Book this Tour!! Best ever!

I cannot say enough positive things about Stratos!! First off, his communication pre-tour was the BEST of anyone I found. I had many questions which he answered with utmost patience. Stratos knows so much about Santorini, customized our tour to our needs and offered terrific suggestions for the tour to be amazing. We had an unavoidable change in our arrival plan, but he figured out a solution and saved the day! We stopped at all of the iconic vistas plus more. Thank you Stratos! I hope to return one day and will be in touch!

Santorini with a 5th generation local guide!

We had a fantastic private tour of Santorini, Makis was our guide, a 5th generation local with a passion for sharing everything about Santorini. He knew all of the best places to go, see and take the best photos away from the huge amounts of tourists. I highly recommend Makis, he will make sure you have a fantastic time!

Tour of Santorini with the future Mayor of Santorini

My wife and I had an amazing tour with the future Mayor of Santorini! Stravos tailored our tour to our desires, allowing us to see everything we wanted, and got us around the entire island pointing out sights and giving informative facts along with way. He stopped at three beaches each with different colors of sand, parking very close and allowing us time to take pictures and take in the beautiful views. He even gave us non tourist restaurants to choose from before dropping us off when the tour ended. 10/10 guide and tour!

Great experience with Stratos.

Great experience with Stratos. Very friendly, knowledgeable and has a great attitude. Very flexible itinerary to meet whatever a visitor is interested in. Helped with photos, directions, food recommendations were solid. Was great at allowing us to have more time when needed and less when we wanted to move on.

Lovely Day Trip in Santorini with Efstratios

We loved our day tour with Efstratios in beautiful Santorini! He took my husband and I to all of the villages that we wanted to see and even fit in a stop to Perissa Beach so we could see the pretty black sand. Thank you, Efstratios for a lovely day! 💙

Stratos is the future mayor of Santorini

Stratos is the future mayor of Santorini and he may as well be the current one. I highly recommend this company for your Santorini tour. It was the perfect blend between sitting back while a local expert handles all the decisions, and also being able to request anything else you want to add to the route. Everything felt fun, safe, thoughtful, and organized.
