5.00Tour guide Maria and owner/driver John gave us a wonderful private tour. We saw Santorini through the eyes of ‘locals’ and it really opened our eyes to the beauty and culture of the island. Highly recommend…and you can customize your tour too!…just tell them what you’d like to see and do.

5.00Guide Maria is the BEST..... Her English was very clear and her voice projection was tops. Her knowledge and understanding of Santorini's history and culture was deep and profound. Guide Maria took very good care of our group of 14 during our island visit.
Good way to tour Santorini in a day.

5.00Angelo was absolutely amazing - his knowledge of history and local lore was surpassed only by his accommodating demeanor and customer-focused approach. We had a wonderful time, shared lots of laughs, saw all the places we wanted to see and more (per Angelo’s suggestion) and learned an incredible amount. Highly recommend!
All the great sights of Santiniori!

5.00We toured the island of Santorini with Sakis this week. He did an excellent job providing the many highlights of the island. We learned about the culture and the history of the island. This tour is a must if you want to get a feel for different areas of Santorini from the beach community, popular tourist areas, and local areas. Sakis was friendly and a great guide!!!

5.00This was an excellent and flexible way to see the best of Santorini from the cruise ship in half a day. Maria was great with a referral to a water taxi that saved the day despite the cable car and walking path shutdown. We had a wonderful tour and even got to experience a rare Santorini rain storm. It was a lot of fun learning some history and getting some ‘postcard’ worthy photos. Maria guided us to the desirable spots, avoiding crowds. Our group of 11 avid photographers highly recommend!
