- Oia - Oia is undoubtedly the most renowned village in Santorini, celebrated for its unparalleled beauty. Visitors will find an abundance of attractions to captivate them, including a breathtaking sunset, homes carved into the volcanic rock, iconic blue-domed churches, stunning vistas, and a serene atmosphere that will greatly reward those who explore this extraordinary location.
- Imerovigli - Heading northwest from Fira, one arrives at Imerovigli. Situated approximately 300 meters above sea level, Imerovigli is often called the “balcony of the Aegean Sea,” a title it truly deserves for offering the most magnificent view of the Aegean sunset. Additional attractions include numerous churches showcasing typical Cycladic architecture, notably the Church of Ay-Stratis and the Monastery of Saint Nicholas, as well as The Skaros Rock, where remnants of a medieval fortress can be found.
- Monastery of Profitis Ilias - Atop the mountain Profitis Ilias (Prophet Elias), the highest point in Santorini at 600 meters above sea level, stands a monastery bearing the same name. Even those who are not fond of photography will find it hard to resist capturing a few shots from this incredible vantage point.
- Castelli of Pyrgos - The village of Pyrgos encapsulates all the enchantment of Santorini, offering signature panoramic views on both sides of the island while preserving elements of Venetian influence. Traditional Cycladic houses and pathways encircle the old Venetian castle, providing a perfect blend of both worlds and making Pyrgos a must-visit destination.

Amazing experience - We had booked a 1/2 day private tour. Our driver Apostolis and guide Mary picked us up from the airport and took us on a scenic route showing us the prime spots of Santorini. We also stopped at various locations during the tour to capture some pictures and videos of amazing views. Both were very knowledgeable and friendly, highly recommended!

Greek- American Tour Guide, Themistoklis Kalivas - We did a 6 hour private tour and two airport transfers with Themistoklis (Themis) Kalivas in Santorini. He is a Greek American tour guide that speaks both languages. The tour was fantastic and Themis did an phenomenal job as our personal guide. Themis worked with us and gave us great options for us to chose from for our tour. We were able to plan an excellent personalized tour with his assistance. We visited Oia, Fira, Megalchori, Imerovigli, Firastefani, Santo Winery, and Pyrgos. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the sites and he took care of every detail for us which was great. Themis also shared detailed information and historical facts about the different areas which made it educational, too. He was very knowledgable, helpful, fun, considerate, and friendly. I highly recommend doing a tour with him. Themis is awesome! Schedule a tour with him; you will be happy you did!

Half day adventure in Santorini! - We had Panos as our guide for the half day in Santorini. Panos was very knowledgeable in the history of Santorini! My better half can become easily distracted and wants to modify the plan …. Panos was able to adapt to our changing plan because of the limited time we had, and be able to still provide us with excellent itinerary for us to enjoy ! Santorini was amazing ! Thanks u Panos !

Awesome! - Exceptional! If you want a private tour in an air-conditioned van to go to all of the spots that a tourist would like to go to… And have the tour customized to what you want to do while on the tour, this is the one to choose. MariaOut tour guide Maria was excellent! Take her recommendations and you will not regret it.

Excellent tour of the north side of the island - We enjoyed our tour of the northern side of the island complete with a great history lesson and wine tasting. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable of the subject matter and very accommodating. Would love more sightseeing of historical churches as we really loved seeing those. Excellent experience overall!!!!

Don't hesitate for a moment - excellent tour provided by skilled driver and tour guide - I am always happy to provide Trip Advisor reviews which are so helpful for all of us who travel. Our tour was a breeze to arrange from the start (we did it on-line from the US) and no detail was overlooked or missed on the part of Santorini Unique Experience Tours. We had a 4-hour tour which included a beautiful sunset view in a spot known only to a few with no crowds and the most enjoyable time. We were 4 women (family). Our tour guide, Eleni and our driver Alex were top notch, delightful personalities, long time Santorini residents and professional/informative tour from the first moment we entered the comfortable Mercedes Van for our tour. Don't hesitate taking a tour from them and I know their other guides (one who met us at the port) will be just as spectacular. Just do it!!!

Santorini half day tour - Our tour guide Arturo was the best. He was courteous and very informative. His vehicle was clean and kept cool so we were very comfortable. He showed us so many beautiful sites. I would highly recommend him for other tourists.

Magnificent Santorini - My wife and i along with another couple had an absolutely fantastic afternoon with our guide Martina.
Martina showed us local places on the island not on any normal tours and everyone we saw knew her and greeted us with smiles.
We went to a winery, a village on the way to Oia, the famed blue domes, and then stopped at a local restaurant for a tremendous dinner back in Fira.
Martina was the key and we all gave hugs upon departure. I would highly recommend the private tour and ask for Martina!
