Amazing tour in Santorini - This was the best tour we could have done in Santorini. Our guide, George, was amazing!! He was so thoughtful in dropping us off and picking us up so we didn’t have to walk back where we had been. He gave a lot of info and answered all of our questions. He even took the best pictures of us when we asked him. He took us to everywhere we wanted to see. George even recommended a lunch place that was delicious and had beautiful views. This tour with George is definitely a must do!

Excellent & Accommodating - George was an excellent guide. We had timing issues due to our cruise and the lines at the cable car so he was extremely accommodating to our situation and waited for us. He took us everywhere we had time to go which we absolutely loved.

George was wonderful - George was amazing. He was very much wanting to make sure our tour was worth the money and took us all around the island. Made several stops to have us take pictures and walk around Oia then took us to two smaller towns and showed us around. Loved it.
