Christina was an amazing tour guide. She made our day in Mykonos so enjoyable by telling us valuable information and taking us to great places. She was fun and easy to understand. She gave us tips and recommendations for the rest of our day on our own. Viator is the best! The app is user friendly and organized.

I really enjoyed Andrea's method. We saw the lighthouse first, then the town. The bakery had authentic, tasty pastries and the owners were customer service oriented and friendly! We really learned a lot on the walking 🚶‍♀️ tour. Then, she took us to the wind mills. However, a movie was being filmed. Excellent attitude and customer service spirit!!

Book This One!

Teresa_Z, Jun 2026
Christina was the BEST tour guide! She provided lots of interesting information about the island, kept us informed of our itinerary and provided perfect stops for wonderful coffee, snacks and water closets. The tour was a marvelous combination of bus ride, stops for beautiful views and walking thru the narrow walkways thru town. Christina's recommendation of Captain's Restaurant for lunch was excellent. We had the best seafood and craft beer!

Wonderful experience

A Beautiful Mykonos Tour

Opeyemi_A, May 2026
This tour was a beautiful way to experience Mykonos in just a few hours, and our guide, Christina from i.travel Mykonos, made it truly exceptional. She was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable - the kind of guide who instantly puts you at ease and brings the island’s history, culture, and hidden corners to life with effortless storytelling. From the peaceful stop in Ano Mera Village to the stunning viewpoints and the charming walk through Mykonos Town, Christina guided us with genuine care and insight. Her passion for the island showed in every explanation and every thoughtful detail she shared. The tour was smooth, well‑paced, and full of beautiful moments. If you want a stress‑free, enriching introduction to Mykonos with a guide who feels like a local friend, Christina is truly wonderful. Highly recommended.

Fantastic tour with great guide.

Skyler_T, May 2026
Absolutely amazing tour. Andrea was SO passionate about the island and its history. It’s so easy to get caught up in th party atmosphere of Mykonos but Andrea made sure we took a step back and explored some less common parts of the island and some local areas. It ended up being the highlight of our entire trip. Tour was very well organized and Andrea even made sure that everyone knew how to use the sea taxi to return to the cruise ships, where to get the best gyro or sit down restaurant.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re truly happy to hear the tour became the highlight of your trip 😊 Andrea’s passion for Mykonos and its history really helps guests discover a deeper, more authentic side of the island beyond the party atmosphere. From local spots and hidden corners to sea taxi tips and gyro recommendations, we’re glad everything felt smooth, organized, and memorable throughout the day. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Mykonos again soon! 🌞

The combination of...

Richard_M, May 2026
The combination of touring various locations around the island with the walking tour of the town made this an outstanding experience. The walking portion of the tour was interesting but was very congested due to the volume of tourists ashore that day. Our guide Dora was excellent!

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the combination of island sightseeing and the walking tour through Mykonos Town. Cruise days can definitely make the town feel lively and busy, but we’re happy you still had an outstanding experience overall. And of course, Dora’s knowledge and energy always make the day extra special 😊 Hope to welcome you again soon! 🌞

Definitely Recommend

Jacquelyn_S, May 2026

See Mykonos with Christina

Anonymous, May 2026
Christina was very helpful and informative. There was not one question that the group asked that she didn’t know the answer to. The walking is very easy but you would miss very little if you didn’t want to walk at all. Mykonos was not my favorite island but if you’re going to go see it, go with Christina.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re glad you found Christina so helpful and knowledgeable—she truly knows Mykonos inside out. It’s also great to hear the pace and walking felt manageable. We appreciate your honest feedback and are happy you chose to explore the island with us. 😊🌞

Well-Led, Well-Informed Tour

Bruce_H, Apr 2026
Very well-informed guide. Andrea understands mykonos and conveys her enthusiasm for the culture and history of the island in a clear and positive way. Very organized.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for your kind words! Andrea’s passion for Mykonos really shines through, and we’re so glad you enjoyed her clear and engaging way of sharing the island’s culture and history. Happy to hear everything felt well organized too—just how we like it! 😊

Tour company meh, tour guide amazing!

