Matoyianni Street
Matoyianni Street Stroll your way down Matoyianni street, with the cute but posh shops, restaurants and the lovely stone covered pedestrian alleys and get the vibe of the island's town!

Church of Paraportiani

Walking Tour-Meh
There was very little History included in this tour. Mostly a few tidbits, pic locations, nice bakery stop, other recommendations and where to shop. Our guide was Irish (?) And we thought maybe she was a little tipsy but hard to tell with the accent lol. She was friendly, helpful and chatty but we didn't really get what we thought we would out of it. We finished 30 min early because we didn't think we'd get anything else out of it.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. This tour is not intended to be a historical tour, it’s centered on local culture and everyday life. Regarding the guide, having an Irish accent does not imply she was tipsy. Our guides take their work seriously and always aim to provide a great experience. Warm regards, Ria

Great way of orienteering your way around Mykonos town, which is beautiful but easy to get lost in.
The guide was very knowledgable and able to answer questions about the history and geography of the place as well as offering advice on where to party! Wear a hat that will stay on your head: the wind is relentless!

Friendly tour guide, see all the sights
Our tour guide had been living in Mykonos since 2015 and was super knowledgeable. We started at old port and walked all the way to the windmills around the whole island. It was our first day and we saw all the highlights and I appreciated that they gave us directions to the bus, bakery etc. great tour to see all the highlights in a short period of time and get your bearings in the city

Enjoyable tour
Stephanie was knowledgeable and entertaining. She made the tour really fun , even stopping at a bakery, which has been fully operational since 1420. 😳 We saw everything in the small township and she provided recommendations for shopping on a very cool, windy day. Would highly recommend to couples and families.
