Romantic Cycling Tour with Private Picnic at the beach

My wife and I celebrated our 45th anniversary with a trip to Greece recently and as a part of that trip on April 13th we took a cycling tour and picnic at Fokos beach with Dimitra of Yummy Pedals. I will tell you up front we were thrilled with this excursion and would do it again in a heartbeat if possible. We booked as a private tour so it was just the three of us. If you want to peek behind the curtain and experience what many never get to when they visit Mykonos - I would highly recommend this outing. We biked on roads and in places we never would have found without Dimitra - and with her knowledge and history of the island the day really flew by. We were also blown away with the picnic lunch on the beach - the freshly prepared greek food far exceeded our expectations - and the setting was spectacular. After Dimitra prepared the lunch she left us on our own for about thirty minutes to enjoy. You can't go wrong with this excursion!!

Great way to see parts of Mykonos by bike especially with Dimi! Dimi was an excellent tour guide explaining local culture and presented a tasty meal on Fokos Beach. The e-bikes were an awesome way to traverse the hills. The family farm where we started the tour is a great place for a nice meal and try their organic wine! And pet sweet Marika!

This was a fabulous tour! We were referred to Yummy Pedals by some people we met on a train in Paris. They raved about the E-Bikes, the farm and the beach picnic. The farm was very cool. We love animals and very cool how the let them out while we were there to roam and explained out the animals helped with the natural pest control and fertilizes their farm. My husband has lung issues and hasnt ridden a bike since he was a teen. At 60 years old the E-bikes made it easier with assistance, for me I used with less assistance and got more of a nice workout! Dimitra was very knowledgeable about the island, culture and history. Gorgeous scenery on the ride. The beach was just lovely and she set up a tent and prepared an amazing organic lunch and their winery's own wine. We loved it! Would highly recommend and we would definitely do it again and book way in advance to make sure we didnt miss the opportunity to do it again! We have done many types of tours and this was different and a wonderful experience.

This tour was great our guide was wonderful he was very knowledgeable about the history of Greece and very informative. The picnic that was set up on the beach was amazing cute little spot on the beach which was all to ourselves that was so cool and pretty. The food was so good and experience was awesome would definitely do this again!!

We did the bike tour with snacks at the beach with our adult children & their significant others. And it was a blast!!! Dimi and Villi (spelling) made sure that we were safe while making sure that everyone was having a good time. We stopped at a family church & learned so much history and culture of Mykonos - Dimi is passionate about her culture, her family business & bicycling and it shines throughout the experience. She took photos of our trip along the way, (underwater even!), and shared them with us. The lunch and wine at the beach were tasty- and special care was taken for the vegetarians in our group. Afterwards, we tasted wine at the family vineyard & met all of the animals that live there. We even took a few bottles of wine back to enjoy the next day. This is a must do experience in Mykonos! It was authentic, & supports a local family business. I can’t imagine missing this experience in Mykonos.

My guide Dimitris was wonderful. He had so much knowledge about Mykonos, he prepared an excellent picnic and knew how to keep me safe on a bike. Bike ride isn’t too challenging and is incredibly scenic.

It was a very well organized tour!! Loved the bike ride, the beach, the hike. Yummy Pedals were such great people. It was all very perfect :-)

My wife and I just returned from a two week tour of Turkey and Greece. The majority of our time was spent on the islands of Mykonos and Santorini. The highlight of the entire trip was the bike tour we took with Yummy Pedals.. Our guide was the owner and founder Dimitra. The ride was not long, but we stopped at several points where she took her time to explain the history of Mykonos. We went inside one of the most beautiful small churchs you see all over the island. Our destination was an out of the way beach on the north side of the island.. far away from the tourists. On this beach she set up a Greek feast for us to enjoy. Of all the meals we had on our trip this was one of the best!! I only wish she had brought enough for her to sit with us and tell us more about her island. To sum it up.. I recommend the tour without hesitation. if you're an experienced rider, you'll be fine. If you are not you can rent an E bike and you'll be fine.. If you don't know how to ride a bike, she has hiking tours that I would also highly recommend.

Dimitra was great! She was very informative and helpful with the bikes. The beach picnic was very well done as well. Awesome experience!

This was our first time on an e-bike. Our guide made it effortless. His instructions were clear and we caught on right away. We rode all over the hills and valleys for about four hours. We chose not to go to the beach and just see more things instead. We visited tiny churches, wonderful towns, all with an excellent, knowledgeable and welcoming guide. Our e-bike trip ended at his family winery at vioma farm. True bliss. Not to be missed!
