Top Santorini Private Sightseeing Tours

Wow! We saw the best of Santorini! We walked a lot! The beauty of Santorini is it's views! Seeing the blue domes was beautiful! The black sand beach was amazing to see. Then we capped off our trip at the Venetsano's Winery for a wine tasting. Our guide, Mary, was knowledgeable and really loved showing off Santorini!

Great day! We decided to ferry day-trip to Santorini (from Naxos) & book a guide on very short notice, and we’re so glad we did! Giorgos was excellent! From picking us (and dropping us back off) right at the ferry, to driving & walking us through all the best, most incredible sights (castles, villages, caves, beaches), to reserving a front row seat at a fabulous winery for wine tasting & treats…our day (only 5-hours, but seemed so much longer with all we were able to see & do) is one we won’t soon forget!

Orestis aka Luigi, was very professional, knowledgeable, and flexible. He communicated well, initially via WhatsApp about meeting time and even possibly meeting earlier, is desired. I booked the 4-hour tour, hoping it would be enough for my mother and aunt, but not too long of a tour, as well. Luigi kindly asked if there was anything we wanted to see in particular, but we went off his recommendations. First, he took us to a church nearby with an overlook of most of the island and gave us a brief and informative history of Santorini. After taking some scenic photos there, he drove us to an area with black volcanic sand, while telling us about how the grapes and other vegetables are grown on the island. Unfortunately, my mother is sensitive to windy roads despite Luigi’s normal driving. And some medications for her health didn’t help. Luigi provided chilled bottled water and tissue. So, we had to cut the tour to just over 2-hours. I would definitely return to go back on a tour with Luigi! Just note, there is plenty of walking with both up and down hilly terrain, especially if you want to see certain attractions/views. If you’re not used to that, again, Luigi, we’ll happily tailor the tour to whatever you’d like! & he mentioned a 4-hour tour can get almost two-thirds of the island explored. He’s wonderful, accommodating, and patient, and I highly recommend despite the shortened tour.
