We had a great tour with our tour guide Chrysa! She customized our tour to see everything we haven’t seen in Santorini and even bought us water during our trip! She was very informative and knowledgeable about Santorini and made sure we hit all of the highlights of the island in the 6 hour timeframe we had. The tour did not feel rushed and I highly recommend to others!

This beautiful island was explored pretty well in 6 hours. We went from Fira to Oia and then had lunch in a seaside family restaurant.

Our tour guide was really good. He showed us various spots in Santorini and explained the history of each. Transportation was in a van that was private for us only.

Oia domes the rest of the trip we experienced the dirty van and our driver was tough to understand his English
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Good morning perhaps you are making mistake the car was spotless the guide you are too good English and showed you the best villages of Santorini .just you are misunderstood and from the first moment because the car was a little big .from the first moment we met you were rude without a smile and without joy to see our santorini .l believe that your life will be like that with a lot of anger every day ......

We had a very nice time. We expected a van but instead we ended up in a 5 seater car. This was not the most comfortable ride. It was extremely hot and we were sitting literally on top of each other. The driver was super nice. He took us to the black sand beach, the red sand beach, and Fira for sunset. He was very knowledgeable. The driver had a friend who owned a beach front restaurant. He got us complimentary beach chairs and umbrellas. We had a delicious dinner on the black sand beach. The driver took a bunch of photos of us at Fira at sunset. We got some amazing photos and then went back to the cable car area to do some shopping before heading back to the ship. I would not attempt to do so many stops in one day again. There just isn't enough time to thoroughly enjoy yourself when you are rushing from one place to another.

Wished we had more time to explore Santorini. Our guide waited for us for at least 1.5 hours. He also had a little gift for all of us.
Response from Host, Sep 2023

Astri, our knowledgeable and kind driver, provided an incredible tour of Greece's Santorini, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable experience. He picked us up on time, took us to unique places, and ended the tour at the beach. I recommend this company 100%.

Nikolaus assured us that with our ship’s tender and cable car delays - that all would be good and not to worry. Then Theodore was a great guide and host. He took us to traditional Oia and Santorini sites, and a fantastic lunch. He arranged for us to do everything on our wish list and went out of his way to assist us when one of us fell. He had first aid supplies and his wife even met us with ice and a towel on our return trip. We are so appreciative of all the support and consideration!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Thank you very much for your kind words my dream and the success of my work is that all the customers leave SANTORINI happy l.m sorry about the fact that you fell and hit .Next time you come to Santorini l buy coffee and food at my house .Best Regards Nikolaos Marinakis.
Michele_P, Jul 2023
Electra was great with the history but the aircon in the bus was not working and the day was. Wry hot with no relief
Response from Host, Jul 2023
l would like to thank you for the information unfortunately you fell on the hottest days of the summer with 46 degrees and you understand that the bus is made of sheet metal which gets hotter out in the sun the heat inside the car is multiplied .l was very pleased that you were happy with the trip and l hope the next time you come it will not be so hot Thank you very much Nikolaos Marinakis..

We were in 2 vans. Our tour guide left 3/4th way into the tour. The other tour guide in the other van did not speak English. Although where we went was beautiful, We had other family and friends that saw more exquisite sites on similar tours. It should have been planned out better. Otherwise, Santorini was beautiful but the tour guides could have done a better job
Response from Host, Jul 2023
l believe l did the best service for you l put you in two small vans because if l put you on a big 50 -seat bus you couldn't see any village Because the big buses can't go everywhere as you have seen the roads are very small and driving with minibuses is better .Now l think our English is perfect and l think something else your problem is that when we went wine tasting you thought that l had to pay for it l do not write in my program that l pay for wines .l write that there is free entrance to a winery .Unfortunately we pay for your mistakes .l did my best for you l saw all the villages you went to Red Beach and you ate very cheap and with very good food .and l repeat you problem was that you didh't get paid for the wines .Nikolaos Marinakis..

I can’t say enough how much my family and I enjoyed this tour! Emilio was our private tour guide and he did an amazing job in showing us around on what turned out to be a lot shorter than planned tour!
** A tip if you are arriving to Santorini by cruise ship…make sure you book your tender to the island as early as the cruise line allows, as it takes a lot longer than I expected it to and then you have to take a cable car up to the top before the tour can even begin ( which for us took 1 1/2 hours to even get on the cable car! This is by NO means a fault of the tour company, it’s just the way the island “works”! Any tour you’d take arriving by a cruise is subject to the same things. But to see the island it is so worth it!
Anyway back to the tour, so because of the circumstances listed above, we literally had a bit more than 3 hours to see as much as possible. Emilio did a fantastic job in listening to what we wanted most to see and then making suggestions to make it work. We loved it all and were so sad that it had to end! Thank you so very much Emilio!
Response from Host, Jul 2023
thank you very much for your kind words and for the explanation How can a passenger be able to make a tour in Santorini after the problems of the cable car I want me and Emilio to come the next time you come you will have a free meal for the hours you missed from Mr. Marinakis and Mr. Emily.Nikolaos Marinakis..

