Our guide Maria was super friendly and knowledgeable! This was our favorite activity of our trip. We tasted lots of white wines, a few dessert wines and a couple of liquors as well. All of the wineries had small bites of food as well.

Santorini wine making history tour
David_I, May 2024
Visiting a local family farm still making wine by hand for the locals. Ending our tour with a visit to an authentic “cave” winery operation.
Definitely do this!

Dear Samantha, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback.
Great wine tour!
Grant_M, Apr 2024
Very memorable trip. We learned a lot and got to enjoy some incredible wines. It was a quieter day and our group was only 4 people. We saw 3 wineries and each was great. The Assyrtiko wines were lovely, and we even shipped some back home to the states. Definitely recommend this exrursion.

Dear Grant, You are the best! Thank you
Wine with new friends
Shay_P, Apr 2024
Pickup was perfect, small group of 3 couples, guide was great. We enjoyed all 3 wineries with their own distinct story and wines. Definitely a must to learn about the wine culture of the island.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Dear Shay, thank you so much for your kind words about your experience in Santorini Island.

Wonderful and perfect for the wino!
Daniel_T, Sep 2023
This was an awesome private tour. It was the wife and I with another couple all day long. And even though we didn’t make it back to the cliff sights in Oía for the sunset. We still pulled off in a perfect area on the way to enjoy the sunset.
Great guide, wine and munchies
Kimberly_W, Sep 2023
Our tour guide John (Giannis) was amazing and cultivated a fantastic tour of three wineries that represented great variety of Santorini wines with great snacks. He made the tour fun and engaging.
60th Birthday Winery Tour on Thira
Robert_M, Sep 2023
We really had a great time with Fotios visiting the 3 wineries. All were different and the backdrop was stunning with many amazing photo opportunities. A final trip south to see the sunset by the lighthouse. Perfect birthday treat. Thank you and would highly recommend this tour and guide.
Highly recommend
Angela_L, Sep 2023
A great experience and Yiannis was super friendly and knowledgeable. The only reason why it's missing a star is that the experience felt a little rushed due to a few on the trip having to be back to get on their cruise ship. Such a great bunch of people, lots of laughs and fun. Would highly recommend!!
Such a nice tour!! We...
Marie_L, Aug 2023
Such a nice tour!! We loved it - would definitely recommend. The host was great and they picked us up and it was a relatively small group and the vineyards were lovely!
Highly Recommend
Travis_S, Jun 2023
They took us in a new Mercedes van with plenty of room to 3 of the 22 wineries on Santorini. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the wines on the island, but also the history of the island. While no meal was provided, each winery had generous portions of cheese and other tapas provided. While not a part of the tour, our guide took us to a hidden gem of a location to watch the sunset at the end of the tour. Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Travis, you are the best. Thanks a lot.
Wine...wine...& more wine!
Josie_J, Jun 2023
Wonderful way to taste Santorini wines! Tour guide was very helpful. Didn’t overlook the water but would do this tour again...cheeses & Greek prosciutto were fabulous!

Felix_K, May 2023
Really good tour with highly knowledgeable tour guide and showcased a good range of local wine. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience!
Response from Host, May 2023
Dear Felix, thanks a lot for your wonderful feedback.
You will be saying “Yiamas”

Our driver was a bit late, but it gave us the opportunity to chat with the other couples waiting as well. Other than that, the tour operator was very informative. All 3 wineries were surprisingly good. We are wine members at several wineries so we know a thing or two about wine. The Art Space winery was our favorite. Not a fan of any of the sweet wines, but that’s just our personal preference. Oh! And we even stopped to see the sunset! Great photo opp! Would definitely recommend this tour.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you so much for the wonderful and positive feedback. You are the best!
Wonderful Greek wine tour!
Kristine_B, Apr 2023
The history of wine making in Santorini was told throughout the tour, beautiful wineries and wonderful wine with great food tastes as well!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Dear Kristine, you are the best! Thank you
Great experience and very knowledgeable about the local wines!
Mike_G, Apr 2023
Great experience. Alex was amazing at ensuring we had a great trip. Mary and the other wine guide were very knowledgeable and patient with all of our questions. We never felt rushed and had a great time. Highly recommend the first winery, Art Space, and the 2nd winery Artemis Karamolegos.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Mike, thank you so much for the beautiful review.

Really great and personalized tour ! Highly recommend. Great wineries with delicious wine and really great views !
Not worth the money
Janice_L, Nov 2022
It was in mid-Nov and I wish that the trip was cancelled or at least be informed that the choices of wineries were limited if I had known that most things would be shut down starting in early November. The guide wasn’t very knowledgeable in wine, I could have googled to get the answers myself. One of the wineries was totally offering unfair treatment amongst visitors. I would suggest going to visit the wineries myself (each ranges from EU 10-15 for the ones I went) vs signing up for this.
Fun night with wine
Susann_S, Nov 2022
We had the best tour guide Mary! Great experience learning about the delicious wines of Santorini. We really enjoyed ourselves and a special thank you to Esmarelda at our first stop. We wanted to take her with us the rest of the tour!!
