What guests say
★★★★★
Billy was by far the best tour guide we’ve had. … We saw beautiful Oia, churches, beaches, cliff side winery with a view of the caldera, highest point in Santorini, and the list goes on. All while still making stops for us for restroom breaks and making sure we made it back to cruise ship perfectly on time to see sunset.

Highlights
- A private route through Santorini’s most photogenic places
- Your photographer is a local guide who knows the island and its history
- 30 color-corrected photos of your day, delivered within 25 days

What to expect
You decide where to go. We suggest starting in Oia, on the cliffs above the caldera, with photos at the famous windmill or with the caldera behind you. Then on to Imerovigli, a classic village of white churches and blue domes.
Next is Profitis Ilias Monastery, on the island’s highest point, with views in every direction. It is one of the best places on the island for photos.
You can also add a winery, or Red Beach or the Black Beach for a closer look at the Aegean. At the end of the tour we take you back to your meeting point.

Nik arranged for a beer/wine tasting tour followed by a home cooked dinner from a local small holder. … Chris was very knowledgeable about the wines but surpassed himself with his culinary knowledge and skills.

Before we left I knew that we wanted a more personal and tailored tour to explore Santorini than the cruise ship was offering. … it was a brilliant tour and possibly the best one we took during the week.
