Engels was very friendly and knowledgeable he stopped to get us beverages along the way explained the tour and also very accommodating. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great tour person
It was an excellent day on the island. Gina was quite knowledgeable and personable - an excellent guide! She was very accommodating for our large group and made sure we had plenty of time at Berissa beach - a huge request for our younger family members. I even took my first swim in the Mediterranean - it was so nice. Our driver, George, was also great. He was friendly and navigated for our group very well.
I'm George!! The 8 of us had a full fun day in Santorini with our driver and tour guide George. The views were spectacular and George knew how to avoid the crowds. We had a great lunch experience off the beaten path that was delicious and affordable. Great day, thank you George!
Our guide was amazing! So knowledgeable and flexible and guided us but also planned around our wants and needs for our families and 3 teenagers. He was flexible and brought us to an amazing lunch. We saw things we wouldn’t have seen without a private tour. Highly recommend to make the most of your short time on the island. We saw things regular tourists don’t.
Really nice experiencia!! Angelo is a really good guide!

Great experience , incredible views. The food is fantastic, the hospitality is 2nd to none. We travel many places and this place will not disappoint. Lots of shopping, not too pricey. The wine is also something to try. Refreshing whites and pairs well with the food. Our driver was very informative,so we also got a history lesson during the day as well.
Thank you so much for your 5star feedback ! We are so glad to know you enjoyed your tour! We hope to see you again in the future!
Wonderful experience with our tour guide Gina and driver Nikos! They both made this experience very memorable. We had a family party of nine and a private tour was the way to go!
