During this full day tour, we basically drove from one side of the island to the other and saw all of the major highlights on Santorini. It was a very good tour made even better by our excellent tour guide Niko. Our only regret is that we opted out of the red Beach as we had a catamaran scheduled the next day, but high winds canceled our catamaran, so we missed the red Beach. Won't do that again. We ate lunch at the black Beach, and went through 2 small villages where Niko walked us through cave houses and local alleys and places that the locals live. Great tour, highly recommend! Niko was our best tour guide yet!
An amazing day in Santorini. She was so knowledgeable and friendly. Learned a lot of the history and culture. A fun day. Thank you.
The Guide was excellent. He was courteous, knowledgeable and brought us to all the places we wanted to go
Highly recommend this tour!! Our guide, Anna, was a very personable, friendly lady who met us at the top of the cable car exit. After introductions, she explained to us her general plan for showing us around the island but made it known that the tour was mainly in our hands as far as where we went and how long we spent at each stop. Recommend doing this tour in the morning, especially if multiple cruise ships are visiting the day of the tour. We were always one step ahead of the crowds. Anna took us to some of the most beautiful spots on the island that offered breath taking views from all directions. Be prepared however there is some walking involved up and downhill on uneven pavement but it is worth it when you reach your stop. We also were brought to a local farm to sample local food my on site and some local wine also made on the farm. At the farm we also toured the gardens and learnt about the growing process as the island is made up of volcanic rock. Very interesting and also a nice break to the tour. The entire island is fantastic and this tour offers you the best chance to see the most beautiful parts of it.
Michael was a fantastic guide - extremely knowledgeable and considerate of every group member. Great timing! He made sure we arrived at the best views and photo spots ahead of the crowds from larger tours. Michael tailored the tour to our interests and ensured we had enough time at each stop. Very enjoyable tour!
Our guide was excellent showing us the best spots for photos...even taking pics of our group and sending to us after our tour! Would highly recommend this tour!
This was was a great experience. Our guide Nicolas was phenomenal. Nick was very knowledgeable and thorough. He provided full details about every location we visited and made sure All our questions were answered. At the end of the tour he went out of the way to stop at a beach and gathered some pumice rocks for my wife. I highly recommend this tour.
We saw EVERYTHNG on Santorini! The trip was tailored for us and was at our pace. I would recommend this tour to everyone.
Nikolas was an excellent guide. He took us all over the island. He was on time and very informative and navigated us thru all the busy areas with tourists.
Dmitri provided a very friendly and personalized experience. He took us to places off the beaten path that most tourists don't know about. Thank you Dmitri!!
Dimitris was extremely knowledgeable and his English speaking was excellent. He helped us see the highlights of the Island, including Aio, Fira, and the red and black sand beaches. Highly recommend, good value
Gina was the best tour guide ever !!!! She was amazing!! She told us everything about Santorini. Took us to the most beautiful spots ! We where celebrating our 30 year anniversary and surprised us with a cake !! Had a wonderful lunch on the beach ! 100% recommend this tour! Just Amazing !!Thank you Gina for a unforgettable trip to Santorini
Our guide Nektaria and our driver Pavlos were the best. Our day in Santorini was short but we covered all the best places . The red and black beaches were places we wish could have stayed and enjoyed. The walks through the towns were somewhat difficult but we managed. The sites we visited were picture perfect. Nektaria gave us a great history of the island and allowed us time at home grown winery for tastings and a tour. Great place.
I had never booked with Viator before so I didn’t know what to expect.....We couldn’t have been more pleased...Michael was our tour guide for the day and Georgios was the driver....they were so great...knowledgeable, friendly, took us over the entire island and some extra spots. They got us in and out of the busy spots like Oia but of course we saw all the highlights and so many spots we could never have seen on our own. They spoke English very well so there was no difficulty understanding them. I would highly recommend them to anyone....thank you Michael and Georgios for introducing us to Greece...you’re the best
Nikolas was amazing. He was on time, informative, helpful and fun! Best tour guide I’ve ever had. Janice and Irma Wolin
We had a 6 hour tour with Athanasios, aka Thanos, and it was amazing. He picked all the best spots and views and loved taking pictures for us ..he was very nice and loved to chat about the everything, but also knew alot of Greece and Santorini. I would highly recommend this private tour
This was the highlight of our Mediterranean Cruise trip. Michael did a great job! The limo was immaculately clean and very comfortable. He was very nice and personable. He took us to all the great places and patiently answered all of our questions. He took pictures of our group for us and gave us options for what we wanted to see. Fantastic!
