Mykonos walking tour:
Mykonos is world famous. It is the most cosmopolitan of the Greek Islands and attracts many visitors from all over the globe, including large numbers of artists and intellectuals. Your coach will take you to "Chora", the island's capital where you will enjoy a walking tour in the narrow cobbled streets of the town, passing by chic boutiques, elegant nightclubs and white-washed houses until reaching Alefkandra. Alefkandra is a charming corner of Chora, known also as the "Venice" of Mykonos. The houses are built on the sea, with wooden balconies that evoke Venice. These were built from the mid. 18th century onward and were homes of wealthy merchants and captains. At Louis Theoxenia Hotel, you will enjoy the atmosphere while drinking your refreshment accompanied by Greek "meze" (appetizers). You will return then to Mykonos Town (Hora) from where you will take the ship's shuttle service back to the port to meet your ship.

Mykonos by night with dinner and show:
Internationally famous for its hot, endless summer days and sultry sleepless party nights where crowds dressed in the latest fashion or wearing as little as possible for comfort, gyrate in rhythm to the sounds of music spreading like a wave across the white washed narrow streets of town. Join a specially designed tour of Mykonos by night and experience an unforgettable evening ashore with dinner in a local Greek tavern, full of colour and ambience as only Mykonos knows how to capture the visitor's expectations. Enjoy authentic native dishes and wine. For your entertainment, a folkloric presentation will take place during dinner. Join the revelry and partake in the dancing or simply clap your hands in rhythm to the music.

Delos - Apollo Sanctuary:
Delos, once a Sacred Island, is the legendary birthplace of the Sun God Apollo and his twin sister Artemis. For 500 years, tiny Delos was the religious & commercial hub of the entire Aegean. Today, the only remaining inhabitants are the keepers of its treasured ruins. Depart from the port of Mykonos by boat, and sail along the western coast of the island, through Diles & Rhenia Islands, to the ancient harbour of Delos where you begin the guided walking tour. First you see Agora and beyond it, the Sacred Way, which leads to the Temple of Apollo. Next, you see the remains of a Hellenistic Quarter with its harbour, water house and luxurious villas, such as the House of Cleopatra, the House of the Dolphins, the House of the Masks, the House of Dionysos, and many other interesting buildings. Note the architecture and the mosaic floors, which have survived over 2,500 years. Continue and admire the spectacular Avenue of the Lions, where five Naxian marble lions from the 7th century B.C. crouch, vigilantly guarding the now dry sacred lake. Re-board the boat for the return journey to Mykonos town. Here you will have the chance to walk along the cobblestone streets of this famous island with its numerous shops, cafes and restaurants before you return to the port to re-join the ship.
REMARKS: Please note that the cruise from Mykonos to Delos is approx. 45 minutes.
Tour not suitable for passengers with walking difficulties.
