Mykonos Island Tour

Welcome to Greece's most famous cosmopolitan island, a whitewashed paradise in the heart of the Cyclades. Set out on a journey to discover a fascinating world where glamour meets simplicity. On Mykonos Celebrities, Stars, Vip’s, college students and families mingle together to celebrate the Greek summer. Whether you are an entertainment junkie out for a real good time, or a visitor who wishes to explore the island's history and tradition, Mykonos will certainly meet your expectations. According to mythology, Mykonos was formed from the petrified bodies of giants killed by Hercules. And did you know that the island took its name from the grandson of Apollo, "Mykonos"?

Our Mykonos Island Tour start from the capital town Chora built in the shape of an amphitheatre but instead spreads out over a wide area. It is one of the best examples of Cycladytic architecture and a spellbinding attraction for visitors. 

There are narrow marble streets and whitewashed houses with colourful doors and window frames, bougainvillea flowers in purple bloom and hidden churches. The church of Panayia Paraportiani, the Town hall and the castle situated above the harbour. Continue to visit the Archaeological, Folklore and Maritime Museums. 

Wander around the pedestrian shopping streets of the Hóra, always colourful and busy. The most glamorous of all is Matoyánni Street, lined with brand name stores, charming cafés and stylish restaurants. Soak up the atmosphere along the lively waterfront and admire a fleet of fishing boats casting colourful reflections in the azure waters. 

This is where you will find the Kazárma building, which served as accommodation for the soldiers of Manto Mavrogenous, a hero of the Greek Revolution. The first floor served as her personal residence. 

While you're out strolling, don't be surprised if you come across the official mascot of Mykonos, which is nothing other than a... Pelican! Pétros the Pelican was found by a fisherman after a storm in 1954, and eventually became the locals' companion. 

One of the most scenic corners of the island is "Little Venice", an 18th century district, dominated by grand captains' mansions with colourful balconies and stylish windows. With balconies perched over the sea, pictures of the famous Italian city spring to mind. 

The second traditional settlement of Mykonos is Áno Merá, situated around the historic monastery of Panayia Tourliani (a 16th century church with a brilliant carved wooden iconostasis). Our tour end north, in Fteliá, lies an important Neolithic settlement, and a 14th-13th century BC Mycenaean tomb.
