“The best way to see Santorini - We were only here for a day, so this option was a great way to see the city with an abbreviated amount of time. Our guide was amazing, hospitable, knowledgeable, and just nice. He made sure he took us to the iconic spots we wanted, but also some that we didn’t know to look for. He was very informative about the architecture, culture, and more. Great photographer to boot. Would highly recommend.” - Reviewed on 2024-07-28
