Best day ever

Our tour with Dimitri was absolutely incredible. He was funny, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about the area and local culture. He truly made the experience unforgettable. Exploring Oia and the surrounding areas without someone who understands the history, culture, and hidden gems just wouldn’t be the same. Dimitri knew all the best photo locations, helped us avoid long lines and crowds, and even took amazing photos and panoramas for us throughout the tour. He got us into some of the most popular spots effortlessly and made everything feel easy and enjoyable. We highly recommend this company — Dimitri turned our trip into a memory we’ll never forget.

Private tours are the best way to see Santorini

Domertrius our guid was absolutely fantastic, he related the kids just as well as he did to the adults. he was informative and took us to places that other tourists could not get access too including a fantastic coffee hut! He knew about the history and all the best photo spots, this made our day at Santorini an absolute ripper!

Amazing and unforgettable

I traveled solo and this private tour was the best thing I did. Dimitris is an excellent tour guide and super nice guy. I was picked up at the hotel in a comfortable airconditioned van. On the way he stopped at a spot were I wanted a pic. He even stopped at little shop he knows and got me great cup of coffee. There were long lines but we just zoomed straight ahead and he knew exactly where the best spots for pictures were. This is really the best and probably the only way to get those amazing pics of the cliffside, caldera and especially of the blue domes, without the crowds around you. It really was an amazing and unforgettable experience.

Amazing tour of Santorini!

What a fantastic experience! Our private tour guide, Dimitrios Chrysidis, was absolutely amazing. He took us to all the popular spots, took great photos and shared his knowledge about the country. He was extremely nice and fun and knew all the tricks in seeing the city! I highly recommend this tour and if you can, ask for him!!

Superb Santorini

We had an amazing 3 hour tour with Dimitris. He took us to Oia and the black sand beach. Hr was very informative about Santorini and even kept my children entertained. We were able to design our perfect day in Santorini. I highly recommend Dimitris and this tour.

An absolute must!! The highlight of our trip

This was the highlight of our cruise! Our driver and tour guide Dimitri went above and beyond. We had some issues getting to him due to the cable car but he was very cooperative. He took us to many spots and knew the shortcuts to avoid standing in line with tourists. He even took us to a lovely jewellery shop where I purchased a stunning pair of earrings and necklace. We ended by taking him to lunch (we insisted) as a thank you for his hospitality. I recommended to all my friends and. Thank you Dimitri for making our time in Santorini extra special.

Santorini was a beautiful place to see!! Wonderful pics! I think we were spoiled by previous guides because we felt we didn't get the amount of information we expected from the guide. He was very pleasant and accommodating but just didn't have the charisma we wanted on a private tour.
