Santorini Cruise Transportation Service

Water Taxi Service in Santorini

Skip the Cable Car, Embrace the Sea
At VIP Transfers Santorini, our Water Taxi Service offers a scenic and efficient alternative to the crowded cable car or long uphill walks. Whether you’re arriving from a cruise ship or simply looking for a stylish and time-saving way to reach the island, our water taxi experience is designed for ease, comfort, and unforgettable views.

Upon arrival at the Old Port, you’ll be greeted by a dedicated on-site representative holding a sign with your name. They’ll coordinate your boarding and ensure a smooth departure. Choose between private or shared water taxis based on your needs and group size. We handle the logistics so you can focus on enjoying the journey.

Depending on the service selected, drop-off is arranged at either Ammoudi Bay or the New Port of Athinios—both accessible by road, giving you the freedom to plan your next move with ease.
