Fun, windy and informative. Andrea was a great tour guide She shared her personal
Experience living in Greece, becaue she traveled there once and just never left. How amazing is that?!
Guide was fantastic, learned a lot about Mykonos. Great tour, even though it was very windy. You should be aware that you'll be taking a 15 minute water bus trip either at the beginning of the tour (if you're staying in town) or at the end (if you're staying on a cruise ship).
We took a trip around the backside of the island, where Andrea gave us the history and the life of the locals. You can sense how proud she is of the island and the people who live here. We finished in the port town, where we walked through the back alleys, this is a little off the beaten path tour, mixed with the highlights of Little Venice and the Windmills.
This is a great tour where you learn the history of the island, how the locals live and how to get around as a tourist and not be overwhelmed. 10/10

Great time, lots of history. Slow paced, stops and opportunities to use the water closet. Great tour.
Response from Host, Oct 2026
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted you enjoyed the history and highlights of Mykonos at a comfortable pace. We believe a great shore excursion should leave time to take in the sights, ask questions, and enjoy a few practical stops along the way!
Andrea was the best tour guide ever. She was very knowledgeable and spoke english very well. While on this tour she told her personal stories which made it more interesting. She schools continue to do these tours, because she’s personable and has a great personality.

We traveled to key parts of the island in a nice bus with lots of commentary during the drive about the history of the places. At the end we had a short walking tour of Little Venice and the Windmills. The views were breathtaking. Our tour guide was Georgia and she was fantastic!

Meeting point was next to port exit. Our tour guide Christina was easy to find. I believe we had the best tour guide in Mykonos, Christina seems to be very knowledgeable about Mykonos and Greece in general. I liked that we didn’t spend too much time in the area that we stopped at. The walking tour through town was also great and she recommended places to eat at. Also want to commend our driver Yanni.

Mykonos was Magnificent & Incredibly picturesque! Our guide Christina was very knowledgeable & kept our group of 30 organized & engaged with a multitude of info she has to share! We saw all the highlights - lighthouse, hillside homes, glorious beaches, uniquely MYK windmills and were given time for lots of photo ops plus a coffee break (& exceptional pastry from the bakery) near the village square AND a quick stop to wade in the sparklingly clear waters! Shoutout to George too who has rockstar driving skills on some startlingly narrow roads! We happily finished on the waterfront near Little Venice with a cold local craft beer & the best calamari ever (!) before tendering back aboard! A FAB DAY! Thank you! I Love Mykonos Travel & Viator!

The tour was excellent. Our tour guide Andrea spoke perfect English and was very knowledgeable about Mykonos geography, history and culture. We went to places you would never visit on your own and even ventured through the labyrinth of alleyways in the old city. This is great tour and should not be missed.

This was a great tour. Andrea’s love of the island and appreciation of its history made her a great story teller.

Very boring, beach was crowded n just ok. Would not recommend. Just go on your own do your own thing
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the tour wasn't to your liking. Our Half-Day Highlights tour is designed to showcase Mykonos beyond the main tourist areas, combining the island's history, culture, scenic viewpoints, traditional village, and Mykonos Town. The beach is only a short photo stop rather than the focus of the tour. We understand that a guided sightseeing experience may not suit everyone and appreciate you sharing your perspective.
A fun and super informative excursion! Christina was just awesome explaining the history of Mykonos and the sites we were seeing! It was a wonderful combination of riding in the coach bus and walking!! She was lovely, entertaining and just an amazing guide!!

Our guide Andrea was very informative and made the tour better than it could have been otherwise. She was also very helpful to provide suggestions for other things to do while in Mykonos. The tour was mostly passengers from the cruise ships and a group of about 20. She kept us all together and moving, while also being mindful that one person was a bit on the elderly side and slower than the rest of the group.
