If it is your first time in Santorini I strongly recommend this tour! Petro was our first tour guide in Greece and he definitely left a huge impact on us. It was our first time in Santorini yet Preto made sure we didn’t miss any important spots. He was very attentive and caring, he definitely made our experience memorable and took the best pictures of us as well!
