Overview
Mykonos Island is world famous for its unique Mykonian landscape.
The name Mykonos conjures up a scene of pure white houses, snow-white churches with their red or blue domes, windmills, beautiful bays, and superb beaches with crystal clear waters. And it's all true!
Our adventure begins as we leave the port and travel south to the beach of Agios Ioannis. The drive offers a nice view of Delos Island in the background and will allow you to take in a beautiful panoramic view. Continuing on, we'll pass by Ornos Beach, one of the most stunning and cosmopolitan beaches in Mykonos with plenty of luxurious hotels, tavernas, and yachts mooring offshore. This is a wealthy island, both economically and physically.
Passing by the beaches of Kalafatis and Agia Anna, we'll head to the center of the island and the traditional village of Ano Mera. We'll visit the Monastery Panayia Tourliani, built in the 16th century, where guides will brief you about this unique little monastery. It is charming, almost like folk-art in style, and very memorable.
After a short visit at the monastery, it's time for another Greek tradition--a taste of ouzo! Served with Greek appetizers at a peaceful little square of the village, you'll relax and take in the scenery.
Following your time at the village of Ano Mera, you'll enjoy a ride into Mykonos Town, where you will see the famous windmills, as well as Little Venice with its myriad of cafes and restaurants. Stroll the town, stopping at the eateries, boutiques, and stores that catch your eye. You'll have free time to dine, shop, stroll.
Thereafter, re-board your vehicle for the return trip to the pier. If you prefer, you may have the guide leave you in Mykonos Town and you may return on your own.
