    It was absolutely seamless to get picked up at the port then tinder to the bus location. Then we were greeted by a very energetic tour guide Yanni and our driver Taszos! Very well appointed Mercedes sprinter van! I had read another review on here that said they didn’t have good seats in the van but honestly everything to see was outside the van and Yanni made sure to show us all of it! He was very informative knowledgeable and friendly! And a great photographer as well! Taszos was always close with the van and even had cold water for us all as the temps did heat up! Then we were brought back to tinder back to the cruise port and felt like we had the best day!

  • Awesome tour!

    This tour was pretty interesting! We had 10 people in our nice Mercedes van and skip the cable car. Zeus was quite knowledgeable about the history, culture, and people of Santorini. The accommodations were top notch with the van and Cristos as our drive we were in good hands. We stopped at all the touristy spots with commentary on each location. We had a delicious lunch at a cozy place on the beach and then tendered back to our ship on time. If you want to skip the line for the cable car and drive the opposite way of all the crowds, this is the tour for you.

    We thoroughly enjoyed a fun and very informative day in and around Santorini with our guide and driver. Both were very friendly, very professional, and very, very knowledgeable about their home island. The tour was more extensive than I expected and our guide had a great sense of humour and an incredible affinity with the island. His stories were excellent - the locations he guided us to were picturesque and the meal at the beach was an absolute delight. Order the lamb chops only if you are hungry - they are many and they are delicious. Take this tour - please - you will not regret it.
