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

An excellent tour with Aphrodite. It was perfect for us, three friends on a short break away, we experienced everything we wanted to. Would definitely recommend Aphrodite, she is very knowledgeable, friendly and personable and made the whole experience personal to us and it was fun. She was also a great photographer so we have lots of happy memories of our time in Santorini. Thank you Aphrodite Excellent tour

We were so pleased and impressed with Aphrodite's knowledge of the island, greek culture and history. She took personal time with us to answer questions, gave us options and choices so that we really felt like the tour was personal to us. I would highly recommend her as a guide on your next trip to Santorini.Aphrodite ...knows her island!

The whole day was exceptional. We had a late meeting due to tender from ship and cable car being slow but George waited and was very understanding. Although booking was with Apostolis, George turned up with driver Nick (Mr Volcano) They were both polite, knowledgeable and experienced, avoiding traffic jams and crowds. We felt extremely safe, comfortable & relaxed. They showed us places we would never have seen or otherwise would have been crowded out. They work hard at providing a professional service and try their hardest to accommodate and make you feel relaxed. We had a great day chatting with George who has great knowledge on many subjects for one so young. Don’t hesitate to book with them, I doubt you will find a better guided experience with 2 such real nice guys. Good luck with your marriage George, no doubt the organisation will be exceptional & original Pete&KarenExcellent

A wonderful experience. If you want to beat the crowded streets get a little gistory along the way and have wonderful photos to take home with you I highly recommend taking a ride with Aphrodite. She was a friendly guide with a lot of great conversation. Absolutely Spectacular

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!

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

Loved our guide! She was so patient with our young kids and liked their questions. Was so glad we used our own guide instead of a larger group session as it cut down on the wait lines for all the attractions and best picture spots. She was able to drive us quickly around the whole island without feeling like we missed anything. Was a great conversationalist and appreciated the personalization of the tour. Highly recommend!fantastic

This was an amazing tour!! Kostas, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing! So very knowledgeable! And so very personable and funny! He taught us so much history, but also kept us laughing the entire day. He was so kind and generous with his time. The highlights were awesome, many picture taking opportunities. He took us to an amazing restaurant by the black sand beach, and was willing to wait for us and give us extra time to enjoy the meal and the water! This experience was definitely worth the price and I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Santorini! Also, I would like to comment that he was always so very quickly responsive to any of my messages. And he was also very helpful and helping me navigate the process of getting off of our cruise ship and Getting tender tickets. Little details that I had no idea about but he was so very helpful in all of these things. I greatly appreciate you Kostas! Thank you for such an amazing experience!

My family of 5 spent an amazing day touring the island of Santorini with Aphrodite. She punctually arrived in an air conditioned mini van and showed us all of the main attractions. From Fira to OIA, to spectacular black sand beaches, she was the perfect tour guide! Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable about Greek history and culture, she was patient and flexible. We can’t say enough about our fabulous time with her. She made our time in Santorini unforgettable! Thank you Aphrodite!!APHRODITE IS INCREDIBLE!!

Aphrodite was amazing!! So kind, she knew local history and was so awesome to shoot pictures for us and find all the spots to avoid crowds! She helped us nail all the locations for the most iconic Santorini spots in Fira, Ouia and more! Having her local feel was a gift! She didn’t rush us at all and took us all over the island. We would never be able to do all that she did in 3.5 hours! Recommend her all day!!Insider IG secrets

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!

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

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
