Our guide, Vaggelis, took us to different parts of the island so we could get a feel for the area away from the busy tourist sites. He was able to give us information about the history of the island as well as interesting tidbits about each place we visited. The walk to the windmills and around the old port shopping area was low-stress and easy to maneuver. We were able to quickly pop in stores to shop, but the main goal there wasn’t shopping, so don’t expect to spend a lot of time shopping. The time on the beach was relaxing. We could change and get in the water or just relax with a drink in the nearby restaurant. We could have purchased a chair with an umbrella but prices for that were expensive for only 30 minutes-1 hour. This is a relaxing tour with not a lot of walking, and you get to see many parts of the island. Would recommend if you don’t just want to go shopping.
George was an exceptional guide! Our small-group tour of Mykonos was fantastic from start to finish. He picked us up directly at the cruise ship, and everything was quick, easy, and very well organized. Traveling with our 4-year-old was effortless thanks to his excellent service. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Excellent small group tour. Saw all of the highlights of the island. Our guide Alec was superb, safe and did a great job manage two groups who wanted to achieve different outcomes on the trip. He was an excellent guide to ensure we got all the best pictures too.
Old Town area is easier walking than Santorini.. we took a van to a few spots, but we didn't really get much of the history of the island... pretty though.
There were seven of us total on a family cruise and we took a semi-private tour of Mykonos. Our driver Terry was fantastic. In addition to seeing all the main sights in Mykonos we received a detailed history lesson of the area and Greece in general. Terry was very knowledgeable and keen to explain in detail.
George is very knowledgeable, responsive when setting up instructions the say prior to the trip, vibrant,and flexible with in adjusting times spent in each location to cater to the group
Terry was phenomenal! He helped us with photos and took us to the most amazing, delicious bakery/coffee shop!! Freddo Espresso is the best!!
Book this tour! Terry was the best, ask for him! We took the early tour and town was quiet which was nice. Weather was perfect!
Chris was fantastic as a guide
Chris was fantastic…warm, knowledgeable, very willing to share stories of the island. He communicated very well both before and the morning of the excursion.
