This was well worth the price. George was our tour guide and extremely knowledgeable. He knew all the good spot to take us to and without all the crowds. Wonderful sites. The whole day was perfect. We saw so many beautiful sites we loved them all. They just kept getting better along the way. This is a must do to see the island the right way.

Theo was the perfect guide! He told us that it was "our day" and then fulfilled that promise. He tailored our tour to meet our desires on the fly. For example, as we walked through Oia, we mentioned that we'd like to try local beers. He immediately took us to a wonderful rooftop restaurant overlooking Oia and the water! Later, we decided to drop the black beach and Theo rerouted accordingly. Theo also knew the best spots for photos, hidden gems that most tourists will never see, and he had great knowledge of the island's history and volcanic activity. Lunch was at a restaurant with absolutely authentic Greek food that was so delicious. This was truly a day well-spent and we saw all of the sites we wanted to see and more!
A fantastic day in Santorini!

My wife and I were lucky to get to spend a day with Theo. He shared his local knowledge with us not only taking us to some of the best food spots and booking us a winery tour but also helping us to better understand the history of the area and current issues. Our day was both very fun and very educational. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to explore the whole island and get both the best highlights and more local flavor.

Theo was the best guide ever! So kind, patient&caring especially for me- a senior with knee issues- always aware of how many stairs to navigate. Brought me, my son & DIL to our favorite spots & Theo recommended special places for photos (even took many photos for us)& to many shops, wine&beer spots, gave historical history of sites we saw and even recommended local restaurants for sunset viewing. Was a wonderful experience & I will never forget these memories! Thank you!
