Great way to see Santorini - Great value for money, plenty of time spent in each location with information provided by our lovely guide Christine. The only ‘people’ delay we experienced was after the archaeological guided tour - this took an hour and left only 5-10 mins for some to grab a snack and toilet break. The coach driver, Charlie?, was prompt on pick ups, we weren’t left standing in the sun. The only thing I wish o had know was one of the stops for lunch would have allowed for a dip in the sea, had we known we would have brought swimming stuff as there was time to dry off. Overall an excellent day out

Worth doing, a lot crammed into one day - Very enjoyable trip around the island by coach! Knowledgeable guide who spoke excellent English and provided lots of information about the island. We made multiple stops - Akrotiri archeological site, then Perissa for lunch, followed by Emporio, the Monastery of St Elias, a wine tasting at a vineyard and then free time in Oia to enjoy the sunset. It was well organised and communication from the guide and driver was clear at all times. The only issue is that on a coach load of people, you're likely to get at least one or two individuals that are constantly late or just inconsiderate. If you can live with the potential aggravations of a large group tour, this is well worth doing.

Going to the excavation... - Going to the excavation site was very interesting, seeing the different fishing villages were interesting, the wine tasting was a little lame, Santorini was so crowded that it took away from the experience.

Worst company - Worst company, do not trust them. They change your booking last minute and don't even answer you. You will loose your money because there is no reimbursement. Rude, worst of the worst. They will ruin your vacation. No los contraten. No.confien en ellos. Son lo peor de lo peor, te csncelan servicio, te mueven horarios, te dejan esperando. Un desastre. No los contraten. Arruinaran tus vacaciones

Frustration with TRIPADVISOR! RUN! - Bad experience, I do not recommend the local operator NST Santorini, does not respect the customer and does not maintain contact, and especially TRIPADVISOR that sells the service and also did not assume anything. I requested cancellation before 24 hours of the tour (video photos of contacts), for health reasons and until today no return and refund. I have already forwarded several emails and contacted you on TRIPADVISOR without any feedback on the refund. I'll judoctify. Get away from this operator and TRIPADVISOR!!!
