Amazing tour guide and tour. Was very knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond his duties.
Santorini is a unique and beautiful island. Our private tour with Ted enabled us to have an inclusive look at Santorini. We were able to visit all of our priorities, red sand beach, black sand beach, Oia, Fira, and experience wine tasting and vineyards. Ted was so informative about the current island and the history of the island evolution. He was flexible and recommended an incredible winery for tasting and lunch. One of the most memorable and special days for my family to share together.
My husband and I recently went on a Mediterranean cruise, and Santorini was one of the places I was most excited about. We decided to get a private driver/guide for the day am I so happy we did! Marcos met us in Fira and away we went! We literally covered one tip of the island to the other, as well as the highest and lowest points, and everything in-between! Marcos was knowledgeable about the island and had some fun stories to tell along the way. He also offered to take pictures of us, and recommended an amazing bakery and restaurant as well! I highly recommend choosing this excursion and Marcos if you only have 1 day on this beautiful island, you wont regret it!
Great tour with Theodore. He was knowledgeable, friendly and very nice. We got to see all of Santorini with Theodore and it was a great day with lots of amazing pictures that he helped us take. He gave us lots of good info and showed us places that we would never have found on our own. Finally, he brought us to a restaurant for lunch which was absolutely the best meal we had in Santorini.
Excellent tour. Very informative and listens to what your requirements are. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent trip ... Wonderful Experience. And Theodore from Kallisti Private Tours made it possible for us. Right from the pickup from Fira not to mention that Theo kept our request for short notice changes till the end of the trip, we had a homely, friendly and thoroughly knowledgeable guide. Been to all over the island Santorini with Theo, to places we liked to see Theo haa the magic of reading our minds :- and stop for photo shots and wanted to stay as much time as we wanted... no rush no pushing... just perfect. And finally ... he showed us in the end the hidden pockets of Santorini... a secret I will not tell you. For this you need to to get Theo via Kallisti Tour... just contact him ...via Viator I would
