  • Lovely experience!

    Anna the guide was terrific! I loved not dealing with crowds. I would have liked more time to relax at the beach. I do blame some of the issue was people on the van that didn't follow directions. We wouldn't have seen nearly the amount of the city without this tour.

  • Stress free day in Santorini!

    What a wonderful way to see Santorini without the crowds and fighting the cable car! We had such an enjoyable boat ride as we made our way from the cruise ship...so easy to find our tour. Lena was great at explaining life on Santorini and showed us so many sights...from the lighthouse to the black sand beaches. The time at each stop was just right and we had plenty of time for lunch and sights. The tour ended in Santorini where we could shop, enjoy a drink and the sunset. I can highly recommend this tour.

  • Tough port, beautiful island

    I’m not altogether sure that skipping the cable car is such a great idea. We took a tender from the ship to the port, then had to wait for another boat to take us to where the bus is, and it took a long time. That cable car looks like a great adventure but then again everybody may not like it. Santorini is beautiful, but there’s really not that much to do. Our guide Tasos was very sweet and did a good job. Our stops were not that impressive so I’m not too sure what to think about Santorini …maybe a do over is in order!

    Tasos was a great tour guide. Guided us through the very crowded streets with tons of tourists without incident. He knew all of the best spots for us to get pictures and offered to take the pictures to get the best results and positioned everyone. Gave great explanations of the region and welcomed us graciously.

  • Too much crammed into too little time for cruise pitstop

    For a one-day cruise pitstop, too much was crammed into this tour so it was hard to enjoy much. It was advertised as a small group tour with a max of 16 but there were more people on our 'mini' bus. Also, there were about 12-15 other mini buses, as well as large buses running tours at the exact same time, pretty much going to the same places. Too many people! Two tenders takes a long time, and on the way back we had to wait for the large ferry to unload and load before we could get on our boat for our tender. Oia was jammed with people and it was HOT. Unfortunately this took away from the beauty of the town that would be best enjoyed by staying at one of the small resorts for a few days. We were disappointed, but did have a drink and nice snack overlooking the water and resorts. The pitstop was very short - 1 hour. The two additional 'photo stops' should have been omitted to allow more time in the other destinations. Every other tour was also there taking photos individually of every group on their buses so this was way too time consuming and felt super kitschy. We wish we would have gone straight to the black sand beach to relax and have a nice lunch (which we did...but again, it was for 1 hour or less). The area was nice. It was also nice to walk through the other small village on this tour, but at the end of tour, we just wanted to get back to the cruise ship. The tour was as advertised, the guide and driver were fine, and the vehicle was comfortable, but there was a lot of driving time with surprisingly little to see along the drive. This is our family's opinion (two 60 year olds and one 26 year old). Also of note, we generally prefer private tours but because it was too complicated (maybe impossible) to get to the other port via private tender to 'skip the cable car' we opted for this tour.
