Worth the Day!
Jina_N, Apr 2024
We felt like we were able to see the whole island of Santorini during this day trip. There were 6 stops. We enjoyed some free time during several of the stops. We did enjoy the archeological site and it would be nice if they added the ticket but we just planned the cost into our day! (We would have paid more for the tour so they could add the ticket and raise the cost of the tour!) The only thing that needs changed is at the wine tasting. No mention of prices or price list were given about the wine we tasted. It would be nice if they gave more information. They might sell more if they did. I wasn’t sure what was what in there store so providing this info would increase the likelihood of sales! The time at the beach was a little long but probably because it was not warm enough to swim! Many of the restaurants were not open so not much to do. The sunset was a beautiful end to the day. The views provided were all beautiful. Enjoyable day and would recommend the tour.
Best value day trip

We had a wonderful time on this tour. The tour was put together beautifully with ample time to enjoy all of the stops. Our tour guide and bus driver were professional and took care of us greatly. Nikolas is the best driver! We met some fantastic people on the tour as well. Would highly recommend this tour.

Tracey_Y, Oct 2023
They started off as little hectic as we were picked up in one bus. And then told that we had to change and get on to a big, huge bus, which was not fun. As the tour was now about 30 people instead of about 10 period the person who was the guide was not overly friendly. We period period but I guess that's just the way it goes.

The worst
Olena_L, Jul 2023
If you have any self-respect book with someone else. They just want your money, they don’t care about you. We never made it to the tour because there were too many cruise ships in Santorini. MTM DMC Ltd., the provider of the tour, barely communicated with us. I received a random message on WhatsApp 12 hours prior to the tour only after I contacted Viator support team. I asked for money back and I said that I didn’t trust this provider and only then I got the message from them and when I said that we might not be able to be on time, the person on the other end just laughed and said that he’s keeping 100% of my money! After that, he wished me a good night with a :-) and never responded again. These people do not deserve a penny of your money and they really need to rethink how they treat their customers. Never will I ever book with them again.
Trip is good value and see island
D_M, Jun 2023
Trip overall was value for money . See the island , coach driver (Nikos) was excellent. Penny at Akrotiri and Gianni were good guides . Gave a good tip for “all “of the staff ….. hope this was shared …however , was left uncertain because did not view it going into “the pot” . Ended up leaving another for the coach driver when leaving coach because of this . Always find that this aspect of any trip turns into a far more expensive day out…. and ruins aspect of the trip. JWhy are tips and the fees for Akrotiri not built into the overall costs ? Have found more and more as a single person that whenever on holiday always end up feeling compromised and pay literally a small fortune in tipping when using the 10/15% rule because never wish to appear mean and thankless. Ie could go on another holiday ! Greece in general and compared to Mauritius and Australia appears to prefer use of cash and found it difficult overall to change large notes into small more usable notes for such occasions .
A knowledgeable trip with sunset of lifetime to end with
sudharsanan_G, Jun 2023
The trip was good with ample amount of free time to explore the villages like emporio and perissa by ourselves. The guide was very very knowledgeable as she gave the clear picture with timeline on the past, the present and how the future might be of santorini. The sunset in oia is the cherry on top but it was super crowdy. However our guide Katherine suggested alternative places to see the sunset from which kind of saved us.
Great tour seeing lots of the island
Michelle_S, May 2023
Tour of Akrotiri and the Venetian fort and old town were really interesting. Guide was great and informative. Enjoyed the lunch time at the beach in Perissa. We are not wine drinkers, so the wine tasting was sort of lost on us, but everyone else seemed to enjoy it!
Beautiful just like on the post cards
Adrian_F, May 2023
Our guide Antonia and our driver Nikolai were amazing! They kept us informed and interested the entire trip

EricaMay_V, Apr 2023
I enjoy the tour. I learn a lot. Shout out to our Tour Guide Armani and to the driver Niko. I love the wine tasting and seeing the underground Museum. We went up on the highest mountain in the island and eat in the lovely beach of Perissa. Worth purchasing and trying this tour. Specially if you're a solo traveler this is also a good way for you to meet people. ;)
Nice tour
