The Greek island of Santorini is a blissful spot for a getaway, and its capital, Fira, is a vision of dramatic cliffs and pristine whitewashed buildings. The Archaeological Museum contains Minoan artifacts from Fira’s ancient foundations, while several churches and monasteries offer a glimpse into the historical and contemporary religious make up of this beautiful village. Exploring the shops and cafes along Fira’s narrow footpaths is a leisurely way to spend an afternoon.

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.

The service was good before and during the trip. Geroge was helpful and replied to our questions immediately . We planned our own trip and did not ask for a guide. He gave us good suggestion on our trip. Marinos, the driver, introduced us things about Santorini. He is patient, gentle, punctual and helpful. The van was new, clean and spacious.

Had a great trip. The food served was excellent for this type of trip. Barbecued prawns and Greek salad plus a few extra options. The views on the trip were excellent and the crew were amazing. Our original trip was cancelled due to some thunderstorms but the team helped us fit the trip in before our flight which was hugely appreciated and the kind of customer service which makes it an easy trip to recommend.

Amani was a wonderful guide - she strikes the right balance and was very good a meeting our wishes - she brought us to small passages in Oia and also in remote villages which are less touristic. She knows Santorini inside out and is full of positive energy . We were with our 6 year old daughter and she was perfect to connect with her , even prepared a small book about the history of the caldera and the volcano for our daughter . She speakers French as well so don't hesitate to book her for a private tour . As we were interested to have family photos in the beautiful scenery of Santorini we booked a photographer that came with us on the tour to take shots. Ask for MELINA KATRI . She is the photographer that came with us and did great shots .

Our day started by going to the wrong pick up location (My fault completely). Our tour guide was so accommodating when I called to see about our pick up, his response was, "No problem, I'll be there in just a few minutes" My boyfriend and I could not rave about this tour anymore! Highly highly recommend! We were lucky and got to be the only ones on the tour, so we got what felt like the full VIP treatment. Our tour guide was so friendly and knowledgeable and really made an effort to explain the history of every stop we made and even acted as our very own photographer at many of the stops. Highly recommend taking this tour if you visit the island of Santorini, you will not be disappointed. I can honestly say this tour was an experience of a lifetime and something I will never forget.

We liked the services so much that we used Karavas Travel on two different days. On both occasions, the tour was customized to our requests and priced very fairly. Our guide went the extra mile and beyond, offering freebies and gifts, giving us insider tips, telling us local stories with refreshing honesty. Even when we were undecided or making changes last minute, nothing was too difficult for them, and there was always a good idea, like a special sunset spot or a great winery. Also, do book them as your airport transfer: on arrival, I had bad experiences with another company (see another review) chosen by my hotel and the contrast with Karavas Travel could not have been starker.

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!
