Day of fun and Santorini - We booked this tour due to our limited time on Santorini and thought it would allow us to see more of the island more quickly. It worked exactly as we had planned. Our guide Gabriel picked us up right on time and we were off on a day of adventure. He offered many local areas to eat at and tour that we would not have otherwise known about. It is completely tailored to what you want to do. We even ran back to our hotel quick to shower and change clothes prior to dinner. We couldn’t have been happier With this excursion.

Unforgettable Santorini Day Tour with Christine – Stunning Views, Wine, and Personalized Guidance - We had a wonderful full-day tour of Santorini with Christine as our guide. She was incredibly personal, friendly, and knowledgeable—especially about the island’s rich history and its vineyards. Christine helped us plan the perfect day, offering suggestions when we weren’t sure where to go. We visited the iconic Three Bells, the picturesque village of Oía, and enjoyed a wine tasting at Gaia Winery. The tour was filled with breathtaking views and great company. Highly recommend!

Kristine was an excellent tour guide! - We had a fantastic day with Kristine as our tour guide during our family vacation in Santorini! Her extensive knowledge of both popular attractions and hidden gems made our experience truly special. She skillfully navigated the island, ensuring we avoided the crowds and fully enjoyed each location. Kristine was incredibly accommodating, focusing on what our family wanted to see, and her warmth and kindness really shone through, especially with our children. Our six-year-old was so taken with her that he held her hand for the entire three-hour tour! I highly recommend Kristine to anyone looking to explore Santorini; she made our day unforgettable!

Best way to see Santorini and Great Wine Too!! - What a great day!! We stopped in Santorini Greece as our first stop on our 10 day cruise. It was very easy to meet our tour guide Kristine exactly where they said they would meet us. Kristine and George (our driver) took us all over Santorini. Kristine was an amazing tour guide and so knowledgable about the island. There was 10 of us and she met all our wants and needs. Going to the winery on the beach was amazing. I would recommend this tour to anyone. We fell in love with Santorini and cannot wait to return.

Awesome experience! - We did the 1/2 day private tour and it was awesome. Our guide Angelo was fun and engaging and flexible. We met our tour 2 hours late due to delays from the cruise ship. I chatted with the tour operator during this time and they assured me they would still accommodate us and meet us once off the ship which was so great when we were stressing we had missed our tour. Then Angelo had recommendations based on our new timing and what we would enjoy most. Took us to places a bit off the beaten path where we weren’t with a tonne of people and enjoy ourselves. Highly recommend.

Great day tour in Santorini!! - We had an amazing time with Dimitris spending the day exploring Santorini!! He showed us all of the key places on the island, gave us time to explore on our own and was incredibly easy and fun — and he has a wealth of knowledge about Santorini. Such a great day!!

Full day in Santorini - Dimitris was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable with the history of the island. He took us to two wineries, toured the island, and we still had enough time to experience a local brewery! Dropped off at the cable car with no problems and pick up was a breeze. I have traveled to many destinations across the world and I can say this was a top notch tour!

Terrific Guide! - This was a wonderful experience and I am so glad we made arrangements for this tour. We only had one day in Santorini from our cruise ship. Kristine was our guide and George was our expert driver. Kristine helped us craft the perfect day. A quick visit to Oia before all the crowds - a lovely walk through Megalochoria and a fabulous visit to a family vineyard (Gavalas). Kristine is an expert in Santorini wines and led us through a wonderful sampling of the best wines from the island. We also visited the black sand beaches. She was flexible and knew the best way to enjoy the bounty of an island that deserves way more than one day. A+ Γεια σας!
