By Lori(CA)July 25, 2026Reviewed Tour Santorini: Private Sightseeing Tour with Flexible ItineraryThe best way to see the IslandThis is the absolutely best way to see the Island. We combined this 5 Hour private driver with the Day trip to Santorini from Paros. We did not do the bus ride to Fira with the group. The driver, Sammy, was amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable. The communication about pick up was clear and he was waiting for us when we arrived at Athinos Port. Sammy took us to excellent spots in Oia to see the famous Blue Domes. We had lunch at Dodo’s at Perivolos black sand beach and went to see the beautiful spot called the “Heart of Santorini “. Sammy had us back at the port on time for our boat ride back. The traffic was crazy and Sammy navigated everything perfectly. I highly recommend hiring a driver to get the most out of the day experience.
