I booked this tour mostly because I like knowing the history of the places I visit. Our guide Kostas was great! Very knowledgeable and he was able to answer all our questions regarding any part of Greek history. We even got some time to see the incredible museum here which is one of the most unique museums I’ve ever seen!! It’s the actual ancient archeological dig covered over with a huge building!! You have to see it to appreciate it. And as a bonus to our tour, we got some amazing pictures. Kostas knew all the best picture spots. We literally went to every corner, high and low of the entire island. And he took us to lunch at a great restaurant on the black beach. It was a perfect day for us in Santorini.

In addition to showing us the main points of the island, they helped us with tips and recommendations for restaurants and other programs. Kostas was more than our guide and driver, he made us feel very welcome in Greece 🤗

Harry our private tour guide was phenomenal. He is very knowledgeable about his island. He made our tour so pleasurable. He took us to all the beautiful places for instagram photos while showing us less touristy spots . We had a great lunch at Metaxis mas in Exo Gonia. I recommend this company 100% for a great specialized tour.

When visiting Santorini, the 6 hour Santorini Island Tour is as described: an absolute must! We drove around in an air conditioned Mercedes with our Tour Guide Kostas & saw many beautiful places while learning a great deal about Santorini past & present. We visited Oia, Imerovigli, Pergos, Red Beach & Black Beach among others. This was perfect at the start of our holiday to help us get our bearings & find places we wanted to revisit. Kostas was absolutely brilliant, a true gentleman who made sure we made the most of every location & took beautiful pictures for us to keep forever. It's well worth paying for such a high quality tour, & we'd definitely recommend both Kostas & Santorini Platinum Travel to other visitors looking to explore the island.
