Come as strangers, leave as family friends!! Hello! I'm Petros, born in Athens. Despite studying Mechanical Engineering in London, my love for the sea and travel brought me to the enchanting Santorini in 2019. Since then, I've conducted over 1543 private tours. My aim is to turn my passion for the sea and the island's history into a way of life. I strive to create unforgettable experiences and build lasting friendships with my new friends. My concept is to live with you the unique happiness of holidays and to introduce to you the whole island of Santorini, from the traditional villages with the blue domes to the famous red and black beaches and from the caldera sunsets to the great traditional vineyards and wineries! I'll showcase the island based on my perspective, and together, we can tailor a fully customized tour to match your preferences, offering experiences like sailing, scuba diving, and visits to traditional villages. -Tour Operator License. -Certified Professional Driver. -Certified English Speaker. -Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of South Bank in England, UK. -Speed Boat Operator License. -Sailing Βoat Οperator's License. -Open Water Diver. -Degree Merchant Marine School of Rescue & Fire: School of Merchant Marine School of Rescue & Fire I don't have a license to offer guided tours within museums.
