Our guide was great as we scheduled easy pick up and drop off locations. Each winery had a different feel as they were located in different parts of southern Santorini. Tour was finished off with Venetsanos winery which was located in the cliffs overlooking the caldera. We would recommend.

I traveled to Athens in December 2020. During that time Greece was under strict restrictions due to the covid-19 pandemic. I booked the transfer in early December and they were very responsive to all my queries regarding my trip and kept me posted up to the last minute. I had a late night arrival but Christos, the driver was there on time with a warm welcome. The company vehicle was extremely clean,fully equipped with sanitizer and disinfectant wipes and masks (if needed). All the preventive measures were taken. On the way to Athens, Christos gave me a detailed update on the measures and the movement restrictions imposed by that time and thoroughly explained the procedure to issue permits (with SMS) to go out. I book the transfer back to the airport with Marryposa. Cannot thank them enough for their service and hopefully next time will be on their base, on Santorini island, for a full tour! Totally recommended for all travelers arriving to Athens and need a transfer!

We visited Santorini for couple of days in October and our hotel recommended us santomax for an unforgettable wine tour. Very informative, our tour guide was professional and because of Covid 19 the van and the wineries have all the equipment to keep us safe! Thank you for that experience. Stay safe.

Victor was very friendly and knowledgeable about Santorini. He was open to our itinerary that we put together plus suggested other sites to see. The monastery at the highest point on the island was great plus he got us to the best picture spot in Oia. He then got us a spot at the Santo Winery to get pics of the sunset.
