We met as strangers, but felt like family when we departed. - What an amazing experience!!! We had Panos as our tour guide and he did not disappoint. Being an island native, he was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. He was very funny and extremely entertaining. He took us to the best picture spots of scenic views and was a phenomenal photographer. We all wanted to take him home with us after the tour. In fact we all offered that he could stay with us when he visits the U.S. Select this tour company and request Panos! He was the best tour guide we had on our 2 week Greek island cruise.

5 stars!! Astri was a brilliant tour guide - We arrived in Santorini on Thursday and met Astri 5 minutes after the cable cars. The private tour was reasonably priced and his Mercedes van provided great comfort and some well needed complimentary water. Astri took us on a 3 hour trip around Santorini, allowing us to tour the beautiful village of Oia by ourselves for an hour. He showed us all the historic sites & even some beautiful spots that you won’t find on your standard tours, like a beautiful beach. We got some brilliant pictures along the way as Astri knew exactly where to stop and kindly acted as our photographer too! Astri’s knowledge of the island, their history and produce was fascinating and we loved spending our limited time in Santorini with him! Thank you so much for our private tour, if we return, you will be our first call!! We would recommend to any tourists wanting to see the real Santorini - all the main sights and some hidden gems along the way! Katie & John, Co Donegal, Ireland

Amazing Experience - Panos was a fantastic tour guide. Took us around the city while talking about its history. Gave us a lot of time to self explore, suggested good food and drink options and kept us entertained. We even offered him a drink and lunch but he politely refused. We had a great time with him and enjoyed the beautiful city tour.

Best Santorini half day tour ever! - We were contacted by our driver a few hours before pick up. We were coming on a cruise ship and they picked us up right where the boat dropped us off. From the beginning we had a wonderful experience with Sara our guide and Our driver Panos. There were both incredibly sweet and friendly every stop was perfect and we were able to take amazing pictures without the crowds. We made a stop at Oia Beach and we swam for a while. Then we went shopping. We truly enjoyed our time there and we made new friends for life . We highly recommend them to our friends and family and we would definitely go back again.

A great day on Santorini! - Panos was a great tour guide. He kept us interested with facts about the island and more importantly what it is like to live not only on Santorini but in Greece. He was on time, had plenty of cold water for us, drove safely and his van was clean. He was also able to adjust our drop off location on short notice. Thank you!

Picture Perfect - We met our at the cable car station then made our way to Oia. We had plenty of time to take the iconic pictures with the blue domes before the crowds arrived. Our guide- Astri was so pleasant and accommodating. He have us some departing gifts and dropped us closer so my mom had a shorter walk to the sraion
