First time to Santorini
Had an amazing morning exploring the island of Santorini with our Guide Elias.

Amazing Santorini Private Tour
Honestly might be the best Viator we’ve ever booked! We had Elias Grigoris as our driver and guide for the day. He picked us up promptly and had cold water ready in the van. Some good info and stories in-between stops. However the overall best part was his keen attention to minimizing crowds and leading to areas that didn’t miss any of Santorini’s beauty but felt calm and not over touristy (although some can’t be avoided). Great spot for a local dinner which included traditional Greek dancing and breaking plates! Such an awesome experience!

Terrific Island Overview
Our tour guide, Elias Grigoris, was wonderful. He drove a new, clean, air-conditioned van and took us from Fira to Akrotiri to Oia and finally Megalochori, narrating as much or as little as we wanted and answering questions. Very informative, with typical as well as quirky island history, from the formation of the island of Santorini through later occupation and Venetian influence and the location of churches. Also gave us a terrific lunch recommendation for a seaside seafood restaurant at Black Beach. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Tour of Santorini
We had a fantastic tour of Santorini with Elias Grigoris. He took us all around the island and shared a lot of stories and knowledge of the island. We went multiple towns, an archeological site, beaches, a local winery, and a fantastic lunch complete with Greek dancing and plate breaking. It was a wonderful day for our family and I would highly recommend a tour with Elias.

Fantastic
We arranged a 4 hour personalised tour for our family of 3. Fani, our guide, was amazing. Very funny, friendly and knowledgable. She took us to all the best spots and even took photographs of us. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you x

Great day out!
Very informative day. Our driver, Elias, was so helpful and gave us continuous information while we were driving and while we were walking. He asked us what we were interested in and planned our day accordingly.

Perfect day trip in Santorini!
Our driver Chris, picked us up promptly at the time and place he said he would. We scheduled a 3 hour private tour. The luxury car was very nice. He shared so much information about the island as we were driving. I highly recommend Chris as a tour guide!
