Billy our tour guide was amazing from beginning to end. I was 15 mins late due to cable cars and was worried it was going to cut into our time but he was very patient and nice and made sure to show us all the sites throughout the beautiful island. Stopped for lunch and black beach and was just breathtaking. He was fun and outgoing and took many memorable pics of my husband and I. Highly recommend Billy!! Also very knowledgeable.

We had a great day with George. He took us to all the great spots for photos and took such good photos of my husband and me. During our drive, he talked about the history of the island and gave us lots of other stories that were entertaining and hilarious lol. It did feel like we were hanging out with a friend after just an hour driving around. If you want one of those super informational and formal tours like they usually do on those big bus tours, this private tour is not for you. It’s more of a casual vibe, go with the flow, see the sights, take a bunch of pics type of tour. If you get George, consider yourself lucky!

We had the ABSOLUTE BEST experience when booking with Santorini tours. Our daughter was having a surprise proposal at a venue in Santorini. We needed to coordinate with our driver of the tour and the proposal planner. Alex, the owner of the tour company, went ABOVE AND BEYOND helping to coordinate everything. To the point that he even drove our spacious and luxurious van. Our tour guide Mary was absolutely wonderful. We were brought to special spots that she knew were less crowded and had amazing picturesque views. She went out of her way to ensure that we captured the best pictures and also experienced the authentic and local villages which was magical. I cannot recommend enough, you will not regret this once in a lifetime experience! Thank you Alex and Mary for making this experience all that more memorable ❤️

We had a small group of women and Mary and Demotri were our tour guides and driver. They were AWESOME. Mary is kind, funny, patient and very knowledgeable. She showed us the best of Santorini but also gave us plenty of time to go at our own pace. I throughly enjoyed the experience and believe Mary made it so special. I actually forgot my phone in the van and she made sure to connect with our group leader to arrange a time to drop it off to me. I am forever grateful to Mary and Demitri 🙏
