Beware of the tourist trap

George was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable about the island and the history. Santorini was very hilly (it was hot too on the day we went). This was a BIG challenge for my mom, who is 70. If you aren’t in shape, this is going to be hard. Also, we learned on our excursion, the tour guides take you to a black sand beach at the end of a long, hot tour with restaurants. By this point you are hungry and thirsty. The restaurant owners offer you a “meat plate appetizer to share” and the food is great and it can feed 20 people BUT they will charge you 500 euro. Request a menu instead and order what you want to eat and can afford. It’s a big scam by the locals on unsuspecting tourists. Don’t fall into that trap like we did.

Early bird gets the worm

Arthur was exceptional. He was knowledgeable and very friendly and very flexible. He worked very well with our family and we enjoyed this company throughout the day. I would highly recommend him and this tour to anyone visiting center. Because we had an early start time we avoided all the crowds, and Arthur knew exactly where to go and knew all the tricks to avoid the long lines for the best pictures.

Wonderful tour in Santorini with an amazing guide, Petros! Strongly recommend for seeing all the major sights in comfort

This was the highlight of our Santorini trip largely due to the amazing guide, Petros! He was fabulous and took the time to show us all the major sights in Santorini in a comfortable luxurious van. Petros was patient, informative, kind and funny. He offered to take photos of us and even took some on his own phone when ours weren’t working well and then texted to us the photos later. He extended our tour as we were the only ones that day and offered us to have lunch at the beach while he waited for us at another table. Petros made the day so enjoyable. We’ve had many tours throughout the past few years but this one far exceeded any others. Highly recommend this personal tour with Petros! You will be so happy that you did! Thank you Petros for an amazing day in Santorini we will remember fondly forever. Wishing you all the very best.

Our Sartorini tour was super fun. We were very thankful for our tour guide, Arthur, for making sure we made the most of our time in Santorini. Because of his knowledge and experience, we were able to visit places at the best times. Arthur was also very flexible and allowed us to manage time based on our preferences. Will definitely recommend this tour to family and friends.

Beautiful places

It was one of our best vacations. The tour guide took us to places that we certainly wouldn't have found on our own. We had so much fun.

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!
