Great way to see Santorini without standing in lines all day - Our day with George was fabulous! We got to see the entire Santorini Island and have hundreds of photos from George's carefully planned stops. The Akrotiri site was interesting and the final stop at Artemis Karomolegos Winery was amazing with the best meal we had in Santorini. Tell your friends and family to visit here for sure!

Santorini at a Glance - Ladies and Gentlemen, he is George and he is the best. He knows the island and where to capture it’s boundless beauty. He knows the rhythm of the cruise boat groups and how to avoid them. He knows the people and the stories. He is George and he provided us with an unforgettable tour.

Mary is the best!! - We spent our honeymoon traveling to different places in Europe which included a few days in Santorini. We wanted to see the beautiful sights of the island, but we also wanted to learn about the culture and history. Most tour guides only know the instagram places, but not detailed information about the island. Mary, our tour guide, was the best possible person for what we wanted to experience. She had the passion and deep knowledge to explain our journey and answer all our questions. Since she has lived there for several years and is one of the most experienced tour guides, she knows unique spots and knows different people at restaurants/ shops and more. If you express what you want, she can set up a great trip for you. You can tell she has a profound and authentic appreciation of the city that goes beyond her job. It was the best part of our time in Santorini. She was also our best tour guide from all the tours we did throughout Europe! Shout out to Dimitris who drove us around all over safely and with good ac. He was also kind to us as we departed. Thank you both for making our honeymoon great!

Perfect day start to finish! - My family and I were on a cruise and Santorini was one of the stops. We are a family of 6. My husband and I, our 3 adult children and my son’s fiancé. Ages 22-28 Any questions I had in the days before this excursion were answered within a few hours via email through the Viator app. So easy! I wanted to be able to have a private tour and itinerary of our own. Our tour guide “Kia” was fantastic. It was a little hectic once getting off the cable car and finding our way through the crowds but She was there right on time. We walked a short way to meet our driver and we were on our way. Kia took a few minutes to go over what it was we wanted to do and see. She had good suggestions and worked out a great itinerary for us. She wanted us to see the city of Fira, in which we were very lucky and it wasn’t crowded at all. Then we went stopped by vineyard and then on to a local village. She suggested a wonderful restaurant on the beach for us to have dinner, she made reservations for us and timed it perfectly for us to leave and have plenty of time to watch the amazing sunset! Kia was a plethora of information! So kind! And we of course made it back in time to get back on the ship. She suggested the stairs so we wouldn’t have to wait for the cable car on the way down.( Which when we got there we heard it was a two hour wait! )So my family and I did the 600 steps in about 20 minutes and that is some of the funniest photo/video footage of our day along side the donkeys haha.

George the Greatest Guide. - Our guide was lots of fun. He was very knowledgeable about Greece. He took us anywhere we wanted to go, and helped translate when it was needed. We also went to a great restaurant called Artemis Karamolegos. The food and drinks were superb. George took great care of us!
