    100% recommend this tour to others.

    We only had one full day in Santorini and this tour with Anglofone Greek Tours fit the bill exactly! My partner and I were escorted and chauffeured around the island, hitting the tops photo spots, hearing about the history of the island as well as the Greek culture. Themis is very engaging, knowledgable and easy to listen to with his perfect English. As his own boss, he was able to curate our tour to fit our requirements as well as ensuring we had the right amount of food and drink stops such as for a freddo cappuccino with a view! And then at the end, Themis suggested the best fish restaurant at black beach in Perissa ending with a lovely dip in the sea and relaxing on a cabana bed on the beach. Do not hesitate to book this tour as Themis will make sure you have the best experience! He is very easy to communicate with and therefore you can make sure you get everything you want from the tour.

    Amazing private Santorini tour with water taxis

    Themis had great communication before I even booked the tour. He arranged for a private water taxi to take us to Oia to avoid the cable cars and donkeys. We had the best time seeing the villages, learning the history of Santorini, stopping at a beautiful monastery, having lunch and spending a couple of hours at the black sand beach. He arranged for a water taxi to get us back to Fira. My dad has a hard time walking long distances, but Themis helped him and was very accommodating. My kids are still talking about Themis and how he was their favorite tour guide. He was full of information and he kept us all entertained. Our day was perfect because of Themis- he customized the tour to what we wanted to do and see and to what my father was able to do. It was an amazing day, definitely a favorite for all of us!

    Amazing Santorini Private Tour

    Our Santorini tour with Themistoklis with Anglofone Greek Tours was one of our highlights of our 10 day honeymoon!! He did an amazing job not only showing us the island, but sharing his wealth of knowledge as well. We learned so much and had a great time! He even made accommodations for us when I realized last minute that I mixed up the tour dates and pulled together a tour for us with less than a days notice. Doing a private tour is so much better than the tour bus options. Highly recommend!!

    Absolutely the best Tour Guide in Greece:

    Themistoklis from AnglofoneGreekTours is by far the most entertaining, funny and intelligent tour guide I've ever met. He's charming, handsome and brilliant. Amazing to spend the day with. He knows Santorini and Greek history in general like a true local tour guide. My sister and I had an amazing time with him as he guided us throughout Santorini for the most unbelievable tour of our lives. He absolutely took care of every detail, from arranging the water Taxi to pick us up from the tender port of Fira and brought us to the port of Oia with class exactly on time like he promised then he took us to see all the highlights of Santorini like a local. He planned it perfect to skip the crowds and he knew exactly what he was doing. Instagram photo stops, quaint villages, beaches and the Monastery. We enjoyed every minute of it. He took all of our pictures at every stop and made sure we were always happy and comfortable to have the best time possible. We definitely recommend Themistoklis to anyone wanting a first-class tour of Santorini for the time of your life! Book him today!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your awesome review, i'm happy I made your time in Santorini memorable.

    Wonderful

    Themis was our outstanding and knowledgeable tour guide in Santorini .We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him. He arrived on time , organized our water taxi for meet up in Oia early am, we walked through the beautiful village + visited a cute local coffee bar for iced lattes. We then ventured to black sand beach and enjoyed a delicious seafood restaurant called Do Do’s on the beach, which also provided us w lounge chairs. He ended our tour in Fira. We never felt rushed ~ it made our time in Santorini so much more enjoyable with no hassle of the large group excursions that cruise ships offer. He really knew all about the history of the island + how to avoid the crowds in this heat . He was very accommodating with my sister and I. Thanks so much Themis !

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words, I'm glad I made Santorini memorable for you. I hope to tour you around Greece again in the future. God bless!

    Santorini skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Santorini skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English cost?

    +

    Prices start at $252 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 skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 31 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 skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English?

    +

    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 skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Santorini skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English?

    +

    Around 11 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Santorini skip the CableCar by WaterTaxi n TOUR in native English 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.

    +

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.
