The experience itself was beautiful; George, our tour guide gave us extra stops that’s not on the itinerary so we can see more beautiful sights. The only thing is that our meeting place was about 15 minutes drive from our hotel. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful experience.
If you want to know more about Santorini than just Oia choose this tour.
The tour guide was very professional, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the entire experience. The activity itself was excellent, and I learned a lot from the experience. The guide encouraged questions, asked for feedback, and made sure everyone felt involved and comfortable during the tour. The tour was absolutely worth it! We were able to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views of Santorini and experience everything the itinerary included. The transportation was also very convenient; they picked us up at the Hotel mentioned on the itinerary, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area.
Very good tour! George was friendly and funny. Enjoyed the whole day around this beautiful island. A must do!
The staffs including driver were incredible. We enjoyed all stops and guide! Although the weather was not nice, we were able to visit all stops and spend enough time to explore Santorini! Thanks!
Very nice company & helpful & George was great as a guide. Took us to more places than we're in our agenda.
It was a nice full day tour. We had plenty of time to enjoy a delicious seafood lunch and take a relaxing stroll along the black sand beach. The tour ended with ample time to roam Oia and take in the beautiful sunset.
If you need an overall tour of the island, this is the tour for you! We visited all the good sites. Each site was given an amount of time and we stuck to that time no matter the weather. Which was a little bit of a bummer for us since it was rainy and windy. But good to know the are faithful to their time. The driver does give you information and then drops you off at the location but does not go with you. It was a good day. Bud was very nice and comfortable and our driver was a skilled and safe.
Awesome 👌 would definitely do again! Amazing views and interesting landscape and little villages to explore.
It was really nice as the tour included all major tourist attractions in Santorini in a day without being felt rushed. The driver and tour guide Nick had a great sense of humor. He was very knowledgeable about the tour attractions and answered all the questions we had for him. I would recommend to go 2ith this tour company.
