The best tour guide in Santorini
I want to write a review for Junior (Jorgito) Giorgio, ( my daughter recommend him to me) and he was our guide in Santorini, and honestly I don't know where to begin complimenting him, He wasn't just a guide; he was an absolute gem. From the moment we met him at the Santorini Port , it was clear he was trying that we have the best possible experience. He surprised us with water, coffee, and even on the way I like a magnet for my refrigerator and he bough it for me that is a gesture that truly went above and beyond. Junior was incredibly kind and went out of his way to please us in every single way. His was not only kind, with a lot of patience and knowledge about Santorini that we get impressed, and we felt like everyone on the street knew him, and greeted him like an old friend which was so cool to see. He even stopped to help other tourists with their photos, not only us. I've been on many tours, but I've never encountered a guide as thoughtful, knowledgeable, and universally beloved as Junior. He truly made our Santorini trip unforgettable. Junior is truly one of a kind – a guide who treats you like family and makes your experience truly special …I recommend him with my eyes closed
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and kind words about Junior (Jorgito) Giorgio. We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that he made your Santorini experience so special and memorable! Junior truly embodies the spirit of hospitality we aim to provide, and we’re lucky to have him as part of our team. Your appreciation means the world to us – and I’m sure he’ll be touched to hear how much you valued his kindness, thoughtfulness, and dedication. We hope to welcome you back on another tour soon – maybe with Junior again! Until then, thank you for trusting us and for sharing your experience. Warm regards, Dimitra

Patty and Viator made our trip extra special
Patty was an amazing help with scheduling and suggestions. It was so nice to have every pick up and drop-off taken care of and not have any worries about getting from place to place. We had wonderful guides on our excursions and I will absolutely use this company again.

Total Scam, stay away!
Complete waste of a lot of money, please stay away from this. As Michael noted in another review, they simply book flights, hotels, and taxes under your name, charging you double the actual price of the activity. In our case, it was even worse, as they attacked us and said it was our fault we did not feel comfortable getting on another flight and refused to refund anything, as they got us to the airport 60 min before departure to an overbooked flight. Again, stay away from this if you are looking for a private tour, book it if you want to pay double someone to book activities online for you, and will leave you hanging if you have any issues along the way.
Response from the operator: Dear Vitor, It is indeed peculiar that despite the double booking made by "Sky Express" and the compensation offered by the airline, which you received, you chose not to travel and declined the opportunity to board the subsequent flight departing just two hours later. Your decision to cancel the trip to Mykonos and Santorini seems to be based on the fact that you would have had to depart two hours later than originally planned. While the specific personal reasons behind this decision remain unclear, it appears that you took the initiative to cancel the reservation yourself, fully aware that you would not be eligible for a refund. As for the option of a private service, it is important to understand that it caters to individuals who seek a personalized travel experience with the support of a dedicated assistant managing all their reservations. Naturally, such a service incurs a cost, as the expertise and time of the personal assistant are valuable resources that require payment Best regards

3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades cost?
+
Prices start at $1,254 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 3 Day Private Tour in Santorini & Mykonos at the Best of Cyclades?

Included: Fast ferry tickets from Piraeus → Mykonos → Santorini → Piraeus; Private transfers to and from the port/hotel on each island; Breakfast; and 2 Nights accommodation. Not included: Optional Tours (available with extra cost); Hotel city tax; and Gratuites (optional). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
