The Experience. The Information and Historical Places. The Sceneries. The Flexibility of the Tour Guide. Everything was well explained, well communicated, and the tour guide cares for what you want to see and where you want to go. They will also know where the best places to go. I recommend this for seeing the bests in Santorini in one day.

We went to Santorini for a day because our cruise was going to be there for a day. Our guide was Vasilis for that day and he was absolutely amazing!!! He took us to everything we wanted to see and had great knowledge of everything. We would love to book him again this coming year when we take our kids.

My fiancé and I had an incredible time in Santorini. George is a fantastic tour guide! We were a bit delayed off our cruise ship tender, George assured us it was no problem and was patiently waiting for us at the top of the cable car station. He then took us to the most beautiful sights Santorini had to offer. He helped make our limited time on the island special, and was a great camera man as well! He even sent use pictures of the places we didn't have time to see. We can't thank George enough and can't wait to visit again!

I can’t say enough good things about our day with George. He was knowledgeable without dominating the time we spent. He listened to what we wanted to do, inserted some ideas, and knew where to take us for the best views and best experiences. In some cases, he went to places where other guides do not normally go. His restaurant selection was perfect. It felt like a friend showing us his home.

This was our favorite part of our entire trip! The views were breathtaking! We took lots of photos! And our tour guide, Vasilis, was great!! He was kind, informative, passionate about his work and made us laugh too! He picked us up from the airport on time and dropped us off at the airport on time. He scheduled everything on our agenda in a timely manner, took us to the most amazing places in Santorini and was kind enough to take photos of me and my mom. This trip was a birthday gift for my mom and Vasilis showed us an amazing time!

We took the 8-hour tour with George, opting for 08:00 pick-up. I can’t say enough about George as a guide. He was pleasant, amusing and knowledgeable. He took us to the best spots for pictures, places we would have never found on our own. We wanted to see Oia, but not at sunset, so he took us there first and the streets were all but deserted. It was wonderful! He would drop us at locations and then park, meeting us a few minutes later to guide us through the location. This meant that the van was close when it was time to go and we didn’t waste time or steps backtracking to some parking lot. We loved the restaurant he recommended at the Black Sand Beach, a beautiful place with great food. We saw and experienced Santorini in a way we never would have on our own, and certainly not on a big bus tour. Choosing the private tour meant that we saw and did only what we wanted to do, and how long we spent at any location was entirely up to us. Santorini was the last stop of a 4-week trip. This was the best experience of the trip and the best tour we’ve taken anywhere in the world to date.

If you want the best experience in Santorini, book this tour with Santorini Tours and Thanos as your tour guide! He made our experience memorable and enjoyable with his knowledge of his hometown, his attentiveness and excellent customer service. We made the best choice of getting the tailor-made day tour because we were able to go to so many places all in one day in a comfortable air-conditioned Mercedes van, which we wouldn’t have been able to if we did it ourselves or with a group. We were picked up at our hotel, went to Fira 3 Bells, Megalochori town and cavehouse, Akrotiri lighthouse and archaeological site, Red Beach, Black Beach where we had delicious lunch at 41, Profitis Ilias Monastery and lastly to Santo Wines in Pyrgos for a little wine tasting. We loved his food and wine recommendations like Santorini salad and Assyrtiko wine. He took us to instagrammable spots and took our photos too. He communicated clearly our schedule and where he would pick us up each time. We were dropped off just in time to freshen up and watch the sunset in our private pool in Oia. We saw him again the next day while we were out exploring Oia town and him with another tourists and he greeted us cheerfuly. Thank you Thanos!!!

Special thanks to Thanos, our private tour guide, who made our one-day tour in Santorini truly unforgettable. This tour lasted about 4 hours. Thanos took us to all the picturesque spots and even became our photographer. We visited Oia Village, the famous Blue Dome, Megalochori (with its underground cave), and Pyrgos Kallistis—the highest point of Santorini—to watch the amazing sunset. I highly recommend joining this private tour! You can customize what you want to see without having to compromise with other tour members. Thanos shared the history and culture of Santorini, and we learned so much from him. He is a caring and professional tour guide, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Santorini.

We arrived on the Windstar Legend going ashore at 8 am. We took the cable car and met our guide Banos at 9 am. He was there waiting for us. What a day, we saw what we wanted to see with no rush. Banos took lots of excellent pictures of us, which we really appreciated. This is the way to go when you only have one day. We were extremely happy with our day in Santorini and will recommend!

George was an amazing tour guide, we had a good time with him. He took a bunch of pictures of us so it was like a free photoshoot.

This tour was so great - our guide Thanos gave us an unforgettable tour of Santorini! We even got to visit his home town. He was so knowledgeable about the island and shared so much with us while providing us with great memories we will cherish for a lifetime!! Can’t recommend them enough!

Michael is the best. Arrived early alleviating any concerns regarding pick up. Excellent communicatiion, very knowledgeable, and courteous. Above and beyond service.

THANOS was great!!! His suggestions were spot on! He was friendly, knew the island and it was an overall awesome experience!

We planned a one day tour to Santorini from Athens. We came by the morning flight and returned by the last flight in the evening. Our guide Panagiota Fantopoulou was absolutely amazing. She went out of her way to make sure that we were comfortable and that we covered all the important landmarks of Santorini in the 8 hour trip. She was so good to our kids, by the end of the day they started calling her “aunt”. I would strongly recommend this tour and especially the guide Panagiota Fantopoulou

We had a fabulous tour with Panagiota. She was punctual, professional, personable, and knowledgeable. We enjoyed learning about Santorini from a local's perspective. She took us everywhere!! She knew where to go to beat the crowds and take the best pictures. We could've have seen so much of Santorini without her. We highly recommend Panagiota! Kudos also to George for the booking process as he answered all my questions promptly.
