Santorini experience

Thorough tour of Santorini. Our guide, Alex was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our bus driver Nicholas was a very good driver. Allow time to tender from cruise ship to Old Harbor Port to ensure you make it to your tour on time.

Best way to see Santorini

Best way to see Santorini. Skipped the sky tram, had an air conditioned ride, small group with a local guide. Saw all the local spots, learned tons of history, and really enjoyed our day.

What a great day we had...

What a great day we had exploring Santorini with our guide Alex. He was great in taking us to picturesque locations and showing us the best photo spots. We also stopped at a great place for lunch! This was just a wonderful day of exploring and shopping and eating! I really feel like we saw that whole island. Alex made it an incredibly pleasant experience.

Beautiful Santorini. Great tour with Viktor!

Tour date: April 28, 2026. After being brought to land by the cruise's tender boat (Enchanted Princess), we (four friends) were greeted by Viktor, and along with other tourists, were assisted onto the tour boat that lead to the landing where we boarded the bus for our steep, but enjoyable scenic ride to the top of Santorini. Santorini is somewhat barren in vegetation with the possible exception of grapes, but the views of everything from land to sea were spectacular. Viktor did not disappoint in his description of history and the process of the grape industry. He described the way of life on this beautiful island and it was obvious that his knowledge, (having been a resident from birth) was vast, along with his love for his home. He was indeed a pleasant, accommodating and knowledgeable young man! I would definitely recommend him! We went to beautiful villages and were given the opportunity to take time to visit the small stores that lined the narrow streets in Oia (pronounced Eeya). Nearing the end, we were brought to the restaurant (I think it is called 41 Santorini) on Perivolos Beach, and while we ate there, other tour participants chose to eat elsewhere ( and were just as impressed). I would be remiss if I didn't give a shout out to the driver and the staff who were so diligent in assisting us on and off the boats! A beautiful day on a beautiful island with a great guide!
