We booked a private tour as had teenagers and also an autistic son who would not have coped with an organised public tour. From the initial contact with Kallisti Private Tours we had every confidence we had made a good choice. Their communication was efficient throughout. Theodore was friendly and discussed with us what we would like to see, planning a personalised tour with us before we started the day. He took us to places we would never have discovered on our own. His knowledge of Santorini and its history was second to none and we could spend as much or little time in the comfortable air conditioned vehicle as required. Cold bottled water was provided all day. The views he showed us were stunning and there were plenty of photo opportunities and toilet breaks as required. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this Tour in order to see the entire island with a good English speaking guide with so much local, geographical and historical knowledge. Real quality.

Had a great trip. The food served was excellent for this type of trip. Barbecued prawns and Greek salad plus a few extra options. The views on the trip were excellent and the crew were amazing. Our original trip was cancelled due to some thunderstorms but the team helped us fit the trip in before our flight which was hugely appreciated and the kind of customer service which makes it an easy trip to recommend.

We had the best day on the daytime semi private cruise. Unbelievably due to the current Covid situation there was just us and one other couple on board. Christina and the crew were all great and couldn’t do enough for us. Free flowing beer, wine and soft drinks. Appetisers served up before the most amazing lunch. Would highly recommend and Christina you did a truly fantastic job.

I traveled to Athens in December 2020. During that time Greece was under strict restrictions due to the covid-19 pandemic. I booked the transfer in early December and they were very responsive to all my queries regarding my trip and kept me posted up to the last minute. I had a late night arrival but Christos, the driver was there on time with a warm welcome. The company vehicle was extremely clean,fully equipped with sanitizer and disinfectant wipes and masks (if needed). All the preventive measures were taken. On the way to Athens, Christos gave me a detailed update on the measures and the movement restrictions imposed by that time and thoroughly explained the procedure to issue permits (with SMS) to go out. I book the transfer back to the airport with Marryposa. Cannot thank them enough for their service and hopefully next time will be on their base, on Santorini island, for a full tour! Totally recommended for all travelers arriving to Athens and need a transfer!

We were recommended by some close friends who had visited Santorini before, to join the Classic Santorini Panorama private tour, as we were interested in visiting the most worthseeing spots of the island while being professionally guided. The 6 hour sunset tour we chose, started at noon by picking us up with a luxury van from our hotel. Our private guide, Michael, was a friendly handsome man, who really took very special care of us from the very first moment! His knowledge about the island and the history of each of the places we visited were obvious very soon, as much as the professionalism of the whole tour. We had an amazing time at the well known Black beach were we swam and enjoyed a traditional meal, and then at the unique and really impressive Red beach. Guided through the narrow streets of the picturesque villages of Megalochori and Pyrgos, and the monastery of Profitis Ilias at the top of the cliff with the spectacular views, was an experience that we couldn't get enough! Visiting Oia as the final destination of the tour at the sunset time, left us breathless, as it was much more than anything we had heard about! The whole tour was so comfortable and flexible, really respectful to our needs, that gave us a great experience of our vacation in Santorini island.
