DO THIS TOUR!!
We had an amazing experience on our tour of southern Santorini! It was the perfect mix of history, viewpoints, local food recommendations, and wine, and helped us make the most of our limited time in Santorini by focusing on many highlights without having to worry about cost/driving. It was also lovely to see a less touristy part of the island and spend time outside of Fira/Oia!!
Anzelo was one of our favorite tour guides to date, and we had the best day with him! 1000% recommend this experience to anyone trying to figure out how to spend their time while on the island.
