The wines and views were amazing. The wine museum was really interesting and really told a lot about wine and Santorini.
The driver was great and pointed out sites along the way. The wineries were ok... they could offer souvenirs or opportunities for bigger selection tastings.
Such an amazing wine experience in Santorini. We had a private tour so we had the car to ourselves. Each winery had its own special charm that we enjoyed and would certainly recommend this tour!
This was the best wine tasting experience my partner and I have ever had. I can't recommend it highly enough. It had a lovely mix of wineries with different styles and experiences. The Museum Koutsogiannopoulos is a fun, homely historical place, giving a nice self-guided wine exhibit tour that outlines the history of wine-making on the island. It also had some genuinely interesting facts about the unique vineyards on Santorini, followed by a nice tasting. The Estate Argyros couldn't be more different. It was a beautiful, slick, professional winery with a lustrous white marble tasting room and hi tech wine production tour. The wines here are world-class and could compete with the best international vintages. We bought three, including the amazing 20-year Vinsantos - the best Vinsantos you'll get on the island. The last stop is one of our old favourites, Santo winery. Its more commercial with lots of tourists and wine varieties. However, that does not detract from the quality of the experience. When you've already had 6-8 wines and are feeling merry, you’ll want to finish in Santo because it has spectacular views of the Aegean, lovely complimentary light bites, and a nice bar vibe to finish off your amazing day of wine-tasting. Also, it has the best sparkling wine you can buy on the island that is as good as high quality champagne. Definitely grab a bottle of that when here. Basically, this has everything you’d want in a wine-tasting experience in the right sequence and balance. Also, we were the only people on the tour, so it felt like a personalised wine trip, which made it even more special. The guide was friendly, good fun, flexible, and happy to spend shorter or longer in each estate depending on our preferences. He also knew all the best photo spots and took some snaps of us at each winery. He also leaves you alone to enjoy the wine-tasting with the experts, so it is an unintrusive, chilled experience overall. A brilliant excursion!!
This was one of the highlights of our Santorini trip with great food, wine, and views. We ended up being the only people on the tour. Our driver was so nice and helpful with great tips about Greece, and even gave us a special treat to go.
The vineyards were all unique. The first one had a cave underground where you learned the history of wine making in Santorini. The next had a tour of vineyards. The final had incredible views. Arturo, not sure the name, was excellent and he waited until after sunset to bring us back. He even surprised us with a greek gift. Great evening!
Koutsogiannopoulos Wine Museum was a fascinating start to our wine tour to learn the history and challenges of wine making on Santorini. Argyros Winery had delicious wines and the sommelier was excellent. Ending our tour at Santo Winery was perfect as the view was spectacular. Our driver Anthony was excellent, he made sure we enjoyed our tour!! His gift of Creton pastries was a delight and delicious.
The wine museum , very informative and enjoyed doing the self guided tour. Estate Argyros vineyards (baskets and new vertical cut) Santos winery caldera view. Favorite wine was at Estate Argyros -white dry wine is delicious. Assyrtiro Santorini . Our driver (lived in Chicago) was very nice and was very attentive….. Enjoyed all 3 tastings —-different styles made for a good tour..
Everything. The driver was awesome (thank you Adonis!), each winery (3) was special in a different way. Museum/winery for the history, another for both vineyard education, the best individual sommelier and the very best wine, and the last for amazing views of the caldera! My husband normally does not drink wine but totally enjoyed himself. Totally recommend.
So glad we did this experience. Service , cleanliness and the wine tasting was top marks . All from a very beautiful location .
