Zeus - God of Tours - My husband and I traveled to Santorini for a late honeymoon and were anxious about navigating the island. Lucky for us, Días (Zeus) was an absolutely AMAZING tour guide who was knowledgeable, kind, and very patient with our multiple touristic questions. To be quite honest, Zeus was the highlight of our trip to Santorini!! He not only took stunning pictures, but was generous enough to go into great detail about the island and all of its many unique characteristics. He also has really good food recommendations! Zeus’s kindness and charisma added to the beauty of our trip. We are sincerely grateful for the time we had exploring the island’s towns together and will think back on our time with Zeus fondly! BEST TOUR EVER!

They were extremely professional, friendly, and very courteous throughout the entire trip. The guide explained everything clearly and made the tour fun and informative, while the driver made the ride smooth and comfortable. Their teamwork and hospitality really made the whole experience memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city—truly exceptional service!

Quick yet in depth view of Santorini - My GF and I enjoyed our tour of Santorini and our guide Yianni was an added pleasure. He's very knowledgable of the area which he shared with our group. We appreciated his humor, enthusiasm and he was also kind enough to take photos of everyone at all of the stops. I highly recommend this tour and even moreso if you luck out with Yianni as your guide.

Unbelievable - Alex was very knowledgeable and funny but he lied to all of us several times telling us that we had plenty of time to get on the cable car down to the boat tenders. He repeatedly said we would be able to almost walk right up and get on when in fact we all had to stand in line for almost 2 hrs. He said we could eat dinner and watch the sun go down when in fact we got in line immediately and when we FINALLY got to the boat tenders we had 5 minutes before it left and it was the last one of the night. Several of us were VERY UNHAPPY! Will never trust or use Viator again!
