Great tour! - This was an excellent tour. Our guide, Fotis, was great. It was the perfect mix of walking and driving in a comfortable, nice, air conditioned van. They even picked us up from our location we were staying at and dropped us back off, it was so convenient. My husband and I both thought the tour was great.

Great half day tour - Fotis was a great tour guide and showed us most of the island. The first stop was at an amazing coffee shop and bakery to start the tour which he bought us a drink and pastry. We liked ending the tour in OÃa as there was plenty to see there. I recommend this tour.

He was very kind and went out of his way to be helpful. The van was also very clean and well-maintained, which made the travel between sights very pleasant. Definitely worth it!"

Excellent Tour and Best Driver/Tour Guider, Mr. Gregory - We booked this tour for our family and 12 friends. We sincerely thank Mr. Gregory (our driver) for his excellent service. He is very knowledgeable, humorous, friendly and willing to help. He was very helpful, and it's especially worth mentioning that he extended our tour time by an hour free of charge and took us to Santorini Airport.
