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.

Overview of your Santorini tour

The village of Oia, a must-see landmark of Santorini, is a place where one can spend a couple of hours, a day or a life. The charm of this world famous settlement lies in its colourful cave houses, the imposing mansions of the captains of the sea and its numerous blue domed churches perched on the cliffs, overlooking the caldera. Let's explore this unique place and get photographed in front of the blue domes before we set our way to the other side of the island to explore the hidden gems of Megalochori and Emporio. Our tour includes a visit to the beach of Vlychada to admire the beauty of nature and a scenic drive to the top of the Prophetes Elias mountain to enjoy a 360 decrees view over the entire island. Note:During the tour, we can be accompanied by our own professional photographer who will capture you and the beauties of Santorini, with an extra charge. Please contact me for any further information

Eugenia was excellent. Well planned trip, very informative, very good English and enjoyable to spend the half day with. Would definitely recommend her to others. She was via easy to communicate with and responsive to our needs. She was also very patient with us in adapting the trip some due to some late scheduling changes by us. All and all highly recommend her.

Eugenia was our favorite tour guide. Spending the day with her felt more like hanging out with a friend who was knowledgeable, funny, and thorough; she showed us as much as possible during our tour. She clearly loves Santorini and was gracious, patient, and accommodating. If you are lucky enough to book her, I promise you will enjoy it!

I am a fan. Eugenia has her roots in Santorini, it shows her passion for the island and her country is contagious and a great addition to the visited sights and stories she shares. I would like to recommend Eugenia for your trips and exploration of Santorini.

Very knowledgeable and informative. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Was great at pacing the tour to suit the varied needs of our group. Her English is excellent and it was a joy to spend time with her to learn about Santorini.

Eugenia is an excellent tour guide! She showed us parts of Santorini that we didn't even know were there. She drove us all over the island, explaining how it was formed. She took us to villages where the locals live, in addition to walking with us through the more touristy parts of Santorini (like Oia) and explaining the history of those areas. She was patient with us. She made sure we were fed. She tailored the tour to fit our needs. I cannot recommend her enough!

Honestly: If you wish to discover Santorini and get to know more about its stunning history as well as of its little villages off the beaten tracks, you really should go explore with Eugenia. She's the perfect guide and probably the loveliest person there is amongst the guide on this island. She'll provide you not only with lots of knowledge but also with stories of her own family-history that dates back to the time when Santorini was still an excluded island with no tourists at all. Big recommendation!!

Your Santorini tour itinerary

- OIA! No words can describe the beauty of this place. Not even a picture can capture its magnificence . Let's get around there and admire the beauty of nature but also the inventiveness of humans taking advantage of every square meter on the cliffs for building a cave house. Living on Santorini, a volcanic island, you definitely live on the edge and you can only seize the day. - Megalochori on the south side gives you a full local experience. Cozy tavernas around the main square where the locals gather every afternoon, old wineries and charming houses set the perfect scenery for discovering the original side of the island. - Emporio , a medieval castle itself, still maintains memories of the past when pirates were attacking the island. -The beach of Vlychada with its overwhelming carved cliffs, although resembling a sculptor's work , in fact come from a natural process owed to the volcano and the elements of nature. - The peak of the mount Prophetes Elias reveals the beauty of Santorini before your eyes
