Our guide and driver was wonderful. We were able to see so much of the island. The best part was that we were able to adjust the itinerary to make the most of our time.

Red beach! One untold world wonder in Akrotiri! A lot of travelers visit the place to admire it and swim under the red rocky cliffs formations created from the volcano erruption at 1613 BC
Black beach in Perissa is a sightseing that anybody has to explore and see… Swimming and Photoshooting activities are suggested.
Pyrgos is the most traditional village and located at the highest place of the island of Santorini and oferring an amazing, breathtaking whole rounded view of the island.Walking via the narrow pathways in the village is a real and exquisite experience!
Taste the world wide popular local flavors of Visanto, Nychteri and Assyrtiko by admiring the breathtaking view of caldera and volcano in Santorini; experience that overflow your senses!
The traditional and cosmopolitan village of Oia should be our last tour stop after a 20 minutes stop in Firostefani and Blue Dome for photoshooting. Oia is maybe one of the most attractive sightseeing of the island of Santorini after the Volcano... Thousands of travelers reach the place to admire the untold sunset and walking between marvelous and small with cycladitic architecture blue and white houses and branded shopping boutiques.

Panos was rude to me and my family. He was pompous and kept speaking very badly about the locals the entire 5 hours saying they were idiots and stupid etc. At the end he rudely asked for a tip. I am advising all our friends to not use this service.
Pannos is an excellent tour guide! He knows everyone and all the best secret picture spots. He casually strolls around Santorini, avoiding the crowds and finding all the best spots. He is friendly and knowledgeable, his love for his country shining through. The tour is tailor made for what you want to see. It was a GREAT DAY!!!!
Great opportunity to see as much as possible when you don’t have a ton of time on the island. Highly recommend!
I can’t say enough good things about this tour and our driver Panagiotis. We had the misfortune of delayed flights/missed connections and arrived late in to santorini. But the tour was more than accommodating with us and we’re able to delay the start time. Panagiotis tailored the tour to what we wanted to see given the little time we had, was super knowledgeable about the island and made recommendations on a delicious dinner off the beaten path that would not cost the insane prices typical found in the restaurants in Oía village. The sprinter van he picked us up in was a gorgeous, and spacious. They were able to provide us with a car seat for our 19 month old and unlike those large bus tours. He was willing to stop anywhere you wanted whether it was to use the bathroom or get a drink. Would definitely do again!
Fantastic trip with a great guide very good knowledge and knows exactly where to stand to get the best pictures. The van is very comfortable and easily enough space. We were 5 but you can comfortably get a few more in. Resturant recommends were excellent.
We highly recommend this private tour of Santorini! Our tour guide, Pano did an amazing job showing us all the gorgeous sights of Santorini and capturing beautiful photos of us in the breathtaking settings! It was an unforgettable day full of memories we will always cherish!
Guide was amazing and wanted the best time for us. We arrived late cause of the boat tender and the guide still wanted to give us our whole tour. Great time Thank you Banos
We had a wonderful experience sightseeing the island and our driver was wonderful! He was very accommodating and very patient with our requests. We enjoyed learning about Santorini and our driver even taught us a trick or two on how to take great pictures. It was a day well spent!
Pano, our guide was very patient and accommodating. We were late because we were coming off a cruise ship and there was a huge line to take the cable car to the top of the cliff where our trip started. We saw the city and beautiful views. There was 16 of us so you can imagine all the different opinions but everyone was happy.
Tour Guide was a great driver and got us into town quickly and knew how to get around the crowds. Finished tour at a great restaurant. Would have preferred to skip the wine tasting and seen more beaches. I would recommend this tour.
The island itself and the views were fantastic. Oia was beautiful and the road to visit to the high point of the island was unforgettable. It takes a courageous person to drive the narrow road. Our luncheon restaurant (Kantouni) was perfect. My only regret is that our driver/guide was not too conversant. He said he had been a resident and that he was a guide for a number of years. He did not describe much of the history, culture and geography. We had to engage him to obtain information.