Our tour guide is Kostas who is very friendly and knowledgeable. He took us to some of the most amazing spots for pics. We saw everything that we planned to see. Definitely recommend Kostas and this tour.
Ok, so I cant say enough positive things about our day in Santorini. We were a bit stressed meeting our guide on time due to the delay in the boat from our cruise and despite being an hour later that when we told our guide we would be there, we showed up and he was still there holding a sign with my name on it. The van was spacious and comfortable. Kostas was so friendly and personable- he truly seems to love people and love what he does. We were traveling with 4 adults and an almost 2 year old so he tailored the day to things that would be interesting to us all. He made sure we hit up the not to miss spots and also took us to some places that were more private and less touristy and great for our son to run around and play. My son was not feeling great so he even helped us find a pharmacy so we could get him medication. He spent the whole day with us- sharing bits of information about the island, geography, culture, etc while we were driving and had a flexible, go-with-the-flow attitude. He took us to some of the best places to get photos with a Santorini panorama in the background. Overall, I would say we got so lucky with Kostas and this tour. It was the best way I could imagine to spend the day on the island. Would definitely highly recommend.
This was the best tour we had while in Greece. Kostas, our tour guide from Santorini Roadtrip was nice and knowledgeable. We felt so comfortable around him as if he is a family. I will surely recommend this tour with Kostas
This tour is a great way to see the island of Santorini highlights. Lunch and swim at Black Sand Beach were a great treat. We really enjoyed learning about the history of the island and how it came to be. I have been using viator for all my tours within the past two years and I have not booked a bad one. Definitely recommend this tour.
EXCELLENT SERVICE! Michael from Santorini Road Trips was our guide and we couldn't be more happy with our private tour at beautiful Santorini. I called the number in my booking and Michael gave clear instructions on taking cable cars at cruise ship terminal. Our group of 8 with 3 young kids was greeted by Michael, his new Mercedes van with air conditioning and cold bottled water. He accommodated our schedule and requests and we toured Oia village where the signature Santorini postcard pictures were taken. Then we headed to a beach side restaurant for fresh seafood and we love the Tomato balls that Michael recommended. We also visited the family owned winery with a lovely donkey and the Prophet Elias Monastery and learned about the history and island culture. Michael is an awesome and polite guide and we couldn't be happier with the private tour.
ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING! Most of us in the 6 person group have cruised around the world taking excursions -- this is one of the best any of us could remember. Anything we asked or wanted, Costas made it happen. He took us to the touristy spots we needed to see, but more importantly got us out of the crowds to the quieter jewels of the island. Saw an amazing winery with outstanding sample foods, met the donkey marco polo who does like selfies, walked up to see the red and black beaches, and took in the local food and spirits on the way back to the ship. We all have been raving about Costas and wish we could have spent much more time with him. Highly recommend this tour for the price and for the experience!!!
I want to thank santorini road trips , the company which provided me with this service , for everything they did to make of my experience in santorini unique and amazing! I booked this tour 18hours before the scheduled time however , Michael - the Owner- reached me right away and provided me with the information about my tour guide and other related information about my tour. Nonetheless to say , I also have to thank my tour guide - Vassilis , who was not only knowledgeable about the area but also about the history behind every single place we visited . An amazing experience from beginning to end. We felt sad to say goodbye to Vassilis , it felt like we were saying goodbye to a friend who opened the door of his house to us. Seriiusly . Id recommend you to take this tour , it was incredible ! After our tour ended , Michael contacted me directly to ask me about my experience and asked me for feedback , if any, about how he could have improved my experience. I was happy to tell him I was pleased and beyond grateful for the service he provided me with !
