Santorini twice, will visit again

For a 5 seniors + 2 adults group, our guide Tasos took good care of us with a customize itinerary. Most of us visit Santorini back in 2022. However, we added 3 new spots, Red beach, light tower and submit on top of all the usual iconic photo spots. We are very happy with Tasos and company and will use him again.

If you're considering...

If you're considering exploring Santorini beyond the postcard views, this private tour is absolutely worth it. The flexibility was the standout feature—we never felt rushed, and the itinerary was tailored around our interests rather than following a rigid schedule. Our guide was happy to adjust the route based on what we wanted to see and also shared fantastic local recommendations that we would never have discovered on our own. It felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by someone who genuinely loves the island. By the end of the day, we realised Santorini is so much more than its famous blue domes and sunset viewpoints. From hidden villages and local stories to authentic spots away from the crowds, we left with a much deeper appreciation of the island. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience the real Santorini, not just the tourist highlights.

Worth the money

It’s a private tour so you can visit the places without having to wait for other people. Astri went above and beyond so that we can have a great experience. Astri knew how to take amazing pictures from different angles. We did the 4 hours experience. 3 hours would be too short. I would recommend 4 hours or more. Book this experience with confidence.

Great Day with Demetris in Santorini

We were docked in Santorini for the day with Royal Caribbean and arranged a 5-hour private tour through Viator. Our guide, Demetris, was exceptional. As a local resident, he was incredibly knowledgeable about the island and shared many personal stories about growing up in Santorini, which made the experience even more meaningful. The tour was fully customizable to our interests. We had a few specific locations we wanted to visit, and Demetris tailored the itinerary accordingly. He also recommended several additional sites based on his local expertise, including a scenic drive through the island and a visit to the beautiful Black Sand Beach. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and one of the highlights of our trip. I would highly recommend Demetris to anyone looking for a personalized, informative, and enjoyable tour of Santorini. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cruise day trip with Nicholas!

We did 7 excursions while on a cruise with Norwegian Pearl in late July 26. This was by far the best one. We booked the Santorini day trip as a private tour and had no idea what to expect. It was a great day. Nicholas was the best. Can’t say enough about how knowledgeable he was and friendly. He catered to our requests and made sure everyone was included. My best advice- book with Nicholas! We all got a big Greek hug when the day ended I think I even got two.

Fabulous morning exploring this beautiful island

We had the best morning with Babis, he picked us up from our hotel (and dropped us back there) and took us to a number of places on the island which gave us the perfect backdrop for views and photos. The week prior, we were in an email exchange so that he knew what it was we were interested in seeing and he then tailored our trip to us. He is really knowledgeable when it comes to Santorini and its history and knows all the little spots that we may never have found on our own. I would 100% recommend this trip - get it booked, you won't regret it! Babis is a fabulous guide.

Mary was a FABULOUS tour...

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.

We had a fantastic experience with the Captain and the crew. They were not only attentive but also very knowledgeable about Santorini. Thank you so much for an amazing time. They paid special attention to the teenagers and kids, and the kids did not want the cruise to end. We truly appreciate it.

Great tour

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 , ...

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. The wine is also something to try. Refreshing whites and pairs well with the food. Our driver was very informative,so we also got a history lesson during the day as well.

First time in Santorini

This fully customizable tour was absolutely the best! Our guide Chris was very knowledgeable about the local area and its history. After Paris and Rome this has been the highlight of our trip. A local winery tour, homemade treats and lots of pictures. It was a fabulous day in Santorini.

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.
