop or relax with a coffee, gazing at stunning vistas and contemplating your magnificent day.
