Spectacular Panoramic Views! - Did the 4 hour private tour with Spyros who did a really nice job pointing out the sights and history of Santorini while safely and smoothly driving us through the less than spacious roads of the island. Only negative was that the 4 hours went by way too quickly!!

Santorini customized tour - Yannis is an excellent guide with great personality and knowledge of the history of the island. He customized a private tour for us which covered all of our points of interest: light house, ancient village, monastery at the highest point in Santorini, Megalochorion, Akrotiriou-Oias, black beach, and others.
We highly recommend Yannis.
The car was very clean, modern and luxurious. We got to see the whole island and tried authentic local cuisine.
It was a great experience.

Great way to explore! - What a great way to explore Santorini! Yiannis was a wonderful guide with so much knowledge about the island and the places we visited. He made sure I got the best views for my pictures, answered all my questions and was an impeccable driver. There's no way I would have been able to see so much on my short visit to Santorini on my own. I highly recommend this tour, and ask for Yiannis!
