5.00Theodore did a great half day tour of Santorini for my family. He was accommodating of the fact we needed breakfast before “really” starting the tour, so our first stop was a really yummy local bakery. We then headed north to Oia, Theodore knew a lot of great places to take photos, and he’s actually quite a good photographer too. We then headed south to the lighthouse with a few other stops along the way. Theodore answered all our various questions about things we saw along the way, from how vineyards on the island work to home building techniques. A fun experience all around. Thanks Theodore!
Attention to details , accommodative , friendly !

5.00We Theodore as our tour guide . He came a few minutes early our meet up time . When he realized that we did not get breakfast from hotel because it was too early, he took us to a local bakery, which was awesome. Wide selection and you can see the locals keep coming up . Our stops involved exploring around the whole island , starting at Oia in the north part and ended at the lighthouse at the southern part . He even act as our photographer and choreographed our poses for us as a family and for our college kid. Great tour guide !
Theodore is a Wonderful Santorini Tour Guide!

5.00The four of us had an excellent tour with Theodore! We loved seeing all of the main sites of Santorini, enjoyed a lovely lunch at a family-owned restaurant, and learned much about the history and culture of the island. Theodore was kind, informative, and attentive to make sure that we were safe wherever we walked. He also took great photos of us in the best spots in Santorini! It was a fabulous day!

5.00We had a great time on our 4 hour tour! Theo, our guide, was excellent. Felt like we’re friends at the end. He grew up on Santorini and had a lot of historical commentary and also a current cultural view of the island. Saw a lot of areas. Got out many times and got to stroll through a village and monastery. I highly recommend this tour.

5.00Theo was our tour guide and was absolutely wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable about the island and shared many interesting facts we weren’t aware of. He took us to all the places we requested plus many extras we didn’t know to ask for. He picked us up at our hotel, had water on hand, took us to get his favorite coffee then off we went on a grand adventure from one end of Santorini to the other.
Amazing tour!!

10/10 experience on our Honeymoon

5.0010/10 amazing!! Our tour guide Theo (Ted) took us to see the entire island during our half day tour. It was our honeymoon, and he went above and beyond, taking over 200+ pictures of my wife and I at all the beautiful landmarks. We even had the chance to stop and have a nice lunch overlooking the volcano while he graciously picked the car up (30 min walk away) after a wonderful stroll through Fira! Theo was also extremely knowledgeable about the islands history, vegetation, volcanic activity, religious significance, amongst many other things! We even got to ride back after stopping at the local brewery to sample some of their local offerings, per his suggestion! This was worth every penny and allowed us to feel like we were fulfilled in our exploration to Santorini in this one singular tour. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide! Thanks Theo!
