Traveler reviews
2 verified traveler reviews for Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
Will not recommend this tour to anyone. Save money and go through another company.
Highly advised to not go through this tour. It was very misleading. I suggest going through another company. These guys are good for airport transfers and that's it. Here are the issues I had: 1) They mention white beach as a stop but once you get a driver they tell you that white beach is not accessible by car. You need a boat to reach it. 2) They mention free cancellation if it's above 24 hours from the tour. The issue here is that you cannot cancel from the website or app UNTIL you are assigned a driver and they only assign the driver less than 24 hours from the tour. I've emailed them over 24 hours from our tour time to cancel but i was unable get any response.
Response from the operator: We are exceptionally disappointed to receive the feedback you have shared following your experience with us. Please let me assure you our team set out to deliver experiences for every customer which are both welcoming and personalized in delivery, however it would seem we have not been able to do this in this instance.

Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.
How much does Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini cost?
+
Prices start at $97 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santorini usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Santorini is not rushed.
Is Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Santorini, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini?
+
Around 1 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 Santorini 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 Santorini and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini 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 Santorini 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 Santorini?
+
On Outty we rank every Santorini experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Premium Catamaran Cruise in Santorini including Oia, Private Santorini Tailor Made - Choice of the Guest!, Private Tailor-Made Santorini Land Tour with a Local Driver. 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 Santorini?
+
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 Santorini?
+
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 Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini?
+
Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Fuel and Tolls; Water; On-board WiFi; and Hotel or custom pickup and drop-off. Not included: Meals and beverages; Tips and Gratuities; and Licensed guides available to accompany you inside the attractions. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 247 listed pickup locations in and around Santorini. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini offered in?
+
It is offered in Greek and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Private 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour in Santorini if the weather is bad?
