On top of Santorini being a relaxing and beautiful place to be ,at the private tour we took with Theodore was excellent, he took the time to show and tell us stories about the history of certain places and also showed us some of the best places to eat gyros and wine ( which I bought a few ) and the highlight of the trip was the track up the mountain to see the castle and take pictures, which if you need a person who will get all angles it’s Theodore. Had a great time and can’t wait to come back !!!
