What are people saying about Santorini

Kristen_M, Jul 2026

Ask for Kostas, he is the best!

If you’re considering booking a private tour in Santorini, do yourself a favor and request Kostas! My husband and I booked a 4-hour private tour, and it ended up being one of the absolute highlights of our trip. Kostas took the time to customize the tour based on what we wanted to see, while also introducing us to places we never would have discovered on our own. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Santorini’s history, culture, and traditions, but what really made the experience special was how easy he was to talk to. It felt like exploring the island with a local friend. One of our favorite moments was when he took us to see the island’s unique vineyards before bringing us to an amazing winery to watch the sunset. He explained how the vines are trained into basket-shaped circles to protect the grapes from the strong winds and how they rely on the morning dew for moisture because Santorini receives so little rainfall. It was fascinating to learn how these unique growing methods shape the island’s world-famous wines. This wasn’t just a sightseeing tour—it was an unforgettable experience. Kostas’ passion for Santorini and his genuine hospitality made all the difference. We would book this tour again without hesitation and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a personalized, informative, and memorable way to experience the island.

Mary was a FABULOUS tour guide. She is knowledgeable and personable and our 5 hour tour allowed us to find all of the best photo spots on the island. And Mary acts as photographer too! Last stop was at a local restaurant down by the black beach and it was a great ending to our day.

Around Santorini

Trip with Giorgio was interesting and full of history. We practically saw the whole island, the different towns and beaches. Time was given for sightseeing, photos and some shopping. We were taken for lunch at a local seafood restaurant, and it was excellent. Would recommend the company and the tour guide

Great tour for family of 5

This is a great tour if you prefer small, private tours over the larger group tours and want to get a really good overview of the island. We did the 5 hour tour and really enjoyed the sites we got to see. When we stopped in the local village, we ended up eating lunch there so we didn’t get to see the red beach or black beach, so timing and the amount of things to see is really up to you, which is nice. Zafiris, our tour guide, was really knowledgeable and I learned a lot about Santorini from the tour.

Best Time in Santorini!

Theo was our driver for the day and was so friendly and knowledgeable. He took us to all the places we wanted to see and a couple extra that he recommended for great picture spots. The whole day was a fabulous experience! Theo made us feel safe and comfortable and gave us some cool history of the island, culture, and people. 10/10 recommend!!! In fact, our big group that did other excursions were a little jealous of the gorgeous pictures we got in Oia and Perissa Beach! Just book it!

Excellent experience, highly recommend

Davide did a fantastic job helping us not only see the sights but avoid the crowds and customize the experience to do what we wanted. He was engaging, personal and an expert in all the stops proving interesting information without making it feel like a he was reciting something. He was one of the best guides I've ever had. Private AC van is only way too see the island, especially if coming during peak summer. Definitely start as early as you can in the morning to beat crowds. Highly recommend.

Lisandros was very knowledgeable and flexible. We took the private tour of Santorini for 8 hrs. At the beginning, we highlighted the points we wanted to see and Lisandros added some hidden gems around the island. He was extremely informative and engaging. Highly recommend Lisandros and the tour company.

Fantastic guide and a wonderful day on Santorini

I hope you are able to be with the same guide we had - Elias. He was amazing and shared many interesting sites and stories with us. Santorini was very charming and it was made even better by being set up with a local expert. I highly recommend booking a private tour with this company if you are able. Lastly, the vehicle was very comfortable, even on the narrow roads that were everywhere!

We had an amazing Santorini tour with Fon! He did a fantastic job as both our tour guide and driver. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. The tour was a great way to see the whole island, including many beautiful spots we might have missed on our own. Our entire family had a wonderful time, and we highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Santorini. Thank you, Fon, for making our trip so memorable!

Great experience , incredible views. The food is fantastic, the hospitality is 2nd to none. We travel many places and this place will not disappoint. Lots of shopping, not too pricey.

Santorini Beyond the Postcard

We had an amazing guided tour of Santorini with Sara and Stelios. The experience was very personal, thoughtful, and rich in details. It was much more than just seeing the famous views. For anyone who wants to understand Santorini beyond the obvious postcard image, this tour offers a deeper look into the island’s culture, history, landscape, and everyday life. Sara and Stelios shared stories and insights that made the experience feel authentic and meaningful. It was a beautiful way to connect not only with the place, but also with the people and the soul of Santorini.
