Overview of your Santorini tour
Follow me on this tour and you will the opportunity to discover the beauty and history of this amazing island. My goal is to acquaint you with my island, to show you Santorini from a local perspective, to share interesting information, and entertain you as I tell you my stories about every place we visit during the day. We'll see the popular towns of Santorini like Oia and Fira, that every visitor comes for but we'll also visit traditional villages and learn interesting information about the history and local culture.

My family took the Santorini full day tour with Aris in June 2016. This was an excellent tour, Aris literally took us to all the places we wanted to see, he was knowledgeable, he communicated his love for the island and the various different views around the island were amazing. He made stops for amazing Greek Pastries upon our request. We got fantastic pictures of the blue domes in Oia, he guided us around, our stops were never rushed. I would highly recommend Aris for a fantastic day in Santorini

What can i possibly say other than Aris was absolutely amazing. Family of 5 and he remembered everyone’s name as well as engaged with all. His vehicle was super roomy and well air conditioned. Honestly the best part is we felt like we were hanging out with a friend for this time in his homeland. Because that’s exactly what it was. Simply fantastic.

We were so happy Ari’s was with us for our full day Santorini tour. We especially appreciated how we made a early quick stop to the blue domed village, took our photos, but then toured the rest of the island that many visitors never see. had lunch at a seaside Café, drove up to the highest point of the island where you could see for miles, enjoyed his relaxed demeanor, and his sense of humor.

Aris was an absolute fantastic guide. The whole family thought he was brilliant. His knowledge and passion for Santorini shone through. I can not recommend him highly enough. Definitely the highlight of our cruise.
Heather P.United States
Our family of 6 had a fantastic time with Aris on a full day tour of Santorini. Aris is so friendly and welcoming. His passion for the island and Greek history and culture really shined through all day, leaving us captivated at all times. He knows all the little tricks to making the very most of the port stop— like accessing private areas for photos or timing strategies to avoid crowds. We highly recommend him; don’t attempt to do Santorini without him! Worth every euro!
Your Santorini tour itinerary
Oia : The prettiest and most popular town where the most famous blue dome is. After taking your postcard there we can stroll through the town or you can have a cool drink admiring the cliff side view. Prophet Elias monastery : Doesn't take a lot to drive to the highest peak of the island where the greek monastery is located. Visit part of the monastery founded in 1711 and take memorable pictures from the top. Megalochori : A quaint village that dates back to the 17th century. Time to get away from the crowds and walk through this small quiet village and feel the local way of life. Black and Red Beach : Enjoy the Aegean sea and try Greek food at a seaside restaurant. Optional: Santorini is world known for its wines so we can drive to one of the best wineries and taste different volcanic wines.
