Highly recommend this & Maria! - My husband and I had an amazing experience with Maria! She was knowledgeable on every piece of information you could have wanted to know about Santorini down to the local places to grab coffee. Maria’s energy is sweet, kind & so lovely. She is so easy and excited about food and wine and it’s so clear in her personality and delivery with food. Her relationship with the restaurants and stops along our tour was always polite, and kind. The amount of food we ate was absolutely perfect and totally worth the amount we paid. I would do it again and again if I could! Maria was truly an amazing addition to our tour and I wish I could hire Maria to come everywhere we traveled because she was just that phenomenal!

Beautiful views, great food, and wonderful guide - Gus was an AMAZING tour guide! We learned a lot about the local towns and landmarks, and most importantly, had fabulous food. He even made us homemade Greek sweets and brought us into a private wine cave. He timed our sunset views perfectly to have beautiful views of the island. Even the walking portions of the tour was casual and well paced. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough - one of my absolute favorite experiences while in Greece!

The best flavours and views of Santorini in one tour! - If you want to try a wealth of Santorini specialties in a one go, you have to book this tour! Every stop I said "OMG, I wanted to try this!" and then also awed at views and sampled things I wasn't expecting too. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and very easy to get along with. Each stop felt special, we loved this tour. If you only have a short time in Santorini, this is a great way to experience a walk along the caldera through some of the most beautiful towns and try lots of flavours.

Fun, Interesting, and Delicious! - Kostis was a great tour guide. He shared really interesting history of Santorini at the beginning of the tour and told us about the local food and drinks as we were trying them at each stop. Everything was delicious and we had a great time. At the end, we were able to tour a private wine cellar and ended up staying after with the remaining members of the tour to have more drinks in the beautiful restaurant above the cellar called Pelican Kipos. We loved this tour and are glad we did it. Highly recommend!

Amazing food tour, well worth doing! - Gus was an excellent guide and took us to a variety of local spots where we sampled some of the best food and drink! The tour was really relaxed and Gus felt like an old friend as he told us about the history of Santorini and about the places we visited. We even got to see a secret wine cellar which was awesome! Highly recommended.

Lovely way to spend an evening - Very impressed with Gus who led the tour. Hos knowledge was excellent and we all learnt things we didn't know about Santorini from him. The stops for local food and drink were well planned and plentiful and, by the end of the 4 hours, we were well fed and watered. The walk itself was not too strenuous and could be managed by people of all ages I'm sure. After all, if you're on this island you know what the walks are like!

Sunset walk - The tour was a walk from a high point in town to a low point in another town. There were several stops for eating and drinking, but not a lot of flexibility, like everyone was too full for meat-on-a-stick by the second to last stop and nothing lighter was available. Also a few people in our group prefer beer to wine but the tour was pretty wine-centric. Our guide was fine. Not worth the 1000 euros for what it was.
