Great Tour! - Our Tour was GREAT. Makis was a wonderful guide. We learned a lot from him about his home country...Greece. He worked with us to make the tour exactly what we wanted it to be. We only had a day on Santorini, but left feeling like we saw all the beautiful sights. Highly recommend Makis and Santorini Magical Travel as the perfect way to see Santorini. Thanks Makis!

Mikas was a great guide! - We had an amazing time with Mikas! He was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Santorini. We were able to make some adjustments to our trip as we saw things that caught our eye. He was very personable, and being fifth generation had lots to share. It was a fabulous trip and we were able to take in all the sights of the island. He was also helpful in arranging transportation to the airport when we needed to leave. I would highly recommend him for a tour!

Excellent local tour guide! - We had a great time taking in the views of Santorini with Makis! He was very knowledgeable about the history of the island, and was great about offering us different options for views that were tailored to our interests. He also recommended a great restaurant for lunch. He was personable, knowledgeable, and even helped us figure out logistics from our lodging to the airport. I would highly recommend booking him for an incredible experience.

The perfect customized tour for our honeymoon - We had a fantastic day tour with Makis! He was able to customize a tour of the island for us with our limited time. We were able to visit a few different beaches, Oia and Akrotiri. He's very professional, friendly and knows so much about the island because of his family. We made so many great memories on our tour and were able to get some fantastic pictures. Thank you Makis!

Review of the 4 hr Tailor made tour - We booked the Tailor Made Tour. Our guide came to the cable car upper station at 11:20. He was friendly, a good driver, and told us much about Santorini history and what Santorini locals think about many things. For our 4 hour tour, we saw the lighthouse 20 min, Akrotiri ruins 50 min and the Profitis Ilias Monastery 10 min. We grabbed a sandwich too 45 min. The rest of the time was driving. The sites were very interesting. We did not see the red beach, the black beach, castle of st nickolas, or Megalochori (we really wanted to see Oia). If you want to see more, you should probably book 1 to 2 more hours. Our guide did not offer us additional hours to see the other sites on our tour list.

Santorini tour with Makis - Makis was wonderful. His personality was easy to love. He was down to earth, sincere, funny and witty. We quickly discovered he was the best driver/tour guide ever. We used his services for round trip airport transfers as well as a 6 hour tour one day He shared many stories and was very knowledgeable of the history of Santorini. He could answer any questions we had. All 8 of us bonded with him immediately and wanted to take him back home with us He was flexible and accommodating to our wants and needs. He took us all around the island and we ended up in St George area for a great lunch at a restaurant he recommended overlooking the beach. On the way back to our hotel he also stopped at the Santorini brewing company for beer tasting of Crazy Donkey beer. We already referred him to a few friends and will continue to recommend him to anyone who visits Santorini ❤️
