Hello, I am Eugenia and I would be very happy to welcome you on the island of beauty, love, romance and history. I am a licensed tourist guide, which means that in order to be able to give tours in all the archaeological sites and historic monuments of Greece, I had to take a 3 year in-depth course and successfully pass the Greek Ministry of Tourism exams. I am a native Santorinian and I have deep knowledge of its history, culture, traditions . My true love for Santorini is what stimulates me to do my job with passion and sense of responsibility. I want to show you my island through my eyes and to make you live not a simple tour but an auhtentic experience in a lighthearted and friendly way. I want you to discover my island's beauties and history, while you immerse into the real culture and feel as a real local. What I always try to do is to personalize my tours tailored to my customers. Thus every tour can be exclusive, individual, exactly to your liking, informative and above all joyous and memorable. As a private guide , I love to build a more intimate relationship with my guests. . So at the end of the day I want you to feel that you had not only an expert at your service but also a new Greek friend. Since every moment counts, our tour can also combine the opportunity of having with you your own professional photographer who will discreetly capture you and the islands' beauties in a contemporary and candid style (no cheesy smiles, no poses !!). Come walk with me to discover Santorini's archaeological wonders, discover the blue domes, wander around traditional villages and taste its local food and wine. Do not hesitate to contact me for any curiosity, info or request you might have. I look forward to hearing from you and booking our special shore excursion or tour together. Travel is the one thing you buy that makes you richer!! - Licensed tour guide certified by the Greek ministry of Tourism - Certificate of Proficiency, Cambridge University - Italian Institute of Athens As a licensed guide, I have no restrictions.

Eugenia was an incredible guide. She assisted us in getting to the meeting place in a quick manner. She was so sweet, very informative. She adapted the tour for us and made it easier for me, as a handicapped person. She was patient. I really can't say enough things about the tour and Eugenia. Highly recommend!

We had two half-day tours with wonderful Eugenia. She was able to tweak our itineraries to make the most of our time together. Thus we visited the museum and Akritori on the first day (more cruise ships in port) - saved Oia for day 2. She picked us up earlier and drove us straight to Oia before crowds arrived. She expertly led us to prime photo spots and then a coffee break. We then went to Pyrgos and Mt. Elias - we saw everything! We ended at Venetsanos winery. Perfection! Eugenia=the best tour guide!

Eugenia was wonderful. We explored Santorini's past and present. She was a guide and a teacher. Ir was a day will we never forget.

Eugenia was so knowledgeable about the geological, social and historical aspects of Santorini. She showed us everything we wanted to see and took us to even more sites based on our interests. She also suggested local restaurants that were not just tourist stops including our favorite at the top of the castle in Pyrgos. We are coming back in the Fall and plan to book another tour with her then.

Eugenia was a thoughtful and conscientious guide. She shared her vast knowledge of Akrotiri, photo opportunities in Oia, and tips for visiting other areas the next day. We appreciated her picking us up from the port and thinking ahead to call our hotel to meet us at the end of the tour, as the help with the luggage and guidance to the hotel was so helpful. We highly recommend Eugenia for a private Santorini tour.

We had a wonderful day with Eugenia! Her enthusiasm for her job and knowledge of the history of the island was really cool. We learned a lot and had a lot of fun, especially ending at the winery. Eugenia also gave us a great recommendation for a restaurant and it was the best dinner we had in Santorini.

Your Santorini tour itinerary

- AKROTIRI is a 3600 years old city which was destroyed when a tremendous eruption took place in Santorini in the late 17th century BC. Private and public buildings perfectly preserved in the ash, with an indoor plumbing-sewage system , intact clay jars standing in the storerooms and beautiful wall paintings will impress even the most demanding visitor. Explore this unique civilization with your own private guide while walking under a roof which allows visitors to wander around comfortably even in hot summer days. -Oia is a place where you can spend a couple of hours, a day or a life time. It has the reputation of one of the most beautiful and romantic places in the world. Colorful cave houses , numerous blue domed churches and an incredible view over the caldera set the scenery for a perfect shooting. - A Winery where we can try the renowned wines of the island is the place to end our journey in Santorini.
