Santorini

Salife_s, Jul 2024

Learning some of Santorinis history, pistachio trees and the oldest church in Santorini. Seeing the whole Santorini on top of Pyrgos and old village. Most of all, doing all this with my 20 year old and she had a blast, partly because of Tanya! Thank you Tanya and Stephanus.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Dear Salife, Thank you for your fantastic review and for taking the time to share your experience with us. The view from the top of Pyrgos and the old village is indeed breathtaking. It's wonderful to know that your 20-year-old had a blast during the excursion. Providing enjoyable experiences for families is one of our top priorities, and we're thrilled to hear that we achieved that for you. Thank you once again for your kind words. We look forward to welcoming you and your family on another adventure soon!

GOOD TOUR

RAMONE_R, May 2024

Tour was ok , the only claim is that when we arrived at 8.00 pm to Santorini the guide told us they had to leave in the Tour office and not in the meeting point as per booked because the bus could not enter on this area, so we had to walk more than 1 km with high winds and cold temperature seeing other tourist buses crossing on the way.?????

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Ramone, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are delighted that you enjoyed the tour. However, we apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your return trip when the bus could not reach your hotel. Ensuring our guests' satisfaction is our top priority, so we promptly looked into the issue. The disruption was caused by the Good Friday procession, a significant event in Greece, which unfortunately coincided with your return time. We regret that the driver did not fully explain the situation to you. Thank you once again for your feedback. We hope this incident will not deter you from booking with us in the future.

Amazing sunset but be there 1-2h in advance

Dumitriu_A, Jul 2023

Nice villages to pass by, the tour guide was very well trained and explain everything, the sunset is amazing but be on the sunset boulevard 1-2h before and if you can,go to a terrace (but they are very expensive)

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Dear Dumitriu, We are thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time on our tour. Thank you for your compliments and your constructive feedback. We always aim to offer the best service and experience for our guests, and we value your input on how to make it even better. We are happy that you got to witness the stunning sunset in Santorini, which is one of the most iconic sights in Greece. We hope to welcome you back soon.

The tour is off beaten...

sovnatasha, Jun 2022

The tour is off beaten trucks, our guide Tanja is the best! Very deep knowledge of history of the region, traditions and culture of Santorini, she was. brilliant! Now about the description of the tour on Viator.com site- it is simply not true and very misleading! First of all this is a bus tour, not a small group minivan tour! Secondary- the tour is NOT SUITABLE FOR PEOPLE USING A STROLLER!!!!! Not at all!!! The website says it is suitable! We were in a deep trouble and only could manage the trip with the help from the people of the group , Tanja and our drivers! And I want to say a big big thank you to them all!

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Dear sovnatash, Thank you very much for your valuable feedback, We are very glad that you were pleased with the guide and the driver of the tour. We always aim for the best quality for our guests. Regarding the problem you had with the stoller this was the first time anyone has complained about this. Maybe it was a problem because of the many parked vehicles . However, we have changed the description of the tour and it no longer appears that it is suitable for guests with a stroller. We hope to see you again soon. Thank you,
