Kostas is the best tour guide!

Our private tour of Santorini with Kostas was FABULOUS! Kostas knew when to take us to areas when they weren’t crowded! We got great photos. He was very willing to take pictures and he was good at it! He was very energetic and spoke very good English! Santorini was beautiful. If you are looking for a tour in Santorini, Kostas is the best tour guide!

A wonderful experience

This was my second time in Santorini and also the second time I have been on a tour with Kostas. Both times were enjoyable and informative. He was responsive to our requests and provided excellent suggestions.

Seeing Santorini through the Eyes of Local Expert

Our Santorini and Akrotiri tour with Kostas was incredible. He shared the island’s history and culture in such an engaging way, with stories only a local could tell. He’s funny, insightful, and reminded me of a Greek Rick Steves—highly recommend him!

Great tour guide.

Great communication before the tour. It was so nice to have a private tour that was tailored to our preferences. Kostas is very knowledgeable. The ruins are stunning but the highlight for me was our stop at a microgreen and flower farm for a leisurely lunch.

Fantastic!

Excellent from start to finish!! Kostas was so informative and made sure that we saw as much as possible. His knowledge is amazing and my husband and I had a fantastic day with him. He brought us to a beautiful, and delicious, restaurant by the sea as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and highly, highly recommend Kostas!

Most valuable guided tour combing fun, walking while learning

Kostas and Nicoletta are true professionals and made our tour of Santorini valuable and thoroughly easy. As we drove from picturesque Oia to historic Akrotiri and with needed reassurance for the worthwhile rocky climb to view Red Beach, we stopped at incredible spots for photos, Kostas (who takes great photos!) taught and entertained, as we learned much about what we were experiencing. Kostas speaks perfect English while sharing his energetic personality and deep knowledge of this enchanted island. The visit to Akrotiri added greatly to our understanding of this unique archeological excavation. Winding up our sunset tour at a winery was the perfect setting for the most beautiful vacation photograph!