James_B, Apr 2026
Dora the tour guide was incredible!! She truly made this very special, along with tour bus driver George. Dora is truly to be commended! She is certainly not paid enough! Now the company.. this company bumped us for a tour ship, then made the price cheaper by $14AUD to €7 so…. I don’t recommend booking early. You will be punished. Furthermore, I don’t recommend asking for help. I was confused between the cruise terminal and ferry port. No care given. Disappointed with the company communication and logistics. The tour guide Dora though, salvaged the tour for us. Can’t thank her enough!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for your feedback—we truly appreciate it. We’re very glad to hear Dora and George made such a great impression. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to them. Regarding pricing, we occasionally run special offers. Cancellations with rebooking at a "special offer rate" are always welcome if preferred. We also did try to reach you to assist, however as you informed us you already arrived earlier than scheduled at the meeting location.

A beautiful tour of a beautiful island

Ryan_S, Apr 2026
The tour guide Dora was excellent and I felt like I was able to see so much more of Mykonos than I would have on foot. Learning all history but also seeing the less touristy parts of the island more inland was a very unique experience as well. Very worth the price!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 We’re so happy to hear you had such a great experience with Dora—she truly is fantastic and loves sharing both the history and the hidden sides of Mykonos. It’s wonderful that you got to explore beyond the usual spots and see a more authentic side of the island. And we love hearing it was worth the price—that means everything to us! 🌞

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed exploring all the most beautiful spots in Mykonos — it really is a photographer’s dream! So glad the island made such a great impression.

Andrea is the best

Ned_A, Oct 2025
We had Andrea as our guide and that made all the difference. Despite the fact that she is from the UK, she has lived in Mykonos for 35 years and is very knowledgeable, articulate and excellent at telling the story of her adopted home. She is one of the best guides we have ever had.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Andrea will be delighted to read your words — she truly lives and breathes Mykonos after so many years here, and her storytelling is something special. We’re so happy she helped you connect with the island in such a meaningful way. Hearing she’s one of the best guides you’ve ever had means a lot to all of us.

Great Tour, Poor Directions

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the tour and your guide — that means a lot to us. We’re sorry for the confusion with the meeting point instructions. Hope to welcome you back to Mykonos one day!

Thanks Christina for this...

Ricardo_R, Oct 2025
Thanks Christina for this spectacular tour! I've always thought that Mykonos was only off the hook parties but not at all. Very friendly guide with a perfect english and a deep knowledge about her island.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you discovered the real Mykonos beyond the party scene — there’s so much beauty and history to enjoy! Christina will be thrilled to read your kind words; she truly loves sharing her island and connecting with guests from all over the world.

Amazing Experience

Laura_C, Oct 2025
The first thing Christina said when she boarded the bus was that she was originally from New York, came here 30 years ago and never left. That sealed the deal for us! The bus took us to visit the lighthouse, Kalafatis Beach, the village of Ano Mera, Little Venice, the iconic windmills (for the Money Shot 😊), and the main village. We learned more on this tour than we have in any other tour in Europe and had an incredible day. Christina was also correct, Mykonos is better than Santorini! 😉 You won’t be disappointed with this tour.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for this amazing review! We absolutely love how you captured the spirit of the tour — Christina will be thrilled to read it (and she’ll definitely agree with you about Mykonos vs. Santorini 😉). It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the stories, sights, and all those picture-perfect moments across the island. We’re so happy Mykonos left such a great impression — hope to see you again soon!

Andrea a delight

Cathleen_N, Oct 2025
Excellent your guide Andrea. She really knew lots of information about the island and showed us many pretty sites. Highly recommend!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering Mykonos with Andrea — she truly loves sharing the island’s stories and special spots. Your recommendation means a lot to us!

Very positive Mykonos excursion experience

Steven_D, Oct 2025
Our guide, Christina, did a great job of including everyone, sharing lots of interesting information, and speaking loud enough and in locations that everyone could hear. The driver, George, was very good at navigating the narrow streets. They provided water on the bus, and there was a stop with a local bakery so it's ready to grab a snack if you are hungry. We would recommend this tour to get to know and experience Mykonos much better than just walking around.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed exploring Mykonos with Christina and George — they make a great team! It’s great to hear you appreciated the little touches, like the water on board and the bakery stop. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us!
