A perfect day in Santorini - It was a super great tour that left nothing to be desired. Elisa is such a great guide who has a lot of knowledge about the island. She was awesome! Nikos is the best driver ever!

Great Tour and Tour Guides - The tour was prompt. The places visited were good way to start knowing Santorini. The guide, Kim, was very cordial. A great way to have a quick tour of Santorini and learn a little bit about the island. Will recommend it for anyone to try.

The driver that... - The driver that originally picked us up, well, he received a phone call that had him screaming, he then proceeded to rage drive, he was skidding around corners, blow through stop signs, and drive so fast, my husband and I were terrified! We were being thrown around the car; we didn’t have time to put on the seatbelts! We thought we were going to crash! When he picked up our tour guide, she tried to calm him down, but she was scared also. The rest of the tour, once we got on the bus, was perfect! I would recommend to anybody wanting to see the island.

A great way to see the island - A superbly organised, informative tour. A viewpoint to start off with followed by a lovely walk around ancient Emporio. We then had a really interesting tour around the Akrotiri site which dates back to 1600 BC. Lunch at beautiful Perissa beach and wine tasting plus a perfect end with the sunset in Oia. Kim, our guide was super friendly and knowlegable and did not stop giving us interesting facts in between each stop. Our driver was equally excellent! Highly recommend. Bus was on time for our pick up in Firostefani and dropped us back there right near out hotel. It was perfect 😊

Great tour guide, not so great driver. - This tour was OK. It was a bigger group tour, a bus, so about 25 people. The guide, Mary was very nice and explained things as we drove around. But because the tour is for a large group, it's not very personal. I did not like the driver, I can't recall his name, but he was not friendly or personable at all. At one point, I went back early to sit on the bus to wait for my family, and the driver started smoking in the bus. And he closed the back door! I had to get out. It was beautiful to see Oia, but it's way too crowded. WAY to crowded. Especially around that castle to see the sunset. I could not stand the crowds. You can get lost so quickly. I actually would recommend this tour, just hope you don't get the same driver we got.

Just ok and not ok - Very poor communication. The start time for tour was 10:30 am, there were no any other communications about time. Yet at 10:15 am - few minutes away from meeting point I was told that bus left as I didn’t show up before 10 am. I was able to catch tour later. There was terrible lack of communication about time for going back. Last chapter was without guide - in hands of driver. We were told many times that bus would leave at 5:50 pm. However no one said where exactly bus would be. There were a few parking lots in Oia and place for sunset watching was a quite a muse and I couldn’t find bis on time. Tour itself was just Ok:…

Disappointed tourist - I was in the lobby of my hotel at 10:15. The tour guide left already. The pick up time was 10:30. I talked to someone was outside of the hotel. I was told someone else will be picking me up. I was outside the hotel when they called. I was left again. It was not made clear the actual pick up point. I deserve a refund
