Tour was great. Demi was very nice. Gave us a lot of information about the area. Took tons of pictures for us. Nico, who drives the van, was always there on time. Demi was great!

    • Santorini is a tender port. There are 2 ports in Santorini, Fira Old Port (where the cable car is, which takes you to Fira town) and Athinios (ferry and commercial pier). Please make sure to take the right tender and disembark to Fira Old port and not Athinios, as you'll will need to take the cable car to join the tour (cable car ride is couple of minutes).
    • Give yourself enough waiting time as you might encounter long lines to enter the cable car.
    • For morning departure: After embarking on your cruise ship, we suggest asking the cruise ship Guest Relation Officers for more details on how to have a priority disembarkation to be able to join the tour at 10:00.
    • Afternoon departure is ideal for guests whose cruise arrives in the morning or early afternoon and departs at 21:00 or later — perfect for those who prefer a relaxed morning before exploring Santorini.
    • This intimate small-group tour offers a relaxed, scenic introduction to Santorini, with a more personal experience than large bus tours.
    • This tour/activity will have a maximum of 20 travelers

    Such a great tour. The guide was wonderful and patient. Always making sure the group remained intact. We were late by 30 minutes but the group actually waited for us which we appreciated so much. Very friendly, very knowledgeable and overall great experience. Thank you

    It was an amazing experience and a great way to see the island on a limited amount of time. We had an issue with the tender of our ship taking longer than planned and they were very accommodating.

    Comprehensive & Educational tour of Santorini

    The tour was quite informative. Took all 4 hours. We got a break with the crowds being a little lighter. A fair bit of walking & it was hot. Our guide covered a lot of subjects. Felt like we saw all of the island.

    We had awesome day with Sofia. She’s very knowledgeable and flexible. She made sure that we get to see other sites in addition to what we paid for.

    Giorgia was fantastic!

    Kea_W, May 2025
    My sweet Giorgia thank you for the most beautiful time on the Island! Everyone was fantastic-Poppy the tour guide, John the driver with the best restaurant recommendations, Elena the photographer and Mary my flying dress expert! Poppy took me to underground cave! Giorgia was right beside me the entire time so I felt safe and secure. I will recommend her to everyone traveling to Santorini. She knows the island so well and can help navigate anything you choose to do.
