The Perfect Wine Experience in Santorini!

5.00We went on this wine tour and I couldn’t recommend it more—it was one of the highlights of our trip to Santorini! We're not wine experts, but we learned so much about the unique wines of the island. The selection of wineries was fantastic, and the entire experience was handled professionally from the very beginning of our planning to the day of the tour. Our guide was a certified sommelier who picked us up directly from our hotel. He led us on an absolutely perfect private tour—informative, relaxed, and beautifully curated. A must-do experience if you're visiting Santorini!

5.00This was not just an ordinary tour — it was the best experience I had in Santorini! From the very beginning, communication with the tour operator was excellent; they arranged the pickup and handled all the logistics perfectly. In just three hours, I felt like I had taken a mini, yet thorough, course on both the island and the unique wines of Santorini. Our guide, Yiannis, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly — he is a certified sommelier and clearly passionate about sharing his expertise. I still email him for wine advice! Whether you're a wine lover or simply curious, I strongly recommend taking this tour if you're in Santorini.
Perfect in every way possible

5.00The tour was amazing. We visited three vineyards. We’re given a history of Santorini wines and winemaking with all the local backstories. Our guide was an extremely likeable, down to earth sommelier. He was interested in personalizing the tour for each small group. You can tell he takes pride in his family owned business. Would not hesitate in booking this tour again.
