Santorini Wine Tour
CareyS_W, October 2026
Our guide Maria was outstanding! She was both knowledgeable and entertaining. She had a great sense of humor and was playful with the guests. She made sure everyone was included with any dietary needs or food aversions. All the food parings were spot on even some more unusual combinations. Her welcoming attitude was contagious. The group mingled well with her encouragement. We would highly recommend this to anyone who is interested in the unique microclimate on Santorini where the grapes are grown.

An amazing experience
Debbie_B, October 2026
What an incredible evening exploring Santorini’s wine country! Visiting three different wineries was such a wonderful way to experience the island’s unique wines, local traditions, and breathtaking beauty. Each winery offered something special, and tasting the local wines while learning about Santorini’s distinctive vineyards and winemaking history made the experience even more memorable.
The evening was beautifully paced, with amazing wines, stunning surroundings, and the perfect atmosphere to relax and soak in the magic of Santorini. It was a fantastic combination of culture, wine, and unforgettable views!
If you’re visiting Santorini, I highly recommend this wine tour. It was a truly memorable experience and a perfect way to spend an evening on this beautiful Greek island! 🍇🍷❤️

Great trip
Kevin_L, October 2026
Great experience. Mirena was our tour guide, very outgoing, explained everything, never felt rushed. Had a great couple from Canada and another great couple from Scotland with us who made the trip that much more enjoyable. If you want to taste some great wine and leave with great memories, book this excursion.

Fun Wine Tour
Mackenzie_K, October 2026
My husband and I did the wine tour as recommended by friends, and it was lovely! Our tour guide, Mel, was great; very knowledgeable, funny, and organized! Each winery provided its own food pairing with each wine - which was more food than what I anticipated! It was nice to see more of the island outside of Oia and Fira, and learn about the process and history of wine making on Santorini.
