The adventure begins with pick-up from your accommodation in Athens (please specify when booking).

Upon arrival in Mykonos, you'll have about 6 hours to explore the island before the return ferry in the evening - more than enough time to visit all the popular spots!
Hop on a local bus to reach the heart of Mykonos town, where you can embark on a captivating 60-minute walking tour through the island's charming winding streets. Admire the iconic Cycladic architecture, with white-washed blue-domed buildings and labyrinthine streets. Visit the waterfront tavernas at Little Venice and keep an eye out for the famous Mykonos pelican. Afterwards, stop at the picturesque windmills perched on a hill overlooking the town, a must-see spot for breathtaking photos. Stroll to the Matoyiannia neighbourhood, where you can browse designer boutiques and unique local shops.
As the afternoon unfolds, dine at one of the local taverns and indulge in delicious Greek delicacies. You could also spend your time at one of the island's bustling beaches, sunbathing on the sandy shore and swimming in the azure waters. However you choose to spend your day in Mykonos, you'll have an excellent time soaking in the charming atmosphere and magnificent natural beauty! In the evening, you'll board the ferry again at Mykonos Port for your return boat trip to Athens. Upon arrival at Rafina Port, you'll be transferred back to your accommodation in Athens.
