2 OR 3 Days in Santorini after cruise. Hotel recs and tours

[shen61]

We are doing an Adriatic & Greek Treasures cruise Oct 13 -20, 2024. We do not stop in Santorini on the cruise but want to spend 2 or 3 days there after the cruise. Does anyone have recommendations on where to stay in Oia? Preferably no more than $500 a night -- hopefully with a good view. Not far from the main area.

Also - will it be hard to get a private tour when there are alot of ships in port? Any recommendations?

Any restaurant recommendations?

 

Thank you for any information you can offer...

I would be looking on TripAdvisor.

You have a lot of choice and prices will probably be lower in October. You should be able to book tours or think about renting a car. 

Good timing.
