    Superb!!

    Dimitris was an amazing tour guide. He brought us to all the best places around the island of Santorini. Dimitris is very knowledgeable about the island, he is friendly and knows all the best places to eat and sightsee. Dimitris brought me and my girlfriend to the most picturesque backdrops and landscapes for picture taking. He brought us to the best restaurants comparable to Michelin quality. Dimitris chauffeured us around the island in a comfortable air conditioned Mercedes van stocked with cold water bottles. Dimitris made sure we were comfortable and safe the entire time we were with him. He is the nicest man and I look forward to coming back to Santorini and having Dimitris show me around again. He is the best!!

    Best experience in Santorini

    Dimitris was the first Greek who gave us an amazing experience in Greece. The first time we meet him, he was very kind and suggested us what to do in Santorini. We did everything he said and it was the best! We totally recommend his services, he is the best in Santorini!

    A PERFECT guide.

    A wonderful tour. Our guide was very professional, spoke very good English and we had a great time. He shared so much of his beautiful island with us and took group pictures at all the best spots.

    Amazing service and they take care of everything!

    My experience with Get Around Santorini was amazing from the booking process; arranging a detailed tour through the streets of Oia stopping at all the attractions. We made a stop at the Wine and Art Museum, to the Red and Black Beaches of Santorini. My driver, tour guide and honorary family member Demetrius was knowledgeable about the area, very professional and is a talented photographer. For all my solo travellers out there, book with this group, sit back and enjoy!

    The best in Santorini!!!!

    Dimitris was absolutely PHENOMENAL. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide, seriously. He was so extremely kind and patient considering we were traveling with my father in law who is sick and has a hard time being on his feet for extended periods. Dimitris even went as far as assisting him with walking and would wait behind with him so the rest of the family could see as much as we could. He took us to local spots that weren’t as crowded with many tourists. He also took us to his favorite local restaurant that truly was the highlight of our entire trip. It was a small family owned business and Dimitris surprised us with ordering us some things off the menu that he felt we needed to try. We just loved him and cannot stop talking about how lucky we got by finding him. We have made a true friend in Greece, someone we will absolutely recommend to all our friends back home should they ever decide to visit Santorini. THANK YOU DIMITRIS, you are such a lovely gentleman and we wish you lots of success and happiness!!!

    Response from the operator: Dear melissacK3317XG, Thank you for choosing Get Around Santorini and for taking the time to share your amazing experience on TripAdvisor. It is wonderful to read that you enjoyed your time, and I am pleased I exceeded your expectations with the tour. May I also thank you for highly recommending us and its an honor to consider me as a friend! Wishing the best to your lovely family and I really hope to have the chance to welcome you back soon! Best Regards, Dimitris

    Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.

    How much does Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini cost?

    +

    Prices start at $206 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 Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Santorini Private Tour - Colors of 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 Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini?

    +

    Around 2 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Santorini Private Tour - Colors of 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 Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; On-board WiFi; Flexibility to tailor the itinerary with the assistance of your guide; and All Fees and Taxes. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 500 listed pickup locations in and around Santorini. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +

    +

    What happens to Santorini Private Tour - Colors of Santorini if the weather is bad?
