About this tour
This is a short planning call for travellers wanting to visit Santorini's wineries without over-scheduling the day. Marousso asks about your taste in wine and how much time you have, then suggests two or three wineries that fit together well, from larger tasting rooms to smaller family producers. She draws on years of visiting these wineries herself.
The call opens with questions about your taste and pace, then Marousso explains her suggestions and why each one fits. She keeps the route realistic rather than overly ambitious, accounting for driving time between wineries. You leave with a short written plan.
This suits travellers planning to hire a car and taste wine independently who want a route worked out in advance. It also helps anyone unfamiliar with the island's wine regions.

- A 30-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip
- A short follow-up note with every place mentioned

Questions about this tour
What will the call cover?
The guide talks you through Santorini: where to go, what to eat, and answers to whatever you ask.
What happens if the call drops?
The guide will try you again straight away.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Do I need to buy or cook anything?
No. This is a conversation: the guide describes the dishes and where to find them, so you can try them yourself whenever suits you.

How reviews work
Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking". We check reviews before they appear and publish positive and negative ones alike; we remove only reviews that break our rules (insults, personal data, unrelated content). Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
