Description
From charming villages to sandy beaches, there's much to see on this private, 4-hour tour of Mykonos.
Pick up in front of the cruise ship at the agreed time (if ship docks at the new port of Tourlos meeting at the gate, if the tender boats dock at the pier of the old port meeting at the pier) or from your hotel. This tour combines a vehicle driving tour around the Island of Mykonos and a walking tour in the old city. By driving around you will have the chance to see the beautiful and romantic white sandy beaches of the Island and also you will go to see the old city from the top road.
Starting the City-and Island tour by walking the small and narrow whitewashed streets, where you will appreciate the fact that it's confusing layout was designed to foil the attacking pirates. We have many possibilities to take nice photographs in the early morning, quiet city. We see fishermen and their wooden boats, small private chapels and houses built in typical Cycladic style. We get orientation and information in the labyrinth of the old town as well as impressions of the small port and the churches in town, like the Paraportiani church. You will stroll through picture-perfect Little Venice, so called due to its striking resemblance in design to the famous canal city. You will also see the famous windmills, an island trademark, which offer a wonderful photo opportunity. Of course we will find Petros The Pelecan, the mascot of Mykonos!
After this we are exploring the island with a vehicle, visiting some of the most famous beaches and the inner landscape. We will visit the beach of Saint Stefanos and then we stop at the Panorama point above Mykonos town with a stunning view and photo spot. Furthermore we drive to the famous beaches of Agios Giannis (from where we have a nice view to the sacred island of Delos), Plati Yalos. In the second main village of Mykonos, Ano Mera, an idyllic place 6km from town, where the guests have enough free time for a stroll around the traditional square and they can visit the monk monastery Panagia Tourliani built in the 16th century. Next stop is Kalafatis beach where there is time to relax a little and have a coffee or a refreshment (not included in the price), before going back to town and to reach a place with a fantastic view all over the town and neighbor islands.
A Half Day Trip with a lot of memorable impressions!
