2.Mykonos Small Group Tour for Cruise Passengers — Port Pickup

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 597 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $120Top rated

Ride in an air-conditioned vehicle from your cruise ship with a guide such as Terry, Chris, Tolis, or Stelios. Visit Armenistis Lighthouse, Ano Mera, two beaches, Mykonos Town, Paraportiani Church, the windmills, and Little Venice. Groups can reach 14 people, with time for photos and some flexibility.

“The tour was okay but the "admission" to Little Venice is misleading as this is an open area that anyone can walk through with shops and restaurants. And the "admission" to the Church of Paraportiani didn't apply as we didn't even stop here. It was nice to be escorted through town and see other areas of the island, but not sure it was worth the price and the description is misleading.”

“We had 12 travelers & they were able to accommodate our group in a very nice van. They were also able to shift to an alternative port pick up at the last minute when there was a power outage at the main port with the funicular. Our guide was able to show us the whole island, avoid the crowds & do a wine tasting all in 6 hrs. Fabulous day! Definitely recommend doing a private tour with them on Santorini. Very worth the price! Slight hiccup at the end of the day with a super long line for the funicular due to the earlier power outage & 5 cruise ships…”
