Amazing wine, food, views, and laughs - Theo gave a wonderful tour. Felt like we were traveling with family. I would highly recommend visiting Tinos as this island has its own little character. Amazing food and amazing food with amazing wine. Would do all over again

A wonderful glimpse of a magical island, from a warm and kind local - Denise was totally lovely and a great guide. She's very chill, very open. Knows the island backward and forward. Took us to a bunch of villages, told us about history and current issues, really gave us a sense of the culture of this special and remarkable island. Stopped for Greek coffee at a typical and authentic spot; the wine tasting was lovely (mostly for the views); and lunch was leisurely, delicious, and authentic. She also helped navigate us to some shopping on our way back. It was me and my two kids, ages 17 and 12, and Denise really made things appealing for them. Best part was her showing us the nooks and crannies of some of the villages, which are charming and mysterious in equal measure. Totally recommend!!

Best way to experience Tinos! - The perfect way to spend a day in Greece! Denise picked us up at the boat, took us to a coffee shop for pastries and wonderful coffee. She showed us her beloved island. We saw authentic island life. The winery provided excellent wine and cheeses for tasting. The highlight of our day was dinner at her and her husbands beautiful restaurant. The food was excellent and generous! Denise is a lovely woman and spending the day with her was a pleasure!

Great tour! - It was maybe the best tour I’ve ever been on. Tinos is the opposite of Mykonos. Stops at a local coffee shop, a great wine tasting, and highlighted by the best meal we ate all week at her husband’s restaurant. If you find yourself in Tinos, this is a must do

Great day trip - This was the best day in our trip to Greece. Athens is a great place for holidays but our day trip in Tinos was amazing. The tour was excellent for the beginning. Our tour guide picked us up from the hotel and everything was fully organized. He explained us all the tour schedule and what we expecting to discover. Tinos is a magnificent island and especially when you are in the vineyard for wine tasting with locals is a unique experience.
In Athens we ate wonderfully but in the traditional tavern with Greek "mezedes" we tried different flavors from local cuisine.
In my opinion this tour was definitely worth it!
