A remarkable day in Greece - Our tour guide was Maksim and he was incredible. We as a family have been going around europe for a few weeks and Maksim was one of the greatest we had. He made the experience fun and enjoyable, he took us to some incredible views and we were able to experience another part of Europe in such a remarkable way because of Maksim. Maksim took to one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to, the food was amazing and it was great service. The staff were nice and I would highly recommend it. Overall me and my family had the best time and I have to highly recommend Maksim and this company!

Best experience!!! - Amazing experience. I was in Santorini in July 2021. I was pressed for time and booked a half day tour. My half day Santorini tour was out of this world!! My tour guide Klaraa was absolutely amazing: knowledgeable, warm, hospitable and fun. It was a customizable private tour. My tour guide arrived on time and asked me what I was interested in visiting. She customized the day according to my desires. I was so impressed with her knowledge about the history of Santorini. I was traveling alone. Having her as my guide felt like I was hanging out with a friend. She showed me all the places I wanted to see, took special pictures for me and at the end took me to this fantastic vineyard, which she recommended!! I am glad she did. The car was fully air conditioned and very clean, with cool water bottles. I highly recommend this tour company! You can’t go wrong with them. Simply the best!!

Fantastic tour!! - Such a fantastic tour! This was easily one of the highlights of my trip to Santorini. My tour guide was very knowledgeable about the region and history. He also knew all of the best places to see the most amazing views and even took pictures of me as well. He was very friendly and made the afternoon really fun and special.

Simply Beautiful! - We arrived on our cruise ship and were very nervous about the time constraints and all the tourist. As soon as we stepped off the cable car, our tour guide Klara was waiting for us with a sign stating our name. We had booked this activity the day prior and she took us on without hesitation. This became a private tour for us and an amazing escape to the south side of the island. We made our way from place to place and captured many beautiful photos due to her knowledge of the area. The last stop was at the black sand beach where we enjoyed lunch and a quick swim in the ocean. Kudos to our driver who maneuvered his was without a sweat. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting a gorgeous escape from the crowds. Thank again for the memorable experience, we hope to see you again someday!

Avoid them - The worst experience ever. Do not book with these guys period. I got so mad! My child started to cry. Micheal tried to drop me off with a map and wanted 60 Euro for nothing told me next time to ask for a guide next time. I told him I said what I was looking for a tour around Santorini not a map. He called the office and tried to sort it out but I was put off by this and wanted nothing to do with these folks. If you want to be robbed go with them. I went with NST Tour the next day. Avoid this hell
