Wonderful tour! From the bus tour of the lighthouse to our wonderful tour guide in the walking tour. We enjoyed George so much and had the most wonderful meal of our trip

This was the perfect way to see Athens. Our driver was very hospitable, very knowledgeable, and made sure everything went smoothly. We got to see all of the sites and learn the incredible history of the Greeks and Athens. Lunch was delicious. I highly recommend this tour and the driver, Paddy!

    We had to change our dates and the administrative person was very helpful. They also did a good job on making sure we met up with the guides. The guides were excellent, very pleasant and well informed.

    First time visiting. Mykonos, more than Mythology, it’s a unique place to have a vacation time. An historical place full of History for mankind…!!

    Difficult to find.

    Jeannie_M, Jun 2026
    It was very difficult to find the guide; confusing; I went to three different vans mistakenly. Very frustrating considering that the weather was very hot.

    The driver on the mini bus tour was great and we really enjoyed all the knowledge he shared. The walking tour guide was very hard to understand when he did stop and talk. We didn’t enjoy this part of the tour at all. Would have liked more information with a someone that spoke better English.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Dear Laura, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the minibus tour and appreciated the knowledge and insights shared by your driver.

    Enjoyed our tour in Mykonos! Wish the walking tour would have been first and the driving part second due to the crowds and the heat. We saw a lot and Marina was as great!

    Amazing

    Niurca_J, Jun 2026
    Our tour guides were wonderful. I learned so much about the history. They were very good. Enjoyed it so much. Highly recommended.

    Best day ever in Mykonos!

    Regina_C, Jun 2026
    Excellent day exploring Mykonos Town and the whole island! Our guides Marina and Nikoka were terrific and so informative! Marina took us to the oldest bakery on the island-it was amazing!! Everything about the day was perfect!

    Great tour! Ask for George!

    Kelly_M, Jun 2026
    Wonderful tour! From the bus tour of the lighthouse to our wonderful tour guide in the walking tour. We enjoyed George so much and had the most wonderful meal of our trip

    A very pleasant few hours with lovely guides

    TracyJ_H, Jun 2026
    The walking tour section was excellent. Earlier in the morning so the streets of Mykonos town were quiet, we could explore with ease. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and very easy to understand. The bus tour guide was also excellent, very personable and informative but we felt that the stops were too short and therefore lacked any real purpose. It would have been nice to skip one of the stops and have longer at one of the others and have a short amount of free time to explore, grab a drink or something.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Dear Tracy, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the experience overall and will also take your comments about the bus stops on board for future improvements. We hope to see you again on another tour. Kind regards, Natalia Vexperio

    Great Experience!

    Great time touring Mykonos. Very informative and friendly! Loved the bakery tour and strolling the back alleys.

    Danielle_B, May 2026
    The tour was advertised as a drive your first then walking tour. When we got there we were told we were walking first. We were rushed through town with no time to shop or explore anything. We were told several times we had to hurry. When we were done walking there was no time to eat either. We left the rest of the tour and never went on the bus portion.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Dear Danielle, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations and that the pace of the tour felt rushed for you. Our Mykonos tour is designed specifically for cruise ship guests and operates within a limited 4-hour timeframe so passengers can comfortably return to their ship on time. Within that schedule, we do our best to include as many of the island’s highlights as possible while keeping the tour running smoothly for the entire group. We would also like to clarify that the tour itinerary does not include dedicated free time for shopping or a meal stop, and that the order of the tour may occasionally be adjusted depending on traffic, weather, or port conditions on the day. This information is shared in the tour description at the time of booking, in the meeting instructions sent by us prior to the tour, and again in the reminder message sent one day before the excursion. That said, we genuinely regret that the experience did not feel enjoyable and relaxing for you. Guest satisfaction is very important to us, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. To help address your concerns personally, we have also reached out to you privately. Warm regards, Vexperio Team

    Walking tour was worth it. Driving tour… meh

    Adam_H, May 2026
    Our tour guide George led us expertly throughout the cozy, beautiful, and bougainvillea strewn streets to an ancient bakery shop in business since the early 1400s in the same family as well as the iconic windmills and Little Venice. The van tour afterwards started with a trip to a lighthouse point with a spectacular view. The rest of the 2 hour drive was not worth the time. Would have rather sat in patio cafe in Little Venice looking out at the clear water.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Dear Adam, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your shore excursion in Mykonos, and we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the walking portion with George. It’s great to know you appreciated exploring the charming streets, the historic bakery, and the iconic windmills and Little Venice. We’re sorry to hear that the driving segment of the tour felt less engaging for you. This itinerary is designed to combine a guided walking experience in the town with a short vehicle section, which allows us to reach viewpoints such as the lighthouse and other areas that aren’t accessible on foot. We understand this balance may not suit every travel style, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. We hope to have the chance to welcome you again for a future experience that better matches your preferences.

    Susan_L, May 2026
    It is a very comprehensive tour of Mykonos. We traveled over most of the island during the minivan tour & then walked all through Mykonos town. A great overview for first timers to the island. Our tour guides Nickolas & Marina were both fantastic!

    Great tour

    Cynthia_H, Apr 2026
    This was a great overview of the island of Mykonos. Our driver and guides were very helpful. The communication was very good before the tour as to where to meet. We would definitely do this tour again.

    Little Venice is a must see

    TimSchelwat, Oct 2025
    What a great way to spend an afternoon! If you love taking pictures, Mykonos is a must see! This tour provided everythint you'd want to capture through your lenses. *We did not have this issue personally, but if you have trouble walking or getting around, this excursion would be too much for you.

    Wonderful tour and guides!

    Kathleen_P, Oct 2025
    The tour guides were top notch and took us to the most lovely and important sites. A great tour if you don’t have a lot of time to explore on your own!
