Stavros was a knowledgeable guide and fit the tour to meet our interests. He took us to the obligatory tourist stops for photo ops but also lesser crowded areas.
I wish we had a bit more time there, but that’s the nature of a shore tour

it’s a really good way to see the highlights of Santorini if you don’t have a full day. I left with plenty of photos, a few quiet memories by the sea, and the feeling that I definitely want to come back for longer next time.
Could've been just a smidge better.. But still love it

A bit more time at one spot, just enough to fully relax instead of switching locations too quickly. But even with that, we walked away smiling, camera full, and happy we chose this tour for santorini moment.

Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and attuned to the island's history and geography. They recommended a quieter, lesser-known winery for a short tasting. It was excellent advice, and it helped us avoid the peak crowds—something many visitors struggle with in Oia.
Meaningful tour!

it was every bit as magical as we hoped, the whitewashed houses, blue domes, and incredible caldera views. Stavros knew the quieter streets away from the crowds and showed us the perfect spots for photos (a few of which we’ll be framing when we get home!).
Unhurried, gorgeous, and perfectly paced!

I hopped off my cruise ship solo, a bit unsure about how to spend my day, and this turned into my favorite travel memories. I appreciate and thankful to Stavros who greeted me like an old friend, which set the tone for the whole adventure.
Slightly lost, totally worth it!

Yeah, chill day, some views, a beach maybe. Cut to me absolutely melting in the sun, running around oia trying to get the perfect Instagram shot while my guide patiently waited with cold water and zero judgement. If you're traveling solo and want to feel taken care of without being babied, this is the one.
What I liked most?

It didn't feel like a tour. It was just a chilled out day where someone else did the planning. They had water in van, even helped us squeeze in a beach visit, which my daughter loved.
Just a calm, beautiful day

My wife and I did this private tour on our first full day in Santorini, and honestly, it felt like the perfect way to ease into the island’s vibe. It didn’t feel like a tour. It felt like someone local showing us around their favorite places. No tourist traps, no rushing.
Combination of relaxation with exploration

At the port, we were greeted by our friendly tour guide, and then began a scenic journey to explore the beauty of Santorini. Oia's beaches were amazing. Overall, it was an adventure that perfectly combines relaxation with exploration. A fabulous day in one of Greece's most beautiful locations.
