We contacted three different companies requesting a quote for a full day our touring the island. Nikos with Marinakis Tours was the only one to respond and the price he quoted was very reasonable. He has been very communicative and a please to work with.

Our 6 hour private tour was amazing. He catered the tour around things we wanted to see and do. He took us to a restaurant that had the best authentic Greek food that I had tasted on my entire 8 day trip!

We were a group of 11 visiting Santorini and we wanted to spend 1 day to visit around the island and see the most beautiful parts of it. Well, Mr. Nikos he knows the island like the back of his hand! He brought us to the best wineries, restaurant and beaches! He was very friendly and professional and a very good and careful driver. We felt very comfortable in his beautiful Mercedes mini bus and the whole experience was excellent! Highly recommended!! Thank you Nikos for everything, i will not forget your kindness and your big happy smile. I also thank you for the free ride to the airport! I hope to see you again one day and make another tour together in the magnificent island of Santorini!

We went out on an amazing day tour with Nickolas. He was so friendly and knowledgable about the Island and took us to the most amazing places. Our tour was from 10-4 and was the perfect way to see everything on a short break. I cannot recommend enough and we even got our airport transfers with Nickolas too.
Thank you Nickolas!
Thank you Nickolas!

We loved our tour of Santorini!
I highly recommend this tour guide, make sure you book through Marinakis tours. Not only were they kind but they are actually locals that live in this island and know where to go, where to eat, know the history and their customer service was incomparable. We loved every minute of our tour. Electra spoke perfect English and is very cultured and fun. The driver had a very comfortable van and was a great driver. Electra and the driver went out of their way to accommodate our needs and wants. We will definitely come back to this beautiful island again and we will book with Marinakis tours again.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Amazing Santorini - our tour company was Marinakis Tours - we were a big group and were split in 3 huge buses. Took us all over Santorini the beaches, the mountain top, the red rocks and the shopping. Great service for the price we paid and we also go wine on the bus. Great experience with Nikos and Marinakis Tours. The guides spoke perfect English and were so easy to understand. No one was lost or missing - all 185 accounted for. I would highly recommend using this tour company to get your money's worth and more.

I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with Marinakis Tours and our incredible guide, Nikolaos! We had the absolute BEST time exploring Santorini with him and I can’t recommend them enough!
We were visiting for just one day, but enjoyed a WONDERFUL tour in his clean, comfortable car. I believe we initially had the 4 hr tour booked, but he was able to extend it on the spot because our plans allowed us to stay longer. We started off with espressos at a beautiful vineyard and proceeded to see many picturesque high points of the city. We had the most incredible lunch on the water (where our meal swam that very morning) and the best balaclava I could ever dream of! I would absolutely love to come back.
As a tour guide, Nikolaos was so knowledgeable, accommodating, and passionate about his home. It felt like we were family by the end! Him and his team even went above and beyond when I realized (later) that I had left my iPhone in the back of his car! They were so friendly and helpful in finding it and shipping it to my home in California. I was shocked at how fast it got there! It arrived the same day I arrived back from my cruise and was wrapped with so much love and care (so as to protect it during travel), that I was blown away.
I was so touched by this and it simply added to my assurance that this is the BEST tour company to go with! Thank you SO MUCH, Nikolaos (and everyone at Marinakis Tours), for making our trip to Santorini truly special.

We are an older couple who wanted to get a sense of the island and it’s people in a private tour. Helen and George the driver, greeted us on time and proceeded to take us to Oia, our first destination. Since this town is very crowded, Helen’s well planned program to take us there first thing in the morning was perfect, avoiding all the crowds and the hot summer sun.
Helen was a delightful companion and knew how to adjust the tour for our wants and needs. Although she had a programmed tour planned, she adjusted it to accommodate our needs and preferences -beach swimming, wine tasting, view of the island from the highest point and less walking.
She was extremely knowledgeable about Ancient Greece and genuinely shared her thoughts about life in Greece today. We felt we spent a day with a close friend, not a guide.
George was also a considerate, careful and patient driver.

Had the owner himself driving our family of 6 around for roughly 3 days in Santorini. This man was amazing, he was always there when we needed a ride and made it work wherever we needed to be on the island. If you’re traveling in a group and need transport around Santorini, I super highly recommend this man and his company. You will be super happy with your experience and will let you enjoy your time and relax without having to worry about transport. Thank you!!!!!

We did the Wonders of Santorini 6 hour tour, Sun 27/5/18 from the Crown Princess. Nick was an excellent host. Everything was perfect from the itinerary to the vehicle, from Nick's knowledge and commentary to the lunch we had at a restaurant by the beach he took us to. Excellent value for money and highly recommended. Santorini is as breath-taking as the pictures indicate. Thank you Nick!
