5.00We loved our 4h visit. We have had a lot of information about the history of Santorini up to now. We were able to admire the city of Oia and different views of the island. We were even able to taste the grapes they use for wine design....it was delicious! Our best excursion with Viator! We highly recommend this excursion for unforgettable memories.
We Heart Santorini and Aphrodite!

5.00What an amazing day with Aphrodite! Such a wonderful way to see Santorini in short amount of time... Aphrodite's knowledge of the area and personal connections made it so special. She was very understanding and patient in waiting for us to start the tour, as the cable car line was backed up by cruise passengers that day. She found us the best spots for photos, taking many herself and airdropping at the end of the day. She then ensured we knew when to jump back in the cable car line to ensure we tendered back to our ship on time. Overall, we were blown away by the history and beauty of Santorini and would recommend Aphrodite to anyone considering escaping the big tour busses and wanting a more personal experience and bang for your buck!
Amazing!

5.00Since before our tour, everything was very well organized and we were given all the information that we would need, like that we would need to take a cable car up the mountain when we got to port. Our guide George was very friendly and informative. Everything he explained was very relevant, including the history and life in Santorini. He also asked what we preferred to do - if we wanted to go to the beach or to ruins and was very kind to take us to the Akrotiri ruins which were sooo interesting!
