Dario delivered a fabulous tour! We were ushered down less-populated paths and overlooks around the scenic city, getting in-depth explanations of each unique aspect we would never have discovered had we not been with him. We learned about the extensive history of the island, its architecture, and its wine ;) Many thanks to Dario and all his help to making the most of our short time on Santorini!Awesome Tour of Santorini!

Just ignore the written description. Contact Nikolaos and let him know whatever you want to see on the island. We avoided the busy tourist areas, saw some picturesque spots, and got to bust the black sand beach where the kids could play and get ice cream. We learned stuff and it was much more relaxing than trying to do the day on our own. Easy Santorini Experience
