The 10 Best Walking Tours in Cyclades, South Aegean
The Cyclades is a group of Greek islands with beautiful, white sandy beaches, rugged mountains and lush valleys. Glamorous Santorini and Mykonos attract the jetset, while lesser-known isles, such as Milos and Naxos, are the perfect places for beach lovers. Ruins, including the 11th-century Dorian settlement and volcanic ash-preserved Ancient Akrotiri in Santorini, amaze those with a bent for ancient history. Sifnos' cuisine wins it admirers. Hydrofoils, ferries and catamarans connect the islands.

We will confess that we did not take the tour, we were on a cruise and did not attempt to schedule any outside activities. That said, we were in a restaurant on two separate days when Aristotle brought in a group and ordered wine and tomato fritters for them. He was charming and knowledgeable so we asked for his card, if/when we return, we will look him up and book a tour. His web site offers very detailed information for those wanting to gauge whether this tour is for them.

Elias was our assigned photographer he understood our needs perfectly and worked with us very well. He took the most amazing pictures of my daughter. Even though I did not want my own picture taken he also convinced me of that. Many locations are closed in Morocco currently because of covid but we found many beautiful alternate locations instead. There is so much beauty in Marrakech you will definitely want to document it with this group. Pictures were delivered to us two days later while we were still on vacation. I asked for a few edits and the group was very cooperative in providing them.

we booked this for the black sand beach stop, Akrotiri, winery and monastery. the view stops at the beginning were actually right next to our hotel so we had the privelige to those views on our stay. the big coach bus is PACKED when you are all on and the island is windy, highly recommend bringing medicine if you get nauseous easily. the guides were sweet and kind and helped navigate large groups well. i am grateful for them taking us around their island. we passed on the last Oia stop as our hotel sunset view was just as good if not BETTER for the lack of people. this coach bus tour is a great way to view the island in a short period and to see the big sites! if you have time to spend on the different beaches beyond the tour i recommend! overall this tour was good and worth the money, they do offer hotel pick up and dropoff which is nice!
