“It's a shame your company is, by advertising and making profits, causing travellers like myself and thousands of others to descend on a little island clearly totally unable to cope with the volume of tourists and so spoiling what should have been a quiet and enjoyable day. Nowhere to relax, nowhere to enjoy the beauty, just the most stressful and suffocating experience I've ever encountered - too many people!!!!!!!!!!”

“For an island with such a grand reputation we found it to be ugly and filled with tourists as to make it uncomfortable in the small streets. The ferry ride over, the bus ride up the town was all so unappealing that I wouldn’t waste my time nor energy again. All those beautiful pictures of Santorini must be staged as to make it look like a beautiful place, but in reality, it IS NOT!”
