That means when you visit, there will be zero other guests in your shot. Just you and the view. You're welcome to enjoy this private spot, as well as Santorini's many other Blue Dome Churches around the island. One honest note: for the public churches we can't promise there won't be other visitors taking photos at the same time. But the Blue Dome view beside our office is one we can guarantee will be completely private — entirely yours. It's optional and free of charge, simply for guests who'd love a crowd-free picture of one of Santorini's most famous sights. Just let your guide know, and we'll be happy to arrange it!
