During the beautiful weather of May, we enjoyed both a small group sunset walking tour with tastings and drinks and a private half-day tour of Santorini with our guide, Apostolos. We went on the small group tour on our first evening and it was a great introduction to the island. Be ready to walk and bring a camera or a smartphone because you will see some fantastic views. We also enjoyed getting to know the other members of our group from other parts of the world. The drinks and food choices were representatives of Greece and our guide was able to weave history, culture, and political intrigue into our tour. That tour covers Imerovergli, Firostehpani, and Fira. The private half-day tour the next day included numerous spots and shopping in Oia, Pyrgos, and Aktorini (with a guided tour with an archeologist) and we finished with a wine tasting. Apostolos is personable and knowledgeable and we felt like we were visiting the island with a friend. We highly recommend him and both of these tours.
