Santorini was one of the most beautiful stops on our cruise… but it also became our most stressful day. We rented a car but miscalculated our timing and nearly missed the last tender back to the ship (by 5 minutes!!). In this video, we’re sharing exactly what went wrong, how we made it back just in time, and what we would do differently if we ever visit Santorini on a cruise again. If you’re planning a Santorini cruise stop, especially with kids, this is what you need to know before renting a car or planning your day. We hope our experience helps you avoid the stress we went through.