We made it to a few places, including Red Beach, the highest point in Santorini (which had great views) but we really wanted to spend time in Oia and barely had any time.
Our driver was great during pickup but never said a word or made any recommendations. He dropped us far away from places even though we had someone that used a cane and didn’t take into consideration the timeframe. We didn’t get any actual information about any places we visited. We asked some questions along the drive and he didn’t even respond.
Do not book this if you’re looking for any kind of guided experiences. It is just a private taxi. However, even all our taxi drivers gave us better information than Niko.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
l asked my driver to tell me what is going an about the problems you are writing to me annd he told me that the time you had was three hours .l understand that there's anxiety about the cable car coming back because there's a lot of people in the line and unfortunately you could not see all of Santorini .the village Oia and the red beach there is a problem and we neet to move on the see these two villages on foot and you understand if there are people with difficulty going on it's very difficult to see them .when you come to Santorini l can make one more excursion for free just to be in the morning time so you don't lose time with the cable car ...Nikolaos Marinakis.

The six of us had a wonderful private tour with Evie and the driver. It was on of the highlights of our trip. We were able to customize the trip to fit our group. Evie was super. She shared so much history and offered recommendations. It was a great day and our best private tour from our three week vacation!

Nick was a great guide. He was very informative and friendly. He had a great knowledge of the information. We really enjoyed him.
Tim_W, Jun 2023
Santorini is beautiful! Our guide spoke amazing English he waited 2 hours for us . Santorini in the process from the dock to get up is horrible . We waited 1.5 hours for the cable car to bring you up to the city . There were 4 big cruises at the port . The guide took us everywhere, his van was air condition with water ! If it wasn’t for him then Santorini would have been a huge bust !! We walked down to the tender which was fine but some people may not have been able . If you go to Santorini leave a lot of time to get back to the ship and wear hiking shoes! I highly recommend a guide!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
good morning Unfortunately the problem with the cable car is not mine ,it is the state and of our island .from me and from my company l am interested in doing the best service to make the customer have a good time .This is my business Now for the cable car waiting for it unfortunately l can't do much of anything .Beste Rgards.Nikolaos Marinakis..

Book this excursion now! The owner was wonderful and Electra our tour guide was awesome. They were very patient and accommodating.
Kay_S, Jun 2023
We had a wonderful day in Santorini! Our guide, Nickolaos Marinakis helped us plan the perfect day. He was waiting for us as we got off the cable cars. We were able to see so many beautiful parts of Santorini. He has a very comfortable van and navigated the driving expertly. We were free to stop and shop along the way and made sure we had a delightful day. Highly recommended! It was the highlight of our trip to Greece! Without his expertise we would not have been able to see and experience so many amazing things in one day!
Heather_K, May 2023
We had a wonderful time! We were 2 hours late due to the cruise tender and having to take the donkey up the stairs (this is probably the worst tender i have ever experienced on a cruise). But they were patiently waiting for our family. We redesigned the tour more to our family with smaller kids and they helped with suggestions! It was a shorter tour due to our own doing but it was wonderful and would use them again!
Brian_S, May 2023
We had a great time in Santorini. Getting from the boat to the place where we had to meet the guide was a challenge due to long lines and large crowds. Our guide did a great job of showing us around. One of the highlights was the lunch stop. We had a traditional Greek lunch that was great. I would recommend this excursion for anyone.
Karen_H, Dec 2022
I had such wonderful experience! Took so many beautiful photos of Santorini in many different perspectives. I highly recommend everyone to book this tour to get insight of this beautiful city knowledge and history.
Brian_B, Oct 2022
Nicholas was our guide and owner. He was prompt and when we arrived at the top of the cable car he was waiting for us. The tour was perfect. It was a private tour with my daughter and wife. You can customize. Nicholas knows and loves his country. He shouted us everything. We had time to shop and stay extra. The tour was built around our expectations. We invited Nicolas for lunch with us and now he is a friend. Could not have been more perfect. Don’t hesitate to book this tour.
Kristi_B, Oct 2022
We really liked the private tour and the price was better than the big cruise ship groups. We got to see and taste Santorini on our own time.
Rasha_A, Sep 2022
Nikolaos was the best tour guide we could ever ask for. He was patient abd listened to our needs and took us to all places we wanted to go and we literally finished the island in 6 hours. He also took us to a delicious restaurant in Black Beach and we really felt like we known him for a long time by the end of the tour.
Monica_M, Jun 2021
