Excellent communication. On time pick up. Nikos was an excellent guide providing local context that added depth to the beautiful sights. He knew the best locations to take pictures and a local roadside bakery for an excellent lunch and clean restrooms😊. Overall a 10 out of 10 for Niko and a wonderful and memorable tour..

Meeting and Pickup

Pickup points

Select a pickup point

Pickup details

Important Cruise Info Meeting Point: For cruise passengers, the default pickup is the Old Port — where your ship's tender drops you off. A crew member meets you onshore with a sign showing your name, so there's no navigating the cable car alone or hunting for your driver. Getting Up to Fira: The Old Port has no road access, so you reach Fira by water taxi or cable car. We can arrange a private water transfer for an additional €40 — fast, scenic, and no queue. Prefer not to? Take the cable car for €10 per person. Either way, we coordinate the timing around your tour (the shared water taxi runs about once an hour). Running Late? No stress — message us and we'll adjust your pickup. We stay in contact throughout your visit. First Time in Santorini? We've guided thousands of cruise passengers smoothly from ship to sightseeing. Just ask — we're here to help.

The best of Santorini

Anita, Jul 2026
Our trip to Santorini was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to Dimitris, our incredible driver and guide! Not only was the driving stress-free in the summer heat, but his local knowledge brought the island to life. Engaging, professional, and deeply passionate about the island, we couldn't have asked for a better host. Thank you for making our time here so special!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that Dimitris helped make your visit to Santorini so memorable. His passion for the island, local knowledge, and genuine care for our guests are exactly what we hope every traveler experiences. We're delighted you were able to relax, enjoy the stunning scenery, and make the most of your time on the island without the stress of navigating the summer crowds. Thank you for choosing VIP Transfers and Tours Santorini. It was a pleasure being part of your visit, and we hope to welcome you back to Santorini one day! Warm regards, VIP Transfers and Tours Santorini Team

Excellent Driver and Guide

William_H, Jul 2026
The instructions on Viator are a bit confusing about meeting the Driver, especially when the traveller does not know Santorini. We had to call the customer service phone twice for absolute clarity. Our driver arrived early, and we spent a very pleasant 4 hours with her. There was no language barrier. She was very informative and accommodating. Santorini is warm and very crowded, so the 4 hour highlights trip was the perfect amount of time. Even with moderate walking, it’s tiring. Santorini is stunning!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the meeting instructions and understand how navigating Santorini for the first time can be a little confusing. We'll certainly keep your comments in mind as we continue improving the information we provide to our guests. We're delighted to hear that, once you met your driver, everything went smoothly and that you enjoyed a relaxing and memorable tour. It's wonderful to know that her knowledge, flexibility, and warm hospitality helped make your time on the island so enjoyable. Santorini can indeed be busy, especially during the cruise season, and we're glad the 4-hour private tour gave you just the right balance of sightseeing and comfort. Thank you once again for choosing VIP Transfers and Tours Santorini. It was a pleasure being part of your visit, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in the future! Warm regards, VIP Transfers and Tours Santorini Team

Awesome experience!

Joanne_H, Jun 2026
This was an awesome experience! Our cruise ship changed the order of the stops on short notice due to a strike & this tour company graciously changed the tour I had booked to the new date we would be in Santorini. It was a wonderful way to see Santorini & our guide Paulina was fantastic! Would highly recommend!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your wonderful review! Travel plans do not always go as expected, especially when cruise itineraries change at the last minute, so we're delighted that we were able to adjust your reservation and help everything come together smoothly.

Highly recommend this tour!

Alex_B, Jun 2026
After doing some research we found this company for our family of 6 (with a toddler). From start to finish it was so easy and pleasant working with them. For tour guide we had George. Guy is a top notch. Very knowledgeable, pleasant, funny. 6 hour tour was great. He took us to the best spots on the island and knew how to avoid crowds. Very happy and would recommend them to everyone. They even had a car seat for our 4 year old. Also, price was very affordable as well!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're especially pleased to hear that your family had such a great experience exploring Santorini with George. Traveling with children requires a little extra planning, so we're delighted that everything—from the car seat arrangements to the itinerary itself—helped make the day comfortable and enjoyable for everyone. George will be thrilled to hear your kind words. His ability to combine local knowledge, humor, and careful planning while avoiding the busiest crowds is exactly what helps create memorable experiences for our guests. We also appreciate your comments about the value of the tour. We believe that a private experience should be both personal and accessible, allowing guests to enjoy Santorini at their own pace without the stress of navigating the island on their own. Thank you for trusting us with your family's day in Santorini and for recommending us to future travelers. We hope to welcome you back to the island one day! Warm regards, The VIP Transfers and Tours Santorini Team

Way to See Santorini

Joanne_A, Jun 2026
Dimitris was amazing. We saw the highlights of Santorini plus other places off the beaten path. He knew shortcuts and minimized our being amongst the crowds of tourists. He was a kind guide and photographer. We have over 60 photos together thanks to Dimitris. Cannot recommend enough!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for your fantastic review! It sounds like you discovered one of the best-kept secrets of Santorini—having a local guide who knows exactly when and where to go. Avoiding the crowds while still experiencing the island's most beautiful highlights can make all the difference, and we're delighted that Dimitris helped you enjoy Santorini in such a relaxed and authentic way. We especially loved reading that he doubled as your photographer! Some of the most treasured souvenirs from a trip are the photos that capture special moments together, and we're thrilled that you returned home with so many wonderful memories from your day on the island. Dimitris will be very happy to hear your kind words. His goal is always to help guests experience Santorini through the eyes of a local while creating a fun, comfortable, and memorable day.

We had Chris, as our our guide. He was excellent! He's knowledgeable! I asked about the wine vineyards. Chris made an unplanned stop to investigate 🔎 the way the grape baskets are nestled into the ground to protect the grapes 🍇 plus take pictures.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. You’re absolutely right by late November many shops and hotels begin to close, but this quieter season also reveals a very special side of Santorini. The island becomes peaceful, uncrowded, and wonderfully authentic, allowing visitors to enjoy the caldera views, villages, and pathways almost entirely to themselves. We’re glad you appreciated this unique charm, and we truly thank you for choosing our company. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Warm regards, The V.I.P. Team

Our driver took us all over the island. She shared some history and made sure we got to good spots for photos. She accommodated our needs.
