Drive past wind‑scarred coasts to an old lighthouse, sip wine at an organic farm, stroll a quiet 1950s‑style beach and finish in Chora’s labyrinth of windmills and Paraportiani. This private four‑hour tour pairs island history with local tasting.

You arrive with the Aegean scraping at the shore and the island’s pale stones bright against a clear blue sky. The van winds up narrow roads, the wind urging you toward the northern tip where the lighthouse stands—Armenistis—guarding a spill of sea and the scatter of nearby islets. Salt and dust mix in the air, and the island’s particular brightness makes every white wall almost audible.
