Santorini was one of the highlights of our journey. we had a wonderful guide sitting with us in a Mercedes wagon as well as a driver, which is much better than a driver who is also the guide. She shared so much knowledge about the island, the people and the culture and took us into many townships into areas that could never be accessed by large busses. We walked through these towns, visited shops, saw many villas and hotels overlooking postcard views that is was way beyond our expectations. We also visited a vineyard and winery to see how differently grapes were grown in the country, then visited a black sand beach with limestone cliffs carved beautifully by Mother Nature. We also had lunch, a. very special Easter holiday lunch (lamb cooked over open fire) overlooking the a town and the Aegean Sea--it was so surreal. We found some beautiful and unique shops with ceramics and jewelry and overall had a fabulous time.
