Amazing time with Sofia! She is so knowledgeable about Santorini and very fun to be with! It was like being with an old friend. She was determined to make the most of my day with her. The food she suggested, the shops and even the order of the sight seeing was all just perfect. The best day for me in all of Greece to feel like a Greek was today in Santorini with Sofie. Book this tour and don’t miss this amazing opportunity.

Sophia is an engaging lady with a great deal of knowledge about Santorini. We felt terrible that we could not spend more time with her but since we didn't book her through the cruise ship, we lost hour and 15 minutes trying to disembark. If you arrive at 0800, schedule a 1030 tour. The sights, food and wine were beyond expectations.

Sofia gave us an amazing tour of the island - some spectacular view spots - 'secret treasures' on the island and a fabulous day. Loved the visit to Oia - the Monestary - wine tasting and an awesome lunch at a hidden gem! Thanks again for a wonderful day!!
