About Santorini Experts

Hi, I’m Melina! I was born and raised here in beautiful Santorini, so you could say I know the island like the back of my hand. I speak Greek, English, and German, which makes it easy for me to connect with people from all over the world—and that’s one of the things I love most about working in tourism.

After finishing high school in 2024, I started studying Hospitality Management in Germany during the winter months. But every summer, I come back home to join the SantoriniExperts team as the office assistant.

I love being part of such a passionate and welcoming team. Whether I’m helping with schedules, coordinating tours, or just making sure things run smoothly behind the scenes, I enjoy playing a small part in creating amazing experiences for our guests.

My name is Eleftheria, which in Greek means “Freedom,” and I couldn’t be more excited to share the freedom and wonder that Santorini offers. Born and raised in the vibrant city of Piraeus, I initially pursued a career in biology, dedicating 14 years to research and clinical oncology. However, my love for this extraordinary island, where I spent many summers as a student, ultimately drew me back.

Eleven years ago, I made the life-changing decision to call Santorini my home, and I’ve never looked back. As a passionate wine lover and a certified 3rd-level sommelier, my enthusiasm for the island’s unique wine culture and gastronomy only continues to grow. I am always learning, exploring, and sharing the rich history and incredible flavors that make Santorini such a special place.

My true passion lies in leading wine and island tours, where I can connect with people and immerse them in the beauty, history, and magical energy of Santorini. Together, let’s embark on an unforgettable journey and experience the wonders of this enchanting island!

I’m Sabine, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to the enchanting world of Santorini. Born in Germany, my heart has always belonged to Greece, and I’ve been lucky enough to call this picturesque island home for the past 30 years.

My journey here started after completing an apprenticeship as a physician’s assistant and spending time in an architectural office. However, it was the allure of Greece that captured my soul from a young age. The decision to settle on this beautiful island was made 30 years ago, and since then, I’ve dedicated 20 wonderful years to sharing the magic of Santorini with visitors from around the world.
