Duke – The Perfect Guide to Beautiful Santorini 💙🤍✨
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Duke for our private 6-hour tour of beautiful Santorini! 💙🤍🌸 He took us all over the island, knew how to avoid the crowds (and get ahead of the crowds in most popular photo spot) and shared so many interesting facts along the way. Took us to places we would never have known about. What really stood out was how attentive he was to our safety and mindful of our mobility issues. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful, comfortable day. If you’re visiting Santorini, we highly recommend Duke! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An Amazing day in Santorini
What an Amazing day in Santorini!! We met with our driver, Duke in a convenient spot. He was a wonderful host to a beautiful island. He shared with us the all the popular spots for special photos, in a very timely manner. He also shared the many quiet and quaint spots that were very representative of life on Santorini. Duke also shared the long history and culture of Santorini that was very interesting. Duke suggested a wonderful restaurant on the black sand beach. The food and views were wonderful. The day could not of been more perfect!!!! We loved every minute we spent on Santorini. Thank you Duke for making our day amazing!

Hope (our guide) was amazing for 4 hours. Professional, knowledgeable, friendly and respectful. We loved the tour and would recommend her/them again. Communication from them before the tour started was timely and relevant. I highly recommend Brothers Travel and Viator in Santorini. 👍

The guide was very...
The guide was very friendly and took us places. But he was more a truck driver (his profession while not in season) than a tour guide. He gave us basic facts about Santorini but not the story about the island. The worst was that he didn't have microphone and it was almost impossible to hear him sitting in the back of the car. The operator told us that she ordered microphones but they didn't arrive yet which is definitely not our problem.

Duke is amazing! Book the tour!
If I could give this 10 stars I would! Duke is AMAZING! We booked an 8 hour private tour for 4 people. We didn’t have a specific agenda set out, except for dinner reservations in Oia. He planned our whole day around it. He took us over the whole island. He took us to both hot spots and off the beaten path places that locals go to. He is so knowledgeable about local life, the island, the history. He also waited for us while we had dinner!, then returned us to the cable cars. Honestly, I could just go on and on about this tour, it was our best day of a 2 week trip. DO IT!

Great way to see the Island!
This was a great way to see most of the island and the major photo-op locations.
We started the tour with Elpida and then Duke took over after the 2nd stop. Both were engaging and very knowledgeable of the island and Greece’s history.
They were also focused on making sure we were happy with the itinerary, answering questions, and maintaining a good dialogue throughout the tour.
They did a great job of planning the stops and routes to avoid peak crowds.

Oia to Black Sand Beach — A+
Excellent tour. Our guide Duke was able to accommodate our early arrival and provided an outstanding experience. We visited multiple villages and sites from Oia on one end of the island to the black sand beach at the other with countless stops at scenic areas throughout. He tailored our tour to our interests and even took us to an excellent restaurant for lunch. Three couples on the tour and we had a wonderful day. We highly recommend the tour.

awesome tour with history lesson... fascinating
For 6 hours, we went to alot of different places. One of our favorites is the tradional villages and learning the culture and history of santorini. Duke was very knowledgeable and took time to explain the history of santorini. He was also very accomodating on making sure we went to a restroom that was clean. The bakery we went to had the perfect dessert to our lunch that was in black beach! Thank you! We had a blast!
