An amazing tour and guide. We really enjoyed the tour and the many sights we saw and history that the guide gave. We also enjoyed the treats at the end of the tour!! Traditional Greek food that was amazing. Even for a drizzly soggy day, we had a great time!

Great tour, especially in late October. Crowds are smaller and the weather is great. Only 6 people on the tour and our guide was great. He customized the tour for us, always checking on us. Saw a great variety of things -the sandy beach, the lighthouse, little Venice

Be a Mykonian

Anne_C, Nov 2025
What a beautiful day on Mykonos! We were lucky to have the best tour guide Matthaios. His knowledge of the island surpassed our expectations. His family has lived there over 300 generations so you get the most amazing tour because his love for Mykonos shines! Matthaios is an asset to Viatours and I would definitely tour with him again!

The experience was nice....

bharti_a, Oct 2025
The experience was nice. Guide was well informed & very nice. Even though the weather was not cooperative. It was raining but he still made it fun. He also brought some home made treats & drinks for us.

Exceptional Experience

Susan_P, Oct 2025
Matthew is from a multi generational Mykonian family. He brought us to the island highlights and also some beautiful off the beaten path places. He presents his rich knowledge of island history in a very entertaining way. Matthew even taught us a traditional Greek dance while we were at the beach!!

Wonderful tour and guide!

Aris our tour guide was unforgettable.

Cleta_V, Oct 2025
Our tour with Aris in Mykonos, Greece was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met him, his friendly personality and deep knowledge of the area made the experience unforgettable. Aris has a special way of bringing history and local culture to life — every story he told made us feel connected to the beautiful region of Mykonos. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. His recommendations for local food and hidden spots were spot-on, and you could tell he truly loves what he does. If you’re visiting Mykonos, don’t miss the chance to tour with Aris — he’s one of those rare guides who makes you feel like you’re exploring with a good friend.

10/10 would do again

Kaylie_R, Oct 2025
Tour Guide was incredibly Knowledgeable and the entire tour was fantastic. I would 10/10 do this again. She was very attentive at answering questions and ensuring nobody from the group was left behind. AMAZING experience.

Best way to see Mykonos

Stephanie_B, Oct 2025
This is the best way to see Mykonos. Left to your own devices, it’s easy to get lost in the winding back alleyways. Our guide, Aris, expertly took us to the best sites and the best photo spots. In addition, you leave old town to see more of the island, including a monastery and a very scenic lighthouse. We had great local snacks on the beach to round out a fun day. Aris was an excellent guide, very genuine and friendly with great English. Highly recommend!

Matt Rocks!

Laura_I, Oct 2025
Matt was an awesome guide! He brought homemade snacks and wine! Very personable and we saw a lot of the island.

Great immersive tour of Mykonos with excellent guides!

Lori_S, Oct 2025
This was such a wonderful experience for our party of 6 adults on a cruise stop in Mykonos. We met up with Aris by the port and did short walk around town. We saw Mykonos Town, Little Venice, and the windmills. He was very funny and taught us a lot about the area. We even got some greek beers at a little grocery store and then met up with Matthaios where the tour continued by vehicle. He drove us to some very beautiful vistas and answered all of our crazy questions. We stopped at a beautiful beach where he allowed us to try some greek snacks and wine that he made himself. So fun and we highly recommend. We hope to be back soon!

A great Mykonos experience!!!! Touring and food and wine!!

Pamela_K, Oct 2025
Wonderful, family run tour of Mykonos with true Mykonians. Picked up by the owner(prompt and great personality), then switched over to his coworker Aris, a super friendly, knowledgeable guide who gave us so much info about the island, people, and customs. Amazing! He was very attentive to the physical capabilities of our group of 6 seniors. He even made a stop at a grocery store and pointed out true Greek items. We got wine and greek alcohol. He took lots if pictures for us, took us to some not so touristy places, and then topped us off with wonderful homemade greek wine and tasting treats at a beach near the cruise port. Everything was so delicious!! He sent each couple home with some homemade food gifts too! Super fun and a great break from just "ruins". Beautiful island and great tour!

Highly recommend!

Paula_w, Oct 2025
Great tour! Very enjoyable! Guides were really kind, friendly and knowledgeable. They gave us a good overview of what life is like on Mykonos, past and present. The homemade snacks, wine and lemonade at the end were delicious and appreciated.

Take the tour - worth it!!!!

Maria_S, Oct 2025
Very knowledgeable, funny, and personable. Very attentive to all questions and needs. The personal snacks were just the right touch.

Fantastic tour of Mykonos with a small group.

AnneMarie_B, Oct 2025
Small group, no more than 8 people made it a very personal outing. The two tour guides, one in the city and one in the countryside, were very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. They covered the highlights of Mykonos and at the end even provided homemade goodies and a small parting gift! Very good experience and would highly recommend.

Good tour

Matthew_H, Oct 2025
Ares was an excellent guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable. Good tour of the Mykonos town and area.

Maureen_R, Oct 2025
It was just long enough taking in the main local sites. Our guide was funny, informative, answered questions, took photos. I couldn’t have asked for anymore!

bocaweiss, Oct 2025
Mathaios is an incredible guide- knowledgeable, entertaining, supplies hime-made snacks and treats, wine and lemonade, water and is one of the best guides we’ve ever experienced!

YES. Book it!

Jessica_A, Oct 2025
Aris our tour guide was the BEST! He took us all around the island and was so knowledgeable. When we booked I didn’t realize it was just going to be “us” in the tour and I’m so happy it was! We saw a lot of other tour groups that had 30+ people in it. Having this small tour was 10/10 the best. Sightseeing was great, the food and wine was great and our tour guide was even better. Can’t wait to go back!

Highly Recommend <3

Johanna_A, Oct 2025
Aries and Matthew were terrific guides: friendly, informative and super fun! I was fortunate enough to be in a group of three so i felt like we received extra attention and a personal touch. The conversation flowed and we shared parts of our lives with each other. Very special time in Mykonos!

Amy_W, Oct 2025
Mattheios was an incredible guide! His family history runs so deep here in Mykonos and he is very knowledgeable. It was wonderful to not only see Mykonos town, but also go to other parts of the island. We especially loved the snacks that he prepared himself for us! He also gave us great recommendations for restaurants to try for the rest of our time in Mykonos. Thank you, Mattheios, these memories will last us a lifetime.

robyn_t, Oct 2025
Ari gave us a walking tour thru Mykonos city center. He was very informative. Then Kosta, the driver, took us around various sites and finally to a beach where he brought food and house wine. It was a great day.

Best tour in Mykonos

Laura_V, Oct 2025
Visiting Mykonos was a great experience thanks to Matt. He was extremely patience and genuinely nice. He showed us all the must to see in Mykonos plus other places less crowded and very local! Thanks Matt!

Not what we were hoping for

Jill_N, Sep 2025
Unfortunately, this tour did not live up to our expectations. After reading the reviews, we had high hopes that we would learn a great deal about the island but that wasn’t quite our experience. The title of the tour is “Sightseeing like a Mykonian”. Our guide wasn't even from Mykonos. We felt like we were given the bare minimums on our tour. No in-depth info on much of anything.

Fun day on Mykonos

Marie_H, Sep 2025
We really enjoyed the walk around the town and our time at the beach. Costas was a fun and informative guide.

Great day in Mykonos

Karen_W, Sep 2025
We had a wonderful day exploring Mykonos with our guide Aris, who shared so much about the history of Mykonos along with stories about Greek culture. Our small group of 7 was the perfect size for this tour. The fresh Greek snacks and wine at the beach were delicious.
