We had a wonderful wine tour in Santorini! Apostolis set us up with three stops all different locations of the island from the beach to mountains. It was beautiful!!! Wine Tasting Santorini

A winery tour is a good option to when it comes to seeing Santorini if you are time poor. Apostolis' vehicle is comfortable and he is a friendly and good driver. At each of the wineries you get the opportunity to try their wines whilst also learning about the history and practices of each of the three wineries you visit. The first winery is a definite must, Estate Argyos, great wines, very attractive grounds and cellar door. The views from the last two wineries were amazing. I recommend Apostolis and this tourA great way to see Santorini

Unfortunately Apostolis was not available at the last minute but he organised for the lovely Anastasia to take his place. She was just wonderful and sorted the itinerary to exactly what we wanted. A craft beer brewery and 2 wineries. Just perfect. The donkey brewery was fantastic. We thought lunch was included and Anastasia very quickly contacted management and we were treated to a beautiful lunch at black Beach. Everyone was so accommodating and quick to reorganize transport when changes were needed. Thank you for such a lovely day Anastasia and the Mr Volcano team. XxGreat day out and about

We booked a tour with Apostolis for the Highlights and Gems of Santorini by Car for 8 people (family and friends). Unfortunately, Apostolis was ill on the day of our tour so he had one of his colleagues, Agnes lead the tour along with a driver. They met us at the top of the cable car as we were visiting Santorini via a cruise ship. This all day tour took us to both ends of the island, walking through Oia, visiting both Black Beaches, Red Beach, famous temples and the highest place on the island, a Monastery. As we were a larger group, it would have been helpful to have whisperers. I highly recommend this tour. We visited in late October so it was definitely less crowded and the weather was excellent.Excellent tour, Highly Recommend

Agnis is amazing. We had no real plans or ideas, but she took us to the most beautiful spots. It was easy & fun. Both the driver, Nick & Agni were so kind & easy going. Highly recommend going to Oia, Red beach, Black Beach, lunch at Forty one for the most delicious beach front meal and finished in Fira. Amazing Tour

Apostolis arrived for hotel pick up on time, and was very patient as we were 20 mins late due to time mix up on our part. It was notable, and very pleasing that we were given this time back at the end of the scheduled tour time allowing us to visit the monastery per Apostolis' suggestion. Highlight of the trip was to Oia which we were able to see at our own pace but with Apostilis there to quietly advise and inform. It was also great to visit Santo Wines for wine tasting which again we were able to do at our own pace while Apostolis waited in the car. A couple of other viewpoints added to the enjoyment of the half day. Overall Apostolis did a great job, very knowledgeable, drove really well, great clean and comfortable vehicle too, and was also very flexible to what what we wanted to do but also made recommendations. Would recommend. Great 4 hour highlights private tour

Adult family of four enjoyed this tour. Vehicle was more than just “a car”, rather a large comfortable 8 passenger van with AC. Big thanks to Apostolis for flexibility, still received full 6 hours, though 3 hours delayed by port disembarking the cruise ship. Could use a bit more narration, but we did not miss any sights. Would recommend. Good way to see the bulk of Santorini

Apostolis toured my family of 4 which included college age kids. We were there for just the day, having taken the ferry over from Crete. He listened to our interests, made suggestions with our timetable. We maximized our time to include what we wanted and appreciated Apostolis’ suggestions, which included brief lunch at a great spot on Black beach and driving to the high spot of the monastery with breathtaking views! Couldn’t have seen this much on our own. Thank you Apostolis!! 😊Personable, flexible

Loved everything about this day. Apostolis was friendly, flexible, and engaging. Full of interesting information and total knowledge of a VERY confusing island. Within five minutes, we were all glad to have had this guide for the island. To all the future guests, enjoy your time on Santorini and enjoy the company of the wonderful Apostolis.Genuinely amazing

I can not express how great our Santorini experience was with Apostolis! He was very professional, knowledgeable and showed my daughter and I all around Santorini and Black Beach. We both left with feeling like we made a new friend in the process. Incredible experience all around. Incredible!!