This turned out to be a marvelous experience. Our guide Yannis really listen to our needs. He tailored everything around what we wanted to do. We never felt rushed and were extremely pleased that he was able to avoid the crowds. If we ever come back, we would gladly use this service again and would avoid athe package tour offered by the cruise line.
We were late getting off cruise ship but he was waiting at top of cable car. Extended visit to get full planned tour and adjusted to our preference. Very knowledgeable about best local spots for pictures and comfortable van.
Fantastic tour! Great way to see the highlights of the island in a short period. Panos was a great guide - he not only was knowledgeable and fully fluent in English but he also knew the best spots for amazing photos and acted as a talented photographer for us. He nimbly and calmly navigated the 8 person Mercedes van through crowded streets. The Viator back office were also helpful in communications and ensuring we easily met Panos when we were delayed an hour in a crowded line up for the funicular. We are seasoned travellers with high standards and we were very impressed by the whole experience. Highly recommend!
This private tour was wonderful. R driver/guide Banos was exceptional. He was informative, gracious and patient, especially with one of us needing a little more time when walking. The places we saw were amazing. We did run out of time to c it all due to r bring slower. But discuss ur must see’s and he will make sure u c them. I highly Recommend this tour!
Takis was amazing as both tour guide and driver. He asked our interests and brought us to each place in an order that maximized our time, matched the weather, and accommodated the kids- while taking pictures along the way. We never felt rushed. He suggested one winery over the other due to windiness and views and we had a great tasting. We called them back for transport to the airport as well, and Nikos was very accommodating to hold our luggage while we checked out another town before leaving the island.
Takis, our tour guide was exceptional! The black beach and red beach were amazing. The waves crashing on the rocks at the black beach was captivating ! There were a total of 11 of us in 2 groups and Takis was gracious enough to stop at this amazing bakery for us to get some breakfast.
We had Luka, as our tour guide. He was very good. We did get off to a rocky start as we told the tour operator that we would be landing at the main port, whereas, we tendered off Fira. We, unfortunately, got the wrong info ftom our cruise ship even though we asked multiple times. It still worked out well, as it turned out we were the only family that booked this your. So we ended up having our own personal tour guide and driver. So, we were able yo dictate what we did and how long we stayed in each place. It was wonderful as we were able to hit all the highlights without feeling rushed. Totally recommend this tour.
From the start to the finish of our Santorini tour our guide was very welcoming and informative throughout. Nothing was rushed and he showed us everything there was to see on Santorini. I would highly recommend this tour company
Our tour with our guide (Cannot recall his name but he was originally fro Georgia) was excellent. The tour guide went above and beyond to try and show us as much as possible on the island. We feel like we got a very good feel of Santorini, and we saw every sight that was worth seeing. We had an hour on the black sand beach, which was enough to get a feel for the beach. In terms of communications, they were very responsive on e mails, sometimes immediate reply during business hours in Greece. I would highly recommend their services, and will definitely use them again on my next visit in Santorini.
Flexibility on what to see was very appreciated. Loved the views, the winding small roads the blue domes.
We had been island hopping around Greece and booked tours everywhere we went. By far, this tour was our most memorable. We booked our 5-hour tour online at the last minute in late October--right at the end of the tourist season. The company graciously honored our booking even though we were the only people to book a tour that day. Our guide, Galess, was informative, warm, friendly and had a great sense of humor. He even recommended restaurants and places to stay for our next trip to Santorini (hopefully) next year.
The driver was excellent and customized the tour to fit our family's needs. We would highly recommend it.
The tour was great and I can only recommend it 100%. Our wishes were completely taken into account, the service was great and we really saw the island. Our children (7 & 12) also enjoyed the trip, so they also gave it 5/5 points.
Notre chauffeur nous a bien guidé pour la visite en nous indiquant dans quel sens il fallait faire la faire.
