I was a bit stressed I would make the tour start as Santorini is a tender port but there was no problem. Vlictor our tour guide was excellent; he knew a lot of facts and interesting details. He was charming and very happy to answer questions and take photos! The tour was very thorough and interesting and gave a great flavour of the island. Mention must also be made of our driver ‘Angel’ who was excellent. Great experience!!

Great tour!

Our guide Alex was born in Santorini and returned here with his wife to show people his beautiful island. You can tell the pride and love he has for his home as he shares his personal knowledge of the amazing towns, beaches and other places to see and people that live there. We had a very pleasant day!

Great tour!

Had a wonderful tour that included many excellent stops outside of the normal blue domes of Oia. Learned and saw a lot more about Santorini than some of our friends on the cruise ship that took different tours. Also, the restaurant we ate at on the beach catered very well to my wife's Celiac disease providing advice and an excellent gluten free meal.

I had an amazing experience! I booked the 7:30am time slot and the driver picked me up at 7am after confirming my location the day before. I received a phone call 5 minutes before pickup. The girls took me and my husband on a short walk to some beautiful locations and showed me how to stand in various poses for the best look. They took many different pictures, more than I expected! They were so kind and friendly. It was one of the best experiences of my trip!

Jack_M, Jun 2026

Great day in Santorini!

We had a wonderful tour, we saw the entire island and had many stops where we took great pictures. We rode in a nice minibus, it was clean and spacious with good air conditioning. Our tour guide Sara made the tour even better. She was fun and energetic and had great knowledge of the island and its history. We can’t say enough good things about Sara, she is one of best tour guides we ever had. We learned a lot about Santorini in short time. We stopped for lunch at a great restaurant that she recommended and it was a highlight of our day. I would definitely recommend this tour.

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 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.

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!

Family tour of Santorini in comfort

Great tour of Santorini for family of 6. Easy transportation from the dock avoiding the cable car with a nice 15 min boat ride to another dock with bus. The bus was nice and comfortable with leather seats. Plenty of water available. Cruise guide was excellent and knowledgeable and was nice to help out with family photos. Didn't really understand timing for lunch and we ended up eating lunch much later than we would have liked ar around 2:30 p.m. I probably would get lunch at the first stop fast casual Greek food from a street vendor if I had to do it over again. Lots of good picture opportunities overviewing the caldera and some blue domed buildings. Had fun relaxing at the beach at the end of the day in the shade. The restaurant at the end of the tour was actually quite good.

Santorini Classic Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, Drinks and Transfers

Karissa_S, Jun 2026

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!
