Great service and great guide
We used their services throughout our trip. Ioannis was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable and overall just improved all of our experiences. The activities felt very personalised and they ensured everything went smoothly at each step. Would 100% recommend

Perfect Santorini Experience from Start to Finish
Our trip in Santorini was made so easy and stress-free because of the excellent service given to us by John. From our airport pick-up to our one-day tour around the island and hitel pick up to the airport, everything was organised perfectly. We learned so much about the history and culture of the island, which made the experience even more meaningful and enjoyable. Because of his professionalism and kindness, we were able to relax fully and truly appreciate the beauty of Santorini. Special mention as well to Giannis and Constantine for their warm hospitality, friendliness, and outstanding service throughout our stay. They truly made our experience even more memorable. Highly recommended service — we honestly couldn’t have asked for more.

Fantastic Santorini
If you want an enjoyable, no rush tour of Santorini, you have to ride with Konstantinos. It was one beautiful "secret place" after another. There was no bad picture in our shots that day. Konstantinos is accommodating, polite and customer oriented. Hello from the 3 crazy ladies!
via Tripadvisor
Konstantine the Best
Konstantinos is the best tour guide & company, he gave us a private tour with his large very comfortable vehicle provided us with maps of Santorini Greece which we loved and is our keepsakes now for future visits. Price was affordable. He was very accommodating taking us to see as many amazing places as possible within proximity to each other, felt within the 4 hours we had from the cruise we got to see a lot of hidden gems of the island. He was considerate to all of our needs and was patient with our Instagram photo taking. Professional driver for all the hills and curves we saw. We learned a lot of Greek words and knowledge about the island to want to return again. traveled with my husband and sister and we all highly recommend him, his vibe, and his services. If you're ever in New York it would be our pleasure to show you around.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Sightseeing Tour in Santorini: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.
How much does Private Sightseeing Tour in Santorini cost?
+
Prices start at $218 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 Sightseeing Tour in Santorini take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Sightseeing Tour in Santorini worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 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 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 Sightseeing Tour in Santorini suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Sightseeing Tour in Santorini?
+
Around 4 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 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 Classic Santorini Panorama: Visit Top Destinations. 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.
