Such knowledge and passion, you can tell Katerina loves what she does!
It was a private, just the three of us! Well, where do I start, Katerina was punctual and her vehicle was immaculate. She was so welcoming as soon as we met! She understood I had some walking issues and was very thoughtful and patient. My wife and I got on with her like a house on fire! So much laughter and repartee together! We had a wonderful lunch in a non touristy restaurant and her recommendation of wine was fabulous. On the knowledge side, wow, she knew the viticulture and industry very well and was full of interesting and educational information. Katerina’s knowledge of the island and secret spots for views just added to the experience, far from the madding crowd! Her classy thoughtfulness and absolute apparent enjoyment in what she does was epic! You had no sense of being rushed and her ‘think ahead’ skill timed us perfectly for the sunset over the Caldera at Santos Winery, ask Katerina to take you there! Very special! We got on so well we met for dinner the following night! I think my enthusiasm for Katerina and her passion explains it all!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and heartfelt review! Reading your words truly made us smile. We are especially happy that your private Santorini experience felt relaxed, personal, and filled with wonderful moments together. Sharing authentic local food, wine experiences, hidden viewpoints, and quieter corners of Santorini away from the crowds is exactly what we love to do. It means so much to know that you felt comfortable and well cared for throughout the day. We are delighted that the local wine recommendations, the spectacular sunset over the caldera at Santos Winery, and the special connections you made along the way became such memorable parts of your time on the island. Most of all, we loved the genuine connection we shared with you both. Thank you for your trust, your warmth, and your wonderful recommendation of Santorini Golden Tours. We hope to welcome you back to Santorini someday for more hidden gems, local discoveries, and plenty more laughter together. Roula & Katerina Santorini Golden Tours

Fun, fun, fun tour and photo-op!
We just finished our wine tour with Katerina and we had a fabulous time! She is very knowledgeable about the wine making process and wine, as well as personable and upbeat. It felt as though we’ve known her forever and we were out with our friend having a fun afternoon! She also took us to some sites near the blue domes where we got great photos of the sunset and scenery. This was a definite highlight of our trip to Santorini. Well done Santorini Golden Tours!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your beautiful review and for choosing Santorini Golden Tours for your wine experience. We’re truly happy you enjoyed discovering Santorini through its wines, local stories, and beautiful sunset spots around the island. Creating relaxed, authentic, and memorable wine experiences is exactly what we love to share with our guests. It means so much to us that the day felt personal, fun, and special just like spending time with friends while exploring the real side of Santorini. We would love to welcome you back again for more wine moments, sunsets, and unforgettable memories on the island. Roula & Katerina Santorini Golden Tours

Awesome!!!
Amazing Wine Experience in Santorini Our semi-private wine tasting with Roula was absolutely unforgettable. We visited Venetsanos Winery, with its breathtaking caldera views, and Domaine Sigalas, where we enjoyed some of the island’s finest wines. One of the highlights was walking through the vineyards, as Roula explained everything about Santorini’s unique volcanic soil, the basket-shaped vines, and the deep history behind this extraordinary terroir. As a certified sommelier, Roula guided us through every tasting with passion, clarity, and genuine love for her island. We were amazed to learn she creates wine lists for restaurants in both Santorini and Athens and her expertise truly showed. This was more than just a wine tour it was a journey into the heart of Santorini’s wine culture, led by someone you can truly trust. Highly recommended for anyone who wants more than just a sip!

The strength of Asyrtiko wine.
Katerina offered us an unforgettable experience and allowed us to take place throughout our day. We visited two wineries and learned so much about Asyrtiko wine.

Santorini Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.
How much does Santorini Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries cost?
+
Prices start at $286 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 Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries?
+
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 Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Santorini Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries?
+
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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Santorini Sunset Wine Tour – Semi-Private Tasting at 2 Wineries 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.
