If you have plans for a beautiful European summer this year, making your way around the Greek island of Santorini just got a whole lot easier.
Uber has announced that UberX, Uber Black and Uber Comfort services will be launching across the Mediterranean and Balearic Islands, including other islands like Sicily, and Malta, with plans to roll out services in additional Greek and Spanish islands soon.
The decision to expand to the Mediterranean came after Uber data revealed that that rides from US guests are up nearly 500% year over year as tourists flood back to Europe.
