4.Santorini Walking Tour with a Personal Photographer

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 134 reviews · 1 to 2 hours (approx.) · from $240

Private Santorini photo walk with a personal photographer in Oia and Imerovigli, guided poses, and 25 edited images per hour in 2-3 days.

“This was not a tour. It was a photoshoot. Photographer was nice but lacked any kind of personality and was not at all engaging. Poses were just fine at best and cheesy/awkward at worst. We did however get a small handful of nice photos with the beautiful scenery but nothing better than we could have done with our iphones. I wish I had been more forthcoming that we just wanted "normal" photos as opposed to staged artistic poses.”

It was a disaster. Totally unreliable and unprofessional. It ruined our entire day. I would never recommend them and I would urge Tripadvisor to end its relationship with that tour company.”
