Know More about this tour


Begin your sightseeing adventure in the north of the island, at the scenic village of Oia: one of Santorini’s most visually striking locations, the village has long inspired artists with its beauty, and sits overlooking the island’s caldera.
Make a short stop in Firostefani to see the famous Blue Dome Church, the subject of so many Santorini postcards.
Santorini is also home to its own ancient ruins: the site of Akrotiri, an ancient Minoan village that was buried by the island’s colossal volcanic eruption. Don't miss the chance to see the incredible, well-preserved remnants of the settlement for yourself. (optional visit)
Head south to admire the Black beach. Enjoy an optional lunch at a seaside restaurant, such as fresh seafood with a Greek salad, on the beach.
Head to Profitis Ilias, which is the highest hill in Santorini. From its top (567 m) enjoy the panoramic view of the Aegean Sea. There, you will get to visit a Greek Orthodox chapel, listen to the sounds of Byzantine music and get a taste of their hand-made products. (optional visit)
Lastly, wind your tour down with an indulgent stop at a local winery. Santorini has produced its own wine since ancient times, and sampling its varietals is the perfect way to get a taste of the island’s history. (optional visit)
The above itinerary is provided as an example only. The sights and attractions provide an idea of things to do during your tour and can be adjusted on the day to suit your personal interests.Note that bespoke itineraries and custom additions to the tour are also available. Your tour will conclude when your private driver drops you off at your accommodation, cruise ship port, airport, or any other preferred location.

    My family and I enjoyed an amazing private tour of Santorini. Michael was our guide, and as expected, he knew the the right places to take us. He patiently waited for us as we made our way to Fira by cable car and drove us to sights that we wouldn’t have had the time to visit if we explored on our own. Our absolute highlight was lunch at an authentic Santorini restaurant which Michael recommended.

    Michael was phenomenal. Very fun and knowledgeable. If you want to get away and have a less touristy experience, this is for you. Incredible tour!

    Guide was excellent. He knew great locations and sites we would never have found on our own. We traveled the complete island not just the tourist spots in a very comfortable ride.. Oia village was the women's favorite for shopping.

    Theodore was a great guide and his English was easy to understand. It was extremely windy and cold the day we were there and he helped us find a local shop to get warmer clothes. He was very knowledgeable about the island and recommended a great local restaurant for lunch

    My husband and I had a 6 hour sightseeing private tour with Theodor. I was worried it was to long but it was too short and Theordore went over to show us even more sights. His attention to detail, excellent safe driving and information about the island was perfection. He took photos at every site,had access to private property, called ahead to make reservations for an amazing seaside lunch. Made reservations for wine tasting at a small private vineyard we were Interested in. Every detail was thought out. Thank you Theordore and Kallisti Tours for making our day on he island more than I could have dreamed of.

    This was absolutely a must do tour. It was awesome. Michael, our tour guide, did an exceptional job taking us to incredible sights and places to experience. He explained a great amount of history about Santorini. Extremely professional, kind, and humorous. Great driver as well. Unforgettable experience!!! Thanks Michael!!!

    Theodore picked us up from the top of the cable car at 10am as promised. He walked us through the winding streets to his Mercedes Sprinter van that accommodated the party of 6 very comfortably. We walked through the labyrinth of walkways of Thira overlooking the harbor with the white stucco buildings and brilliant Aegean blue rooftops. One unbelievable gorgeous view after another. From here we headed out to Oia to walk the streets there and do some shopping. Stopped for a coffee and bathroom break here as well. Again the views were amazing!Next we headed to the highest point on Santorini, where there is an old monastery. All along the way Theodore took lots of photos of our group and as couples. By now we were hungry and we went to Perissa for a bite to eat at Forty One. It’s located right on the beach. Food was very good. Not done yet. Off to see the lighthouse. More gorgeous views looking back to the harbor. A couple of more stops on our way back to our pick up point for photo ops! Theodore seems to know all the right places to stop. As an aside our trip was in early September and there were no lines for the cable car coming or going. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Theodore and would highly recommend this tour!

    Our driver/guide, Theodore was amazing! He was very personable and knowledgeable, sharing his culture and history made our visit to Santorini so memorable. We saw the entire island! I would highly recommend this tour with Theodore!!

    Theodore was our guide for the day. He was excellent! Couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was very informative, professional and personable. He knew all the perfect spots for taking pictures. I highly recommend this tour and hopefully you’ll get Theodore! If we’re ever back in Santorini we will definitely look him up and book another tour.

    Theo showed us all the great spots on the island and customized our tour to exactly what we wanted to see and do! It was a wonderful day!
