Amazing. Fun packed day. guide Jannis (sp?) was very engaging, informative and attentive. Driver Nikos kept us safe on the winding roads of Santorini. We also had lots of free time in Perissa. Almost 2 hours! Ample enough time for lunch and a swim. A+++ Only con was the organization for the bus ride back. Utter chaos with the pax line ups at the parking lot trying to figure out which bus to take as not everyone would take it back with the original driver. But after everyone was assigned, the buses still promptly left at the departure time. Overall a good experience.
