Kathrin is an absolutely amazing guide and an even more wonderful human being. She brought the magic of Santorini to life, sharing not only the beauty of its landscapes but also the rich history and hidden gems that made the tour unforgettable. Her knowledge, warmth, and passion created an experience that went far beyond sightseeing. It felt like exploring with a friend who truly loves and understands the island. I can not recommend Kathrin enough if you want to experience the true wonders of Santorini!

Ted was our guide and I can’t say enough good things about him! I would rate him more than excellent! We are vacationing with family and we all agreed he was by far the best guide we had ever had…there are 5 of us and we have all been on many tours. One even said he treated us as family and not as a client. He knows his history and he was so excited to share with us. Thank you Ted for a wonderful trip to Santorini!

Great tour - Santorini. Is so much more than Oia. Skip the crowds and learn more about the history. Half the price of a cruise excursion - 4x the fun with a private tour. Our guide Sabine had the right amount of fun and information. Great new vehicle - perfect for families of 3-6

Elle was so knowledgeable and nice! We greatly enjoyed our day with her seeing all the different sides of Santorini. It was amazing to see Santorini through the eyes of a local resident. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Santorini even repeat visitors!

We were traveling with Sabine and this day was just great, leaving earlier than planned and getting the last tender before the break. Information great, a successful private tour with many impressions🥰class.

We took a private tour with Sabine and she was wonderful! After seeing all the main spots of Santorini ourselves we decided we wanted a private tour of the lesser known spots before we left for Milos. Sabine held our luggage in the car, brought us to a couple of small villages around the island, Pyrgos, beautiful viewpoints, and then dropped us off at the ferry terminal. It was a very enjoyable way to spend 3 hours. Their private tours are very customizable so you can choose where to go or let your guide decide. Highly recommend this company- thank you again! Hope we can come back to Santorini and book another one.

Booking the First Impressions private tour with Santorini Experts was definitely a highlight of our port of call in Greece. Kathrin made the booking process very easy and the lovely Agatha met us at the exit of the upper cable car station in Fira holding a sign with our name. Agatha shared her knowledge of Santorini with such passion and energy that you couldn't help but fall in love with the island too. We can't thank you enough for such an amazing day that we will never forget.
