5.00I loved this one! The pride with which our tour guide , Yola, showed us around was infectious and can only come from a local. I am so glad that she included not just touristy spots of Santorini but also the more local places.
Get to know Santorini

5.00We had a wonderful day with Penny and our driver George! Penny is very knowledgeable and experienced in getting around and ahead of all the cruise ship passengers. She is very kind and her love of Greece shows in how much she shares with you about this island. George is an incredible driver in the chaos. We experienced rain and fog on our way up to the highest point on the island and he handled it like a champion. Do the wine tasting! Penny is VERY knowledgeable about wine as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our day - highly recommend this excursion!
Waste of time and tiring.

3.00The guide tried her best it seems, however there was no plan to get us the best experience. 1. In a van with 10 people do not use a mic was a big disappointment,cuz we could barely hear the guide 2. The idea of the trip was to learn more about history, country and the island. We got "history" talk about 30% the rest was a talk about our life in USA. 3. "Wine tasting" was a pure rip off. Absolutely not worth it. Rashed,scripted and "get rid of" style. 4. The guide s "pay back restaurant was such a touristy trap 5. At the end of the day we were hoping this tour to end soon. Verdict: Don't go. It's not worth it
Highly recommend
