We loved our day out with Panos! In Santorini, a private tour with a local is the best way to see the island if you have limited time. Group tours would get crowded and take away from the intimate experience that Santorini deserves. He picked us up at our Oia hotel on time with no issue and whisked us away in a Mercedes sedan. Very comfortable!
Panos is knowledgeable about Santorini's geography, agriculture, history, and of course all the best photo spots. This tour is best for people who truly want to learn about Santorini and its wonders, not just the Instafamous places (but you'll see those, too).
The itinerary was up to us but I provided my top requests and Panos designed an efficient route to see them all. Starting in Oia, we saw Fira, Thira, Megalochori, a black sand beach, a fascinating wine cave museum and tasting, and some secret spots to get great photo angles of the island. All while chatting away learning as much as we could about beautiful Santorini.
Panos answered our million questions and was very enjoyable and personable to spend the day with. It was like having a local friend show you around their town for the day! We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and can't thank Panos enough for the experience he showed us. Highly recommended!!

We were two hours late for our appointment, due to wind issues and Tinder boats having to wait. Our guide waited for us! What a great tour we had even though we had a shorter time due to these issues!

Sadly, we did not see Santorini. We waited in line to catch the cable car in plenty of time to meet our guide when the electricity failed and the car failed with it. We waited in line for an hour more hoping the power would be restored. We walked to a small restaurant for something to drink - still hoping for power to get us to the top and hoping our guide would have waited as well. With no wifi, we had no means of reaching the guide to advise that we were still trying to get to the top. Taking the stairs or riding a donkey were not viable options for 6 seniors. Over 2 hours later, we finally gave up and returned to our ship. Santorini was to be a highlight of this trip for me, but I'll have to be happy with the distant view I had from my balcony.

Great 5 hour tour of Santorini. Natalia spoke great English and was very knowledgeable. Did not rush us at each stop and let us personalize our experience. Great value.

We had the best time with our guide, Natalia! She was so knowledgeable and accommodated every one of our requests. She also is a great photographer and took many of our pictures on our camera for us. There is absolutely no way we would have been able to see as much of the island that we did if we didn’t book this tour. 10/10 would recommended and definitely ask for Natalia—she’s the best!!

Perfect day! We left it up to our driver to show us the Island & culture. Saw many highlights of Santorini without the crowds. Would highly recommend this tour. Give yourself PLENTY of time for the cable car ride back as the lines are LONG, a couple of hour wait time. 4 cruise ships in port that day.

The vistas, the walks through towns, and the geology lesson were all great. The driver was knowledgeable, personable and patient with picture-taking. He was able to maneuver well around the island.

Our guide Nikolas was wonderful! He took our family of five to many places and avoided the crowds, and we were able to see all the highlights of Santorini that we wanted to see and he got us back in time for our ship. I highly recommend Nikolas do anyone visiting Santorini!
