Santorini, Greece

Choose your base around transport, not just the hotel photo. A car-free trip works best when the places you want to visit line up with available services.
Start with your arrival
Check the journey from the airport or station to your accommodation, including the final connection. A late arrival can change the practical choice of base.
Check the return journey
Look at both directions before planning a day trip. Leave time for connections and check whether the service runs on your actual travel date.
Keep an alternative
Weather and seasonal timetables can change your day. Have a nearby activity or another transport option in mind before you set out.
