  What can I say? You saved my day! Please post this email to your website. I contact Anna for a Santorini tour, but I have found in the meantime someone else with cheaper price, so I booked him. When I got to the island, the driver wasn't even there and after many phone calls and no luck to reach him, I called Anna. I felt embarrassed to ask her if she knew my driver but I was afraid about my credit card. She very politely tracked the man for us and he showed with an old relatively car, no air-condition and definitely not smoking free, trying to explain with a few English he knew, that it was his daughter that responded in fluently English and he got caught in traffic. Of course I demanded my money back and he ensured me that he didn't charge my credit card and I could not use his service if I want it to. I was so furious that I would loose a whole day and then I thought that since Anna helped me the first time, I should give her a call. And I am glad I did! She personally gave us a tour around the island (she doesn't usually as she owns the agency) and I have to say that it was the best tour ever! My husband and 4 other friends, still talk about it! When we got back to the ship, we met with 4 other groups that Anna's agency offered tour that day and they had the same wonderful experience we had! Thank you Anna.

  Anna, I am sorry it took me a while to email you. Thank you for arranging a perfect day for us. The island is nothing like we have seen before and I am glad we choose to book a tour with you. You team is amazing and I will not hesitate to recommend you in the future.

Good Morning Anna:
just a brief note to thank you and especially Kiki for the marvelous tour we spend in Santorini on May 26th.
We enjoyed the time spend with Kiki and found her to be fun loving knowledgeable and well versed with the culture and inter working of your beautiful island.
We met with Carolyn Le Fleur of Four Seasons Travel in Savannah to tell her about our completed satisfaction with your company.
On a personal note we had lunch at terrific cafe and the one of the starters was Fried Tomato Balls which we can not find a recipe for back in the states, If is not too much trouble can you have Kiki send me a copy.
Thanks in advance

  Anna, thank you so much for one of the most memorable days of our lives. Our children told us several times that they had a fantastic day. You really went the extra mile for us and we really appreciated it! I included our 2 emails should you come to Florida and have questions. Also if you go to DC let us know as I will be there often because of Alex. Thank you again !
Ps. If you would like to include the body of this email on your website, feel free. Thanks again!!

Anna,
 
The tour went beautifully (once we got to the top).  The long line for the cable car made us an hour late, but Kiki was there waiting for us with a smile.  We all agreed to Santorini was one of our favorite places on the trip.
 
Thanks for your help in setting us this tour.  Hopefully we will be able to work together again soon.

  Dear Anna & Nikos:

On behalf of our complete group I take this opportunity to thank both of you for providing us with such excellent drivers and guides. We have all been pleasantly surprised by Santorini which was enhanced by the very charming guide who has shown us the beauty of the island and left us with an unforgettable experience and a wish to return someday.

Your guide in Athens was also most informative and has really given us the depth of history, the pulse of the city and the understanding of Modern Greece.

We feel fortunate that we have used your services and will certainly be able to recommend you with confidence to our friends who might decide to visit your areas.

Thank you again so much and best regards

  Dear Anna,

Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful tour of Santorini!  I can't wait to return there and enjoy the beaches next time.  The line for the cable cars was almost an hour long, so it was a good thing we returned to Fira a little early.  My mother-in-law really enjoyed the tour, too.  Thanks again, and have a great summer!

  Hi Anna,
I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful day in Santorini.  Our guide Gabriel was wonderful.  He was knowledgeable, kind and went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying ourselves.  I really can't say enough good things about him.  I would definitely recommend your tour and Gabriel to anyone I know going to Santorini.  I hope to return there myself, and I will definitely contact you to hire Gabriel again. 
Thank you for everything and please tell Gabriel that my party and I said thank you again.

Thank you so much for a wonderful tour of Santorini.  We had a wonderful time and Nikos was most accommodating and professional in his services.  We surely want to come back and visit again.
 
Also, thank you so much with helping us procure our tour in Athens.  We never would have survived without it.
 
We will surely recommend your services to others.

  This is my screen saver. You can see why I think of you & Santorini every day. It is so beautiful there. I always have people asking me where is that place & how did I get the picture.

  I am sitting in my wonderful cabin on Brilliance of the Seas and just had the best tour ever in Santorini. Our whole family agrees that Anna at http://www.santoriniprivatetour.com . Nikos was warm, knowledgeable, and treated us like family. Oh yeah, and the big bonus was that he was taking pictures of us all day long and gave us a disk of the entire day, and did not expect us to pay for it! We were disappointed with a couple of other tours we took in Florence and Rome, but Nikos more than made up for it. Also, Anna does not charge outrageous prices. Anyway, he gets five stars. Gotta go; tomorrow is Athens.
 

If you contact Nikos tell him that Jeff from Las Vegas says hi.



  Anna,

We all had a fabulous time on our tour in Santorini.  Our guide took some great pictures and she did a terrific job in tailoring the tour around our needs while at the same time making sure we saw all the island's highlights.  We truly enjoyed it and want to thank you!  We also appreciate the effort you made to reschedule our tour in light of the change of date for arrival.  I will make sure that we note our very pleasant experience on the chat boards and cruise critic.  Thanks again.

