It was great, however I booked and Spanish tour and no more than 12 hours before, they notified me that it was only on English.

Lydia was amazing and has given us plenty of tips on how to enjoy our trip more. She was very caring. Would recommend the tour. Just be aware it could get very crowded but still worth it for a once in a lifetime experience.

We would highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Santorini. As we came for a week, we didn't mind that it was a full day trip. our guide Christina was amazing very informative and friendly. We saw some amazing sights you wouldn't come across on your own and they were beautiful. Highlight being the Oia sunset but all parts of the day were fantastic. Just be sure you have plenty of water with you on a hot day as you'll need it!
