5.00Small group tour. Ours was 8 people in total. 3 differing vineyards with snacks and tastings. Led by a very knowledgeable and experienced lady called Marina who was excellent and informative regarding the wine production at the 3 very different producers. Also managed to enjoy the beautiful Santorini sunset at our last venue as our tour was the evening one. Highly recommend it.
Great Experience

5.00This tour was amazing! Davide was very knowledgeable about wine as well as the island.
Nice tasting but the guide pulled down the whole

4.00The hotel was very clean and comfortable. Large portions of cheese and tapas with the wine, so we did not have to eat any dinner afterwards. Even generous glasses of wine. However, our guide was affected by the heat and tired, which he mentioned several times, which slowed down the experience somewhat. However, he fought on well, volunteered as a photographer and told interesting facts about the wines. Overall a good wine tasting, but could have been even better with a guide who was in his best mood.
The best tour guide

5.00Elena was an excellent and very fun guide. We had a great group of people on the tour which with the small group let us get to know everyone. We tried some tasty wines accompanied by a selection of cheeses. We did the sunset option which was quite pretty, though up to personal preference as to where you want to see the sunset from as the island has many spectacular views.

5.00Kristine was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent host! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our Santorini wine tour and even bought two bottles of wine to take home with us. Yamas!
Over priced but excellent host.

3.00We found the experience over priced. The host, Eleanor, was excellent, but what cost over £600 for 4 of us was very much over priced. We were collected from our villa in a 9 seater mini bus. 2 couples were already in the bus so we could not sit together. In each of the vineyards, we sampled 4 different wines. What would have been far more preferential would have been sampling 3 and then given a full glass of the wine enjoyed most by each individual. The final vineyard area we were seated was with other parties. It was that loud that we could not hear our host - more like a stag do. Overall, disappointing for the cost. A value for money price would have been €75 per person.
Great tour of some very...
