Our tour of Santarini hosted by Aprhrodite was excellent. We enjoyed seeing all of the highlights of Santarini and thankful that we were on a private tour versus the crowded cruise ship shore Excursions. We really enjoyed Red Beach, as well, and perfect ending with wine tasting at Santos Winery, great day! Thank you, Aphrodite.

I can't believe we took so long to write this review. We had such an amazing time on our sightseeing tour with Nicolas. We told him we wanted to see the tourist areas but not spend too much time there and spend our time off exploring the island. He told us all about the history of the island, his wife's family and everything there was to know. He showed us some amazing views that felt so private as many of our stops had very few people. We decided to end our day drinking a bottle of wine at a local winery that he took is to and we didn't want to leave! The views were absolutely incredible, wine was tasty and everyone was so friendly! Can't recommend this tour enough if you want to experience Santorini but only have a day.

What a wonderful day. Like many others, we took this tour as an alternative to what our cruise ship was offering. Our guide (Nikolas) meet us as planned at the top of the cable car. After a nice introduction to Santorini, off we went to explore the island. I found Nikolas to be a knowledgeable and friendly guide who was great at detailing the history and importance of every location we visited. If visiting Santorini on your own, or if arriving on a cruise ship, I would highly recommend this private tour. Nikolas, the short stop at the brewery and the nice lunch location made our day. Thanks for everything.
