Just make sure to get a guide like ours! Can't wait to go back!

Our guide was an absolute gem—so friendly and full of stories about the island’s history and culture. They took us to all the hidden spots that you just wouldn’t find in a guidebook, plus the best local eats! I loved exploring the charming streets and soaking up the sun. Honestly, if you ever get the chance to visit Mykonos, definitely go for it.

A place with warm welcome

The island compact size made it simple to explore on foot. Whole trip was good but if I had any suggestions, it would be don't miss the opportunity to visit the famous Paraga waterfront, where you can admire the luxury yachts and sailboats.

Worst experience ever.

Extremely large group and bus did not arrive….ever! This is a third party vendor and relies on bus company to pick up passengers. Be very wary!

Operator response

We regret to hear about your disappointment and appreciate the chance to address the concerns you've raised: 1. By travel industry standards, a group of 23 is considered small rather than large. 2. The bus arrived at the appointed time. As mentioned in this tour descriptions, the start time on your ticket is approximate and may be adjusted based on ship arrivals. This information is communicated to all the guests closer to your tour date. 3. Had the detailed pickup instructions sent to your email and phone two days in advance been noted, you would not have arrived an hour early. 4. We are not a third-party vendor; we are an official supplier for Viator, providing shore excursions in Mykonos for 15 years. Our tour coordinator suggests that your disappointment may stem from a misunderstanding upon arrival, where you expected a private tour. We advise checking the tour name and description carefully when booking through Viator, as private tours typically specify "PRIVATE" in the title. Additionally, please note that private tours are not available at 100 EUR in Mykonos, one of the most expensive destinations in Greece. Safe travels!

Go with Smaller size tour

We enjoyed the tour, but we were not able to get to the beach because we ran out of time. We had no time for the church either. I would cancel the lighthouse so you can see the beach. It was a bummer, but not the fault of the tour guide. Strongly suggest you don’t have more than 20 people on a tour like this. We had 43. My friends did the same tour with only 20, and were able to get to all the stops on the itinerary.
