What are people saying about Santorini

Deirdre_O, Jun 2026

Michael, our guide, was...

Michael, our guide, was the best. We were late due to the long cable car lines and he waited patiently for us. He was very knowledgeable about Santorini and not only showed us the sights, but took us on “secret routes” so we could bypass the crowds and get the best views. I suffered with a bad knee that day, and he helped me up and down stairs, hills and on rocky paths. He accommodated our every wish, provided us with water and gave us each a little gift at the end.

Good way to see Santorini

Lovely Sara picked us up at the cable car exit and took us to air conditioned car. Her and Astri gave us plenty of geographical, cultural and historical information as we drove around and took us to the best spots for photos. In Oia we were able to get through the massive line and crazy crowd so very grateful to Sara we didn’t have to stand in that madness for too long. Great recommendations for ice cream and lunch was just delicious (we ordered too much) at the fish tavern. Nothing was rushed and very comfortable.

A Must Do Wine Tour

A fantastic wine tour and experience. The guide, Kristina, was knowledgeable and energetic and it was fascinating to learn about the unique terroir and cultivation of Santorini grapes We saw 3 great wineries but the highlight was the evening stop at Santos and the amazing sunset views of the Caldera. The food pairings for each winery was also excellent. I highly recommend this tour.

Santorini Tour

This was an amazing experience!!!!! Our guide, Anna, and driver, Thasos, were absolutely amazing. My husband and I feel like we were able to see so much of the island, enjoy the black sand beach, and learn about much of Santorini’s history. We thoroughly enjoyed this and highly recommend this to others!

Exclusive Santorini Flying Dress Photoshoot with Pickup

Christie_V, Jun 2026

Cruise ship guest /flying dress w/ family!

Was cruise ship passenger. They email u link for pickup at to of the cable car. You walk 1 min to “CY Teck” next to “Caldera yachting” and “cannabis shop volcano”. That’s the closest place where cars are allowed to drive. The streets do not have names which is very unique.. use Google Maps to find these locations for pick up. There is no name on the car but they did send the driver‘s name and license plate number which helps. It just depends if you have Internet access or cellular to get the email about the pick up or message on this Vistor. OK now that that is out of the way this was an absolutely amazing experience and I will post a still shot from the video that she airdropped me right after the shoot. The owner took our photos. There were 100 gallons to choose from and my daughter who is 11 and my husband hopped into a few photos with me so we could have family photos and that was no extra charge. I knew what color I wanted to wear ahead of time so they call or coordinated with me. It was absolutely beautiful. Everyone was so professional. There’s an actual studio shop where you pick out the dresses with pretty marble floors and air-conditioning. It was very lovely. There will be moments that you take pictures without your shoes on and the ground is a bit hot, but everything was so gorgeous. I highly recommend this experience. Even my husband loved it. Can’t wait for the pics in 4 days! They recommended a restaurant after they drove us back to the pick up location. We ate there did some shopping and then went back to the cruise ship and our day was done.

George is the best!

The tour was amazing and our tour guide, George, was the best tour guide we had during our stay in Greece. George was patient, kind, knew all the best places to visit on the island, and was extremely prompt in weaving us through the busy streets of Santorini. George is the best, Santorini is absolutely gorgeous, and we would recommend this tour and tour guide to any future visitors!

Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer

Rosa_G, Jun 2026

Exceptional experience!

It’s an experience not to be missed. The crew takes great care to make sure that everyone knows what to expect thru out the trip and that every passenger is careful navigating around the catamaran. The swimming was wonderful and the food very good. And the drinks too! The captain even stayed out longer so that we could see the full sunset because the clouds might clear up, which they did. It’s worth the price paid in my opinion.

Wonderful Experience of Santorini!!

This was a group tour for cruise travelers but it never felt crowded!! We had a wonderful time on the fancy shuttle bus, with some time to shop & dine in Santorini. Our guide & driver were very knowledgeable & gave us great insights! A HUGE plus to avoid the cable cars -- it is worth every penny!

Santorini Day Cruise

The crew took so much pride and care of the boat and it showed. Very clean. Towels were fresh, dry & clean. Gave detailed instructions for how to get around, where things were, how to use sunning decks, safety protocols for the passengers so everyone can have fun but not get hurt. Service excellent - crew very attentive. Food fresh & delicious

Had a great time sailing

We had an amazing time on the catamaran cruise! The weather was perfect and the hosts were great. There was grilled chicken and spaghetti pasta not BBQ but it was good nevertheless. Please be also mindful that there isn't self-serve drinks (water, soda or wine). You have to ask each time you want something to drink so I advice bringing your own container of water or any other drink of your preference. The stops along the way were a highlight. Lastly, shoes are not allowed on the boat so wear a pair you can easily slip on and off.

Excellent experience, highly recommend!

Excellent experience, highly recommend! The team was very accommodating. We were nervous about getting back to our cruise ship for the last tender and they made sure we had direct transportation after the catamaran. We were incredibly impressed with their service. The catamaran was really nice, clean, they cooked fantastic food, and taught us about all the locations we stopped at. Our boys, ages 13 & 11, had a great day!

Core memories made - sailing with stories and smiles

After seeing the highly rated tour online we booked and honestly - it truly is 10/10. Kostas and all of the crew were so friendly, made us feel at home whilst keeping us safe. Best bit was getting back on the boat after a swim to be handed a glass of cold white wine in the Greek sun - heaven! The BBQ was plentiful and delicious and the views and stories and insight about Santorini and the islands was wonderful. Can’t recommend it enough - thanks for the core memories guys!
