“Best Way to See All of Santorini - I cannot give enough praise for this tour and our guide Mary. We were able to see almost the entire island, north to south, with walks through Oia and Fira, views of the windmills at the top of the mountains, visit with drinks at the black sand beaches, stop at the Akrotiri archeological site, and two wine tastings at a small family sized and modern middle sized vineyards. Perfect way to see the island and Mary was super knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating of all our requests!” - Reviewed on 2024-04-09
