DESCRIPTION
Itinerary
Meet your private guide at the ferry port and transfer to Delos Island. At its prosperous peak, the island was covered in temples and sanctuaries dedicated to all sorts of gods.
Delos was once an important trading point in the Mediterranean and the major religious center of the Aegean Sea.
It is said to be the birthplace of the Apollo, the god of music, light and beauty. Pilgrims came from all over with gifts and offerings, making the island an important sanctuary.
Excavations of the 19th century unearthed the remains of a once vibrant town- mosaics, the Naxos marble lions and statues are some of the ancient artifacts you will see here. Full commentary by your guide will bring this city back to life.
Transfer back to Mykonos with your guide in the ferry to begin your tour of the Old Town.
Together with your guide, you will wind through Mykonos' narrow labyrinthine streets on this walking tour.
Visit Scarpa, also known as Little Venice for it's architectural similarity to the famous Italian city.
The houses are built right onto the edge of the sea with their balconies overhanging the water.
Next, travel to the western-edge of town to see the famous windmills of Mykonos.
Historically, these were used to refine grain, and they date back to the 16th century when Mykonos was a major trading port between Venice and Asia.
The castle district is next to see the Paraportiani Church which is considered one of Greece's most famous architectural works.
At the end of the tour you can walk back to your ship (20 min) or get a shuttle from Mykonos old town
