Great experience with Maki’s!

Makis was an outstanding tour guide! He was kind, knowledgeable, and shared fascinating insights about Santorini and its rich history. He was flexible with our plans, made the day feel relaxed and personalized, and even arranged a fantastic lunch at a beautiful beach spot. He kept us refreshed with bottled water throughout the tour and did a wonderful job engaging everyone in our group, from the youngest to the oldest. We had an amazing experience and highly recommend Makis to anyone visiting Santorini!

Small Group Sightseeing Tour: All Santorini’s Treasures

Ingrid_D, Jul 2026

Beautiful views and local knowledge.

This was a really great way to see the island of Santorini and enjoy learning about it! Mary, our guide, knew everything we had questions about. Mary listened well, included the tour points of interest that were weather safe and customized part of the tour to our liking when we were the only three that booked it and high winds made it unsafe in some areas she hoped to show us. We were so impressed and appreciated her local knowledge!

Best of Santorini Private Shore Excursion with Local Driver-Guide

Charles_H, Jul 2026

Best Tour Guide and Private Tour Company over Two Weeks in Greece!

I cannot share enough positives about the experience we received from our tour of Santorini provided by Kallisti Private Tours. While most passengers on our cruise ship were displeased with their tour experience provided by the cruiseline, it was our favorite experience over two weeks in Greece. Theodore, our driver, was extremely informative, engaging, and knew how to navigate the city in efficient ways and avoid big crowds and long lines. We hit all of the typically crowded tourist areas before the crowds, took a fabulous winery tour and tasting, shopped where the Greek pottery is actually made, and ate at a great restaurant on the beech. Our deepest gratitude goes to Theodore and Kallisti Private Tours for a day of special memories. We give them our highest recommendation without reservation!

Small group tour, Wonderful guide

Wonderful small group tour in Santorini. Guide was friendly, spoke great English. There were 16 people in our group. We had a van with AC that was comfortable. Stops were nice. Enjoyed free time To explore. Enjoyed the black beach area where you could swim or grab a bite/drink at one of the many local restaurants along the beach. Great day in Santorini. Would definitely recommend a tour like this vs a ship tour where they have many more people and large tour buses. Enjoyed the smaller group.

Cooking Experience in our Cave Home by Petra Kouzina

Andy_H, Jun 2026

Experience of a lifetime! MUST DO!

If we could give Petra Kouzina more than 5 stars, we absolutely would! This cooking class was worth our entire trip to Santorini. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed like family. George and Paula are truly incredible people whose passion, vision, and love story shine through in every aspect of the experience. The food was beyond amazing—authentic, fresh, and some of the best we had during our time in Greece. But what makes Petra Kouzina so special is that it’s much more than a cooking class. It’s an unforgettable experience filled with laughter, culture, connection, and genuine hospitality. You can feel the heart and soul that George and Paula have poured into creating this experience, and it shows in every detail. We cannot recommend it highly enough. If you’re visiting Santorini, this is an absolute MUST DO. Seriously—if you skip Petra Kouzina, you’re missing out on one of the best experiences the island has to offer. Thank you, George and Paula, for the memories, the incredible food, and an experience we’ll never forget! ❤️Robin & Andy

RKSORCI, Jun 2026

Highly recommend

This tour is the perfect way to see all the key parts of the island. The small group size really enabled us to experience a lot of the island in a short amount of time. Our tour guide Theo was phenomenal. He truly customized the tour based on our interests and the other tours we were planning to take during our trip. Theo was friendly, informative, and made sure we had a memorable experience. We booked this tour on our first full day in Santorini, and it was the perfect way for us to get acquainted with the island!

Well worth it!!

Sara was one of the best guides ever. You must request her if you can. The tour is long and well worth the money. They will tailor to your desires. We wanted the local experience and stayed away from the super busy tourist spots. It was fantastic. We did go the 41 for lunch and that was a must do!! Overall fantastic day!
