FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the pricing for tours per group or per person?

For our private tours, the prices listed are the total cost for the group, not the individuals of that group. For our public group tours, the price is per guest.

What are the prices of your sightseeing services?

You will receive an exact price offer from our staff. Generally, rates depend on the duration, group size, and language required.

What if I am not sure about how many guests I will have?

Santorini tour group sizes are notoriously unstable. We are happy to work with you as best we can to establish a range of likely attendees and price the tour with that range in mind.

If my plans change may I change my reservation?

If you want to change your tour or tour date you can do so up to 24 hours prior to the trip by sending an e-mail or calling us. We are happy to work with you as best we can to establish a range of likely attendees and price the tour with that range in mind.

Is there a charge for changing a reservation?

No, there is no charge for changing a reservation.

Where do the tours start?

Your personal tour guide will pick you up for free from your hotel, airport or port or everywhere in Santorini.

Are your vehicles air-conditioned?

Yes, all of our vehicles are air-conditioned.

Is there a lot of walking?

No, we do a lot of stops for picture taking to give you the opportunity to experience Santorini. All of the stops on our Sightseeing Tours are just a few yards from the vehicles and therefore you do not need to walk far. If you prefer to stay on the bus, you can take pictures from your seat.

Do we stop for lunch on the Tour?

Yes! In Santorini with so much great food, it would be crazy not to. Some people like to grab a quick pizza or a hot dog, and some people like to sit down for a nice relaxing meal in Restaurant or Traditional Taverna. Either is an option, but just know that if we sit down for a relaxing meal we might have to move faster to get the rest of the sights.

Do you have bathroom stops?

Yes, we have scheduled bathroom stops along the routes. Should you required additional stops please let your tour guide know at the beginning of the tour and we will be more than happy to accommodate your request.

Is it okay to tip your tour guide?

Tipping is always optional, and if it means you are not going to be able to feed your children tonight, then please save your money. But if you have a great time and want to thank your tour guide, gratuities are very much appreciated.

Will I be back in time before my ship departs the port?

Yes. Our shore excursions depart from Santorini port and return well before sailing. In 10 years of operations, no Santorini’s Shore Excursion has ever missed a port departure. However, if it were to occur due to an unforeseeable circumstance, our Company guarantees fare to your next port of call.

Will you refund my money if I miss my tour because the ship is late or cannot make it into port?

Yes. You will receive a full refund for your tour if you cannot make a tour departure due to a ship delay or a missed port call. You will of course also receive a full refund if weather or an equipment problem prevents the tour operator from delivering the tour. Simply let us know within two weeks of the date of the tour, and we will issue a full refund