Hello Anna,

I recently saw your website and once again it sparks my absolute fondness for your island of Santorini. I saw the pictures of people you’ve made happy and I thought that what could be more fitting to showcase in your site but the smiling faces of a happy group. Thanks to both of you.

Eight months after our cruise on June 2005, these people are still talking of the wonderful time everyone had under Niko’s care for that one unforgettable day. And those pictures Nikos took are just gorgeous and I’ve included all in the souvenir DVD I’ve created for the group. And by the way, the group from Los Angeles California whom I’ve recommended to use your service last year were of course very happy with your tour.

And again, you will be contacted, with my highest recommendation,  by my co-worker who is booked for the Celebrity Med Cruise this August.  I wish you more success.

 

Best regards, Evelyn and the members of the Concepcion Family and Friends Reunion, June 2005



  Now that we are home and things are settled down, I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you again for the wonderful day you gave us when we visited Santorini on October 10th.  Our friend, Walt, made copies of the CD you gave us, and every time I look at it I want to come back.  I even downloaded one of the pictures onto my desktop!  I makes a day here at work much more pleasant!

Thank you again for the kindness you showed all of us, and especially our friend Mae.  Getting her that birthday cake was the highlight of her day!  We did some shopping after we left you, and Deb did her part to help your national economy.  One of the jewelry stores was very happy to see her!  Carl also bought me a beautiful gold and lapis necklace and I think of your beautiful island now whenever I wear it.  I still worry about the little kitty we named Electra and hope that she found another home after the restaurant closed.

We will definitely come back to Santorini someday, and hope to see you again when we do.  Many, many thanks again for a most memorable day!  Have a wonderful winter!

 

Sincerely,
Mary Mazzocco



  YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!  Thanks so much again,you have been so wonderful and I will also brag about your services all over the web too!! You have a great week and thank you.  A VERY satisfied customer.

  Hello Anna, and Nikos

Thank you for making our dream tour come true. Everything was perfect and I can't wait to see the pictures from our beautiful day. I hope you have a wonderful winter and we look forward to seeing you soon back in Santorini!

  Just got back from the Celebrity Galaxy Eastern Med trip and wanted to pass along my evaluations of private guide we used for Santorini:

Santorini-There is a lot of talk on the board about not using a guide here and I agree that if you just want to see a little scenery and visit a few shops you probably don't need one. But if you are like me, and want to really see the island and its archaeological sites in detail, you will find them well worth the money. We used
www.santoriniprivatetour.com  (Anna arranged for us ) and also arranged for an archaeological guide, you have to specifically request for one. Akrotiri is becoming one of the most important archaeological excavations in the world but it is a complicated, hard to visualize site and you might as well not even go see it if you are not with a competent guide.It was a fabulous day and Nikos said at the end that we had seen more in that one day than most people do in a week. We went to Akrotiri, Oia, climbed the mountain to Ancient Thera, visited the main museum, a winery and some Byzantine sites and generally hiked and drove all over the Island. The archaeological guide was really great and even my seven year old son loved the day. Nikos also brings his camera and takes pictures of your family all day and hands you a CD at the end with really great pictures on it. This is probably controversial but we really enjoyed our guided tour of Santorini and I think they are well worth the money if you want to really see the sites in a day. J. Davidson


  I just wanted to add my two cents.

Our group of six toured with a guide that Anna has arranged  on June 7, on our Galaxy Western Med cruise, and we had the best tour with him than in any of the other ports. The guide took many pictures of us with stunning views as backgrounds. At the end of the tour, he drove us to the office, burned the pictures onto CD's, and gave them to us as wonderful momentos.

During the tour, the guide took us to vantage points, not known by the average tourist, for incredible views. The itinerary was extremely flexible - she gave us a variety of options for destinations and experiences. We have the highest regard for Anna, and would use her again as we definitely plan to go back to Santorini one day.

Hi Anna,

Thank you so much for one of the most memorable days of our lives. Sorry if I was too much trouble, but you have to admit that I am a trooper. No one can believe how beautiful Santorini is! It was so great that we would like to come again sometime and see you. Maybe we could even bring some friends and family. Only a tour by you would do, though.

Anna, it was so nice to meet you and put a face to the emails. You all are such happy people and seem to do a great business together. We wish only the best for you. Nikos, what can I say - you're the best.

We will check in with you from time to time and spread the word about our enchanting day in Santorini.

Take care.

Love, Karen and Kristen



 
We would like to extend our thanks once again for the wonderful tour we took while on our stay in Santorini.
The private tour was an unforgettable experience in a magical place. Although we went during the winter
seeason during an off-peak time, you still offered us a glimpse of the true beauty of this island. You were
knowledgeable, courteous, and the comfort level of the bus and with you (answering our many questions) was superb. Our day of exploration with you was truly one of our favorite days throughout our entire trip to
Greece. When we return in the future we will definitely contact you again.

Best wishes,
Nora Dominguez and Alejandro Melo
