4.00Guide was very good, but there were so many people in Santorini, it was not enjoyable. I honestly felt claustrophobic with the closeness of the buildings and streets .

5.00The trip to Santorini was amazing Our tour guide was professional, personable and knowledgeable. Joanna was a native of Santorini and shared that her relatives once lived in the Cave homes in the mountains She was so proud of her heritage and shared restaurants and the best places to purchase the Basket Wines grown locally . I am partially disabled due to an accident . Her tour incorporated my disability respectfully.My other friends from my cruise chose a different tour group and did not get the same experience Ask for Joanna and Rena ( The driver )
