Tour Around Santorini! - We had an amazing experience with Arthur from The Breeze Tour. From the moment the tour started, he made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. His knowledge, storytelling, and enthusiasm made the entire trip incredibly engaging.
Arthur showed us beautiful spots and shared fascinating insights about the local culture and history that we wouldn’t have discovered by ourselves. The pace of the tour was perfect, and you can tell he truly cares about giving people a memorable experience.
If you’re visiting the area and want a tour that is both fun and meaningful, The Breeze Tour with Arthur is a must. Highly recommended!

Highly Recommend! - This is absolutely THE BEST TOUR my family has ever taken (and we book private tours all of the time). Arturo (American name, Arthur) was an incredible guide. He knew how to navigate the crowds in the various towns and took us to all of the best photo spots (and was more than happy to take an enormous amount of photos of us). He even helped my husband on the steep steps. Arthur’s kindness, big heart and love of Santorini did not go unnoticed. We ended the day with a fabulous lunch and swim in the ocean. I cannot recommended this tour enough.

Santorini private tour - Tour guide Arthur is amazing. He took us to places most crowded tours wouldn’t have access to. He explained the history behind the blue domes and explained Santorini‘s past. We had the most wonderful time with him. The Mercedes van was very comfortable. Would highly recommend this tour. Definitely deserves a five star rating.

See Santorini your way - On this tour you get to see the entire island of Santorini. The guide will customize the day to fit your wants and limitations.
That sounds good but we did not realize how it applied to us, since we knew very little about the island. Our tour guide, Arthur (who was very very good), chatted with us, asked a few questions and was able to quickly devise a plan that fit us. Results? A great experience.

We felt really well taken care of. Would recommend. - We were initially planning to rent a car and explore the island on our own, but given my parents are getting older and we had limited time at our disposal, we went for a private tour. Suffice to say, this was the highlight of our trip!
Arthur was very friendly and had amazing stories to share. He picked us up from our hotel early in the morning, as we requested, and took us to the best spots around the island. We were able to avoid the crowds and capture some stunning photos. We really got to see most of Santorini in half a day, which we didn't think was possible.
Would highly recommend to do this on your first day on the island, or if you're only visiting for a day.

Best day in Santorini - This trip was Amazing. Arthur was a great tour guide. We were traveling as a family with a 1 year old. Arthur was kind and fun. So knowledge. We spent time at all of the major sites, including beach time at Black Beach, and even saw some hidden gems. Arthur did an amazing job of navigating the crowds to help us get beautiful pictures of this amazing island. I would highly recommend this private tour, and ask for Arthur. It is well worth the money. Thanks Arthur for an amazing day. We wouldn’t change a thing… except maybe ask for cooler temperatures. It was a hot day. 🙂

Only way to see Santorini - The only way to truly experience Santorini, away from the crowds. Petros was our driver, and drove us to the 3 best beaches accessible by vehicle. Perfect for us. Very personable man, and easy to talk to. At the last stop took us to a beach club restaurant, where honestly the food was amazing! Soooo glad we booked this private tour.
