Great tour with our guide Fon!! - This was a great tour. We traveled the entire length of Santorini. Our tour guide was Xenofon, or Fon (pronounced phone) for short. He was fantastic. I have no idea how good the other guides are, I cant imagine they could be better than Fon. Great personality, wonderfully knowledgable, he answered questions we had before we had the chance to ask them. He picked us up at our hotel in Kamari. We drove up the west coast with stops in Fira and Firostefani. We had a long stop in Oia. Lisa took a hundred pictures. Oia is beautiful and crowded. Fon gave us hints soon how to find the best spots for pictures and they worked. We beat the crowds! We then headed down the eastern side all the way to the lighthouse with some beautiful stops along the way. The lighthouse was packed with people to see the sunset. The parking was so bad I'm sure some of those people are still stuck there. Fon showed us a better spot and we watched the sunset with 6 other people. It was awesome. I'd tell you where it was if I actually knew where we were. I think your going to have to hire Fon to find out. Believe me it will be worth your time and the price.

Santorini Sunset Tour - Santorini Sunset Tour
We are a group of 6 friends and we were delighted with our decision to explore Santorini with our fabulous tour guide. Jorge was personable and entertaining, he had great energy, was very candid and well informed of island highlights and history, and was super responsive to our endless questions. He took extra care of our group and each of us are grateful for his contagious enthusiasm and hospitality.
Oia village fulfilled our expectations and more. With the stunning vistas, cliff side bistros, boutique hotels and endless shopping opportunities, it would be easy to linger for a few days. Highly recommend visiting in the offseason (early October), which meant many less tourists navigating narrow alleyways, and cooler temperatures (2 weeks prior, it was 40+ degrees 😱)
A quick visit to Monastary Elias featured a great photo opportunity as it sits at the highest point of the island. We also took advantage of the local market to purchase locally grown and sourced products from the monastery. Definitely worth the switchback’y drive up.
Throughout our day, Jorge presented many options for sites to explore. Among them, we opted to wrap our adventure with a mountaintop winery to witness the gorgeous Santorini sunset. The pairing of wine flights, delicious seafood and a stellar sunset with fabulous friends made it a very memorable experience.
Do this tour. You will see sights that you will never forget. And ask for Jorge… he will make sure you want to return to Santorini again ❤️❤️❤️

Great private tour of Santorini - We had an excellent private tour of Santorini with our amazing guide, Xenofon.
The itinerary for the tour captured all the main tourist spots plus some additional stops off the main tourist routes. Xenofon made changes to the route live as we were discussing the things we most wanted to see, so we all felt we had a day that was really tailored to us.
Highly recommended and thank you for a lovely day Xenofon 👍🏻

Top sites on Santorini in 5 hours, personalized. - Xenophon was not only an expert driver on this maze of roads, but the combination of his excellent English and knowledge of everything from growing grapes to archeology was impressive. As a small group, we were able to customize our day, and include the Acrotiki Archeological site, my favourite. A fantastic day, Xeno.

Your was great and Evans was better. - Came on Odyssey of the Seas. Santorini is a tender port and the cable car system is a comedy. I went up in a donkey and it was the highlight of my kids trip. My poor wife walked up the steps with a stroller and my oldest son. She made it but my oldest son was about to lose it over that. Luckily once we met up with our tour guide Evans it got better. He guided us out of the tourist throng mess. We loaded up in a private Mercedes van that was very clean and modern. Evans took us to some nice sites that weren’t over run and gave us plenty of time at each. Evans also switched for us some of the itineraries since we weren’t that interested in swimming at the beach for example (since we are from Florida) and even extended the tour at the end and took us to an additional stop since we weren’t ready to return to the ship. Over all everything was great.

Private Santorini Tour - Aris our driver was very knowledgeable, friendly, attentive and nice. He would make sure we were comfortable. He gave us water. He outlined our itinerary and asked if we wanted to make any changes. He was very accommodating to our requests. He took us to a private and personal picture spot for sunset viewing. We enjoyed our trip. Punctual to pick and drop us off without sacrificing the routes.

Wasted mlney - Our guide was Ares
He was nice but didn't listen to a thing we said. I paid for a private tour. We had a list of places we wanted to go to. He took us where he wanted to. Completely disregarded everything we said. Even down to what winery we wanted to go to. If you have any idea of what you want to do do not use this service. We didn't get to see 7 things we wanted to and wasted our money.
