A great option for guests interested in traditional village character, elevated viewpoints, and a quieter side of the island away from the busiest areas.

One of Santorini’s most charming traditional villages, ideal for guests who enjoy local atmosphere, architecture, and a more authentic pace.

We booked a 7 hour private customizable tour for wine tasting across Santorini and could have have been happier. From the beginning, Aphrodite was responsive, enthusiastic, and extremely helpful in offering guidance on how to plan our day. She researched various wineries and gave us information about each as well as a recommended itinerary for the day. We never felt pressured into making any decisions until we were ready, and once we came up with our final plan, she made all the necessary reservations for us. Our driver/guide, George, was outstanding too. He offered insight into the area and provided us with plenty of history and photo opportunities along the way. Overall, both Aphrodite and George made the day easy and memorable for us all. Highly recommend!
I cannot say enough about Aphrodite and Santoriginal Tours. From the outset, she was a wealth of help and knowledge. She answered all my questions in a timely manner and helped us plan this bucket list trip I desired. I had no worries we would be taken care of upon arrival. She met us with a smile, and we were off. She expertly navigated the island and took us where we wanted to go, and we also trusted her recommendations. We enjoyed getting to know her and the island. We left with wonderful memories and felt like we had made a friend as well. Thank you Aphrodite!
Our private tour with Aphrodite was absolutely amazing, and a highlight of our trip to Greece. We would highly recommend her. She was extremely knowledgeable, warm, friendly, and just a wonderful person to be around. She structured the day perfectly, so we saw everything we wanted to see, without ever feeling rushed. She made the day feel magical. She also took the best pictures, especially in Oia, where she maneuvered our way through the crowds to take great pictures. We felt like her friend by the end of the day. We can't say enough about Aphrodite, she was beyond spectacular and felt lucky to have spent the day with her.
We knew we had limited time in Santorini on our cruise stop so we booked a private tour on my twin and I's 65th birthday. Our guide and driver was Aphrodite and she was beyond amazing. Cruise ship docking can be complicated in Santorini and Aphrodite reached out several days prior to confirm all the details. She met us right where the tenders dropped us off at the port and from the moment we met her we knew we were in for an incredible day. She had figured out the best route to avoid the crowds and was so knowledgeable about the area. She had a fun personality and we felt like a friend was showing us around. We were stressed about the cable car after reading so much about the long lines. Aphrodite knew all the cruise ship schedules in port that day and dropped us off at the perfect time and we walked right onto the cable car no lines! Definitely would recommend this tour.
From initial contact with Aphrodite, to our tour with Nikolas, the entire experience went seamlessly well! We didn’t know what to expect. Aphrodite was warm and suggested we do a minimum of four hours which turned out to be the perfect option. Nikolas greeted us as a stranger and we left feeling like we made a good friend. His vibrant personality and deep knowledge of Santorini was truly evident from the start. Nikolas treated us like family and the entire experience was meaningful and a total pleasure! Do not hesitate, I don’t believe you will find anyone finer to take you around Santorini and make you feel so appreciated!
We had an incredible tour with Aphrodite! She customized the tour to our specific needs and was extremely knowledgeable of the history of Santorini and all the hidden spots. It was such a joy to spend the day with her!
Authentic, informative, very personal. If coming off a cruise ship allow minimum one hour to get to shore and get up the tram. We did the donkeys , which is how people got around in santoriani for years.
Thomas guided our tour - 15 people from one family, three generations. We had a great time and Thomas made it a fun, memorable experience. He was friendly, capable, flexible and knowledgeable. The van was cool and comfortable. They represented that it was custom and it really was - whatever we enjoyed, we did more of. Would recommend without reservation.
We had Aphrodite she was passionate informative and so much fun! We had our teenager with us and she kept her engaged! She was very informative and took us all around the island! I would definitely recommend! We customized our tour completely it was perfect! Thank you!
I wish I could give them 1000/5. I rarely leave reviews but all I can say is WOW. Kostas was amazing. He was funny, flexible, KNOWLEDGEABLE, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. If you were like me and on the edge whether to book or not….. book it.
Thomas was an excellent guide. He was super knowledgeable, friendly, fun and best of all, kept all the kids engaged! Excellent driving skills and instagram worthy picture taking. I’d highly recommend him. Thanks Thomas!
We had a great tour of Santorini with Ares, from Santoriginal Tours. He took us all over the island and his love for Santorini really showed through in his commentary of the history of the island and what life is like there currently. We went to many spots that most cruisers visiting for just one day would never be able to see otherwise, like Red Sand Beach and Megalochori. We highly recommend Santoriginal Tours if you're ever in Santorini!
My wife and I booked a customized two-day tour with Santoriginal Tours and it was fantastic! This company was not only easy to work with, but they listened to what we wanted to see in Santorini and they put together a first-rate program. Aphrodite was our guide and she was wonderful. We plan on returning to Santorini and it goes without saying that when we come back, we will use Santoriginal Tours with Aphrodite as our guide. Dr. Rick Chacon
Aphrodite was our guide and she was FANTASTIC! She is VERY knowledgeable about the local history and she is extremely polite and helpful. We are pleased to return to Santorini and it goes without saying that we will use Santoriginal Tours with Aphrodite as our guide!
What a great tour in Santorini. George was a fantastic your guide. Personal, professional, and knowledgeable. We highly recommend him and the tour. He was very considerate with my husband not being so mobile and he tried to accommodate us by making sure he didn't have to walk uphill too much. We started on Fira at the top of the cable car and started our journey around Santorini. We went to Fira Stefani for views and then went to Oia next to avoid the crowds. We customized our tour and went to Megalochori which was a really cool village. We stopped in a bakery where I got delicious pistachio and coconut baklava. He took us to the Red Beach with great views. We also stopped at Santo Wines for a quick tasting and the views. And then he dropped us back in Fira. George was very informative and we had a great day with him. I highly recommend this tour!
