Great tour!

Cheri_B, May 2024

We had a fantastic experience! Our driver was able to change our time to meet our needs and did a great job keeping us safe and taking us to the most photographed locations with beautiful view's! Thank you so much Yonny!

Wonderful experience

Bertrene_C, Nov 2023

Mary, our tour guide, was awesome. Because the island was starting to close down, the tour turned into a private one because it was just 2 couples. We toured the entire island. What a great experience.

Where’s the Wine?

NeilK, Oct 2023

The tour and was interesting and took us to some interesting spots with some terrific views. Unfortunately we were never taken to the wine tastings, nor was it offered.

Santorini Private Tour

Esther_C, Oct 2023

We had a private tour. Fotios Tsevas was very nice and accomodating. Went to places that were not crowded with other tourists.

Super Santorini

Peter_S, Oct 2023

Outstanding tour! Our guide Mary was super! We saw the whole island in a very comfortable van! Great value for the money!

See the rest of Santorini

Chris_G, Oct 2023

Wonderful guide who was from the island. Very knowledgeable and catered the tour to the desires of the group. Everything was excellent.

Great guide/great tour

Jane_H, Sep 2023

Our tour guide was excellent..I felt like we saw the island and the wine tasting at the end was great. If you take the tour, believe the stories about the wait for the cable car. We were very glad that we had booked our tour for 10AM and allowed plenty of extra time. Same with return. Would do again!

Nice Sightseeing Tour of Santorini

Suzette_N, Sep 2023

Yannis gave us a delightful tour of the sights of Santorini which is very picturesque. Unfortunately, due to a 2 hour line for the cable car for our return to the ship forced us to use the steps which were quite steep, slippery, and full of donkey droppings.

Best guide!

Bernardette_S, Aug 2023

Our guide Sofia was super communicative and friendly. She was patient with our time and tried to fit in as much as possible. She was extremely knowledgeable with all the questions we asked. We had an incredible trip it was everything the description offered and more.

Wonderful Santorini Experience

Donald_P, Jun 2023

Had a wonderful time touring the island with Mary and Kostas. She knew all the back walkways and alleyways to see the highlights - several blue-domed churches - and interesting historical sights through Fira and Oia. Then spent time walking through the small and unique town of Megalachori, followed by a scenic view from the top of Mesa Vuono. Finished with an exceptional lunch and wine tasting at Karamolegos Winery and a quick stop to view the black sand beach. Mary was a wonderful guide and hostess with many insights to life and living in Santorini.

Santorini experience

Penny_R, Jun 2023

She walked too fast and couldn't always hear what she was saying. Enjoyed the wine tasting experience. Santorini is a very special place.

The Best!

Linda_S, Jun 2023

We originally we going to both ride on one atv, but the day before I decided I’d like to have my own. I’m so glad I did. It was so much fun. The tour lasts about 5 hrs., and it included bottled water and lunch. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and offers pickup and drop off services within a certain area from their location. We’ve done a lot of tours over many years, and we both thought this was the most fun we have had on any tour.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear Linda, Thank you so much for your excellent review.

A great tour with wine

Michael_S, May 2023

Response from Host, May 2023

Dear Michael, we appreciate your feedback. Thank you!

Beautiful Day!!!

Sharon_W, Nov 2022

Our shore excursion was perfect. Our guide took us to beautiful locations and helped all of us take great photographs. The pace was good and we covered all the highlights promised. Guide and driver excellent.

Ted is the BEST tour guide!!

Cam_C, Nov 2022

This tour was amazing and Ted was the BEST tour guide!! He was fun, happy, and very knowledgeable!! If you are going, request Ted since he is the best!!

We always love Santorini

Jacqueline_A, Nov 2022

Our small tour was very good, with a good tour guide. The highlight was the visit to the Estate Argyros Winery for sure. I would have given this tour 5 stars but the choice of restaurant (Mario's) was unfortunately the wrong place at the wrong time, being a public holiday and all families not working, they were all out to celebrate at lunchtime. It was filled with long tables of locals so we did not receive the service or food that was expected. Very unfortunate. BUT the tour and tour guide were very good. I would recommend this tour .....

5 hour Santorini tour with Mary!

Kenneth_C, Oct 2022

Mary our tour guide was patient, knowledgeable and had great tips about each part of the city we toured. She even took us to her favorite bakery in Thira at our request. She also doubled as our photographer and of course she guided us to the best Angie to take our pictures so we had the desired outcome!! Cheers to Mary!! For me the wine tasting was the icing on my cake!!

TEN THUMBS UP!

Misty_B, Oct 2022

There were four of us who had the pleasure of learning all about Greece with Maria riding along with our driver, Demitri. Maria was so knowledgeable answering every question we had (and we had a LOT) with so much passion and history. She's so fun and we had a ton of laughs. Ending up at the winery, meeting Paula was over-the-top awesome! TEN thumbs up to this excursion, especially if you are lucky enough to tour with Maria!

Santorini

Paula_J, Oct 2022

Our original tour guide did not wait even though I texted on the app that the tenders were running late. Alphonso was there & with another couple on a different tour by Viator he took the 4 of us on an entire island tour with lunch at a local restaurant! It was wonderful. I did finally hear from the original guide an hour after we had left & received a text sent that morning days later. In the long run it was a perfect tour!
