In this picturesque and non-touristic environment, you’ll truly be basking in the local culture and lifestyle.
5. Akrotiri Lighthouse
Optional visit: Built by a French company in 1892, it’s considered one of the most beautiful of the Cycladic Islands and a unique point to watch the sunset. Standing on the edge of a high cliff right above the sea, its position is ideal for taking panoramic pictures and admiring Santorini's famous Caldera from a different point of view.
6. Red Beach
Optional visit: The most unique natural beach of the island, where red is the dominant color. Take amazing pictures of the enormous volcanic rocks and the steep hills that create a captivating wild scenary. This wonderful volcanic landscape will capture your complete attention.
7. Perissa Black Sand Beach

Optional visit: Admire the most breathtaking view from the island's highest peak. From this vantage point, you will enjoy a striking view of the entire island.

11. Akrotiri Archaeological Site
Optional visit: Explore Akrotiri Archaeological Site and go back into time to marvel the secrets and wonders of this lost ancient city. This 4000 year old Bronze age settlement prospered for centuries before being eradicated by a great volcanic eruption.

Optional visit: A former tomato cultivation & production facility, which has been transformed into a modern Museum. Learn about Santorini’s famous cherry tomato, which is thicker-skinned, sweeter and smaller than the garden-variety because of the island’s volcanic soil and lack of water.

The views were breath-taking. Guide/driver Tásos custom-tailored the day of sight-seeing to our interests. We spent as long as we wanted in each place where we stopped. We omitted places we were not interested in. Tásos’ suggestions of what to see, where to eat, and to see Oía early to avoid massive crowds were excellent. Tásos was thoughtful in accomodating my difficulty walking and climbing. He was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed getting to know him.

Thank you Tasos for the wonderful 5 hour tour of Santorini. We really enjoyed our time with you learning about the island and seeing key points of interest. I only gave a 4 star as the van backseats weren’t as comfortable with no arm rests and small size windows. Thank you for accommodating me to sit up front and for ensuring I didn’t have to walk up steep inclines due to my knee. Much appreciated you were 5 stars but prefer a different vehicle.

Not a 5 rating. 5++. Our driver/guide Fanis navigated us from one end of the island to the other, expertly avoiding crowds as much as possible (there were 5 cruise ships in port). His knowledge of the island is legendary. Our lunch along black beach was quite the experience. The ladies really appreciated his care, helping them to navigate the paths and steps.

A shout out to George (the owner) as well.

George K served as our driver and guide for two days in Santorini. We have traveled across the world and, hands down, George was one of the best guides we have ever had. We decided on the tailor made option as we strategically selected sites - some of which were off the beaten path but what made this trip so memorable was that following a wine tasting - we heard music and the smell of lamb across the street. It was Orthodox Easter Sunday and the Greek family invited to share the meal and dance traditional Greek music. We experienced the real Greece all thanks to George K!

Thanos made this day more than we could ever imagine. He is a native from Santorini who knew everything there was to know about the island. He took the time to show us all of the islands history and tool us through some of the smallest allys and sidewalks so we could see everything that beautiful Santorini has to offer. He took us to Black beach and Red beach and some of the most scenic places there were. He also took us to a restaurant that the locals went to where the food was amazing. Please note that there is alot of walking on this tour so make sure you wear comfy shoes. At the end of the day he even gave us a special treat and at the end of this tour we were more like family. I would highly recommend this tour, you won't be sorry
