Yiannis gave an excellent tour. Our adult family of 7 (ages 29-63) had a 5 hour layover on Santorini. We hied Yiannis to give us a quick tour and lunch on the island. We were able to see the main sights and have lunch at an excellent restaurant. He explained the sights well and provided the perfect tour that everyone enjoyed.
