5.00Our private “Secrets” tour with our guide Xenofon (Fon) far-exceeded our expectations. He took us off the beaten path to hidden gems in Santorini that we would have never seen and even added to our stops to see places that weren’t on the tour. The food at the restaurant was fantastic (tomato fritters and eggplant were our favorites) and the service was great. We had a few personal modifications due to dietary restrictions and mobility issues and Fon went above and beyond to make everything work perfectly. The secret sunset viewing was the highlight— the photos don’t do it justice. Thank you, Fon!

5.00Mike was a great guide. He has some great insights about the island and was fun to travel with. The highlights for us were exploring the labyrinthian Emporeios and eating incredible seafood from The Dolphins Restaurant.

5.00Fotis was an excellent guide, and this tour was amazing. It is for anyone who is looking to get away from the crowds and explore parts of Santorini that are also beautiful and more traditional. It requires a lot of walking, but is well worth it! I am so thankful for Fotis.. he really went above and beyond, tailoring the tour to our needs. He personalized everything and made sure we were comfortable at dinner too - he picked a great spot and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour and Fotis to anyone visiting Santorini!
A wonderful tour of Santorini

5.00Fotis was the best tour guide! From the beginning he was very open to answering any and all of our questions. We got see parts of the island we otherwise wouldn’t have. It was wonderful. He took us to a winery called the Art Space which truly was a magical experience.
Such a great experience!

5.00Fotios took me on this wonderful trip over the island. I got the chance to see many local villages and other great Santorini spots that most tourist don’t’ know of. Besides the sunrise tour of Fotios, which I also highly recommend, this tour made me see a lot of the Southern part of the island. We rounded off with a lovely dinner at the waterside. Fotios is a very safe driver and has many interesting facts to tell about the island. He made sure I will remember my time on Santorini. Thank you Fotios!
