Michael, our driver, exceeded expectations - Michael was a fantastic driver and tour guide. He coordinated in advance our link up time. Was exceptionally early and even volunteered to start our tour sooner. He gave us options on the best places to visit. We ended up going to Oia and a vineyard. To my surprise, he took exceptional pictures with my camera so that i did not need selfies the entire time. We stopped at several picture taking spots along our drive. His Mercedes van was spacious, clean, and he had water for us with maps as well. When I return to Santorini, I’ll use Michael again. He exceeded our expectations.

Excellent experience - Dimitrios was a great driver. He was very punctual and arrived before the scheduled time. He was very informative. He took us to all the best spots for taking pictures. He always made sure we were happy and asked if there was anything more he could do for us.

Unparalleled experience - Our guide, George, met us in the melee that was the top of the cable car! How he found us in that mob I’ll never know! Great personality and fun to be with, we had spirited conversation about Greece, past and present. He expertly guided us to the areas that were important for us to explore and get the best experience on Santorini! After he left us we made our way back to the cable car. The tour operator sent us a message informing us that two glasses of wine were waiting for us at Kastro and to ask for Thanos. We were shown to a beautiful table with a million dollar view and treated like royalty by Thanos! A marvelous ending in Santorini!

Stress free and beautiful - Micheal was really the best ever guide and driver, and he was super helpful and accommodating even with our large (and loud) family. Recommend for cruise excursions no stress whatsoever, and much more enjoyable than a bus tour!
