Best Tour!

Absolutely incredible tour. Best way to see the whole island and even get a swim in at some of these amazing beaches. Our guide was adaptable to our interests which led to a great mix of history, beautiful beaches and more technical driving - all and all a great time and a major highlight of our time in Santorini. If you want to see parts of the island you’ll never see on your own then sign up for this!

Secluded Black Beach Horseback Riding Tour in Santorini

Jennifer_G, Nov 2025

Wonderful stable!

This was such a fun experience - the owner is so incredibly kind and knows where to stop the horses right on the beach for great photos (bring your phone so he can take your photo). It took us a minute to find the entrance but we made it with no problems and we ended up with a private ride because no one else had booked that time slot. The view of the sea and the rock walls are so pretty. Don't forget your knees and backside are going to be sore! But it was so fun to get back on the horse after so many years. I can tell they are really taken care of well here.

Santorini: 4hr Small Group Caldera Hike from Fira to Oia

Sophia_S, Oct 2025

Excellent service

This was such an awesome experience. The walk itself was a beautiful experience but unfortunately the weather was not on our side (it was still mesmerising). However, the hospitality that Elle and Victoria showed to us after we were drenched was heartwarming. They provided us with warm towels and a ride back to our respective hotels. They went above and beyond to look after us and make sure we were comfortable. Hats off to you both. I will definitely be rebooking with you next time I come :)

Must do!

This was such a great experience. They do a great training at the start and make sure everyone is comfortable. They break you up into two groups. Pablos was our guide and he was so amazing. We stopped at amazing places we didn’t know about and it was super safe and fun. I will definitely do this again!

Santorini Sea Kayak - South Discovery, Small Group incl. Sea Caves and picnic

Faisal_A, Sep 2025

The instructor delivered...

The instructor delivered the information precisely and clearly. The experience of paddling all the way to the black beach and the caves as well were amazing. The picnic was amazing that included greek style snacks. They have a quote which is “come as a stranger and leave as a friend” that I liked and it is true as we came as strangers and left as friends! Definitely recommend this one!

Santorini Highlights Small-Group Tour with Wine Tasting option

Cheryl_B, Sep 2025

Such an enjoyable day!!!

This day tour exceeded our expectations!! Yota and Demetrius were fabulous!! Yota provided us with so much information about life in Santorini, she was extremely personable and we never had the feeling that this was the typical scripted tour. She answered every question that anyone in the group had. We were able to see most of the island and get a true taste of areas outside of the tourist locations. She knew secret photo spots that were not crowded for photos. The winery was beautiful and the perfect last stop on the tour. Such an enjoyable day, I highly recommend!!!!

Private Cultural Villages Sightseeing & Akrotiri Excavations

Jen_M, Aug 2025

A great experience!

This tour was fantastic. It’s easy to get caught up in the photogenic magic of Santorini, but there is so much culture on the island and this tour was perfect to experience all of the culture the island has to offer. And Akrotiri was amazing to see. Our guide, Mike, was native to the island, extremely knowledgeable and so, so nice.

Archaeological Bus Tour to Akrotiri Excavations & Red Beach

Yandira_C, Jun 2025

Perfect way to see the villages

The tour has a great pace. Tania was funny, enthusiastic, welcoming and warm. The driver Dimitris was amazing traveling thru those narrow roads. We were given enough time at each spot, akrotiri blew my mind ( the tour guide was very knowledgeable) , Megalochori stole our hearts.The tour ends with a stop at Perissa which was refreshing although that area of Perissa ( north) isnt the best.