Apostolis, was our driver and guide for the day. My husband and my 2 young daughters loved how kind and informative Apostolis was. We drove the island seeing how locals live and hit all the beautiful photo stops and pretty views. Driving non small roads and winding hills is best done in a small car like his and not in a big tour bus(people on our cruise ship hates their buses). We saw the black beach and had an early dinner/late lunch at the Trendy 41-I Love Santorini (super cool!). We could have jumped in and swam or gone to the red beach but my little kids were tired and decided they wanted to go to shopping. Apostolis was very kind and even accompanied us shopping waiting like a gentleman!! great tour-Fantastic Day!! Best Day Ever in Santorini!!

We had a great day with Apostolis. He was very friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable, and fun. We felt like we were with a friend more than a guide. He took us to interesting places and made the experience so enjoyable for all of us. He even took us to his favorite local coffee shop! He let us spend as much time as we wanted to at each location. He told us which spots we could probably skip and which spots he thought were a must see.A fun day exploring!

Apostolis was a top quality tour guide for our family of four with two teenagers. He was very kind and offered excellent service, great facts and information but what we loved is that he also gave us some space to enjoy the time with great flexibility to do what we wanted to do and wasn’t a guide who talked the entire time. He provided a very fun, calm and balanced family day for us showing us the beauty and unique offerings of Santorini. Highly recommend!Top Quality Private Santorini Tour

We had an amazing time with Apostolis . Care of us all day and gave us a lot of flexibility in designing the day, but made it feel like hanging out with a friend rather than a formal tour. This made the experience even richer as he described the real life and Santorini and the history would highly recommend.Niko The driver was also very good and an extremely clean uncomfortable vanAmazing tour with apostolis

We had a great day touring Santorini with Aspostolis. He was very knowledgeable and very nice to be with for the day. He took us to so many beautiful viewing and photo spots! And Santorini has many!! Ge also shared lots of interesting things about life in Santorini. His car was very comfortable as well. Aspostolis also suggested a fantastic place for lunch and was very open to our requests. Our only issue was that we were uncertain about where to meet once we got off the cable car. However, once I got back to our ship I saw that it was my mistake. He had told me he would meet us at the cable car but I did not check. He was very flexible though and we quickly sorted it out via text. He was very responsive. We really enjoyed our day!!A great experience!

Apostolis was great! He tailored the tour to my interests but added recommendations that I enjoyed. I would have gotten maybe half the locations and had to fight through crowds if I had done a standard tour through another agency. Would highly recommend.Christie

We had a lovely tour with Apostolis, (me and my husband) he is very knowledgeable about the island, friendly and empathetic. He took us to the best panoramic views from Santorini, some very beautiful churches and a lot of hidden gems, places we would not have otherwise seen. We were in a cruise, Santorini is quite crowded but Apostolis made our experience unique. If you want to relax in Santorini, make plenty of photos and learn about the history this is an excellent way to do it. Amazing!!!

We had a limited amount of time to see Santorini and hired Apostolis to show us around the island. We saw and learned so much more than we ever expected in a half day tour. He took us to all the main spots for shopping and pictures but also surprised us with hidden gems along the way; from churches hidden in cliffs to amazing wineries. The communication beforehand was superb and his historical knowledge of the area was a great addition to the tour. He is an amazing tour guide and we strongly recommend Apostolis for anyone visiting Santorini.Amazing private tour with Apostolis

Apostolis was very kind. Santorini is an island where it is not so easy to get around, so it was very good and comfortable to have Apostolis with his car. He offered to customize the trip to our interests, but we didn´t visit all the places that were included in the tour, such as Fira and Megalochori. We loved that he showed us the hidden gems of Santorini and offered to take photos of us. I wish he knew a little more history or interesting facts.Comfortable experience!
