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.”

It is very clear that Christina is exceptionally proud and passionate about her home and shared an absolute wealth of information with us. Christina was very accommodating of my father’s mobility challenges and adjusted wherever possible to accommodate him. Would definitely recommend this tour!”

From your cruise port, ride an air-conditioned bus to Elia Beach for swimming, sunbeds, and watersports, then continue to Mykonos Town. Hosts such as Elsa and Christina share island tips, though this is mainly a convenient beach transfer with self-guided town time.

“This was the perfect excursion if you want to go to a nice beach on the island. Our guide met us just outside the exit of the docks. He then escorted us to the bus and provided good information about the area while driving to the beach. Once at the beach, they had arranged special pricing for the beach chairs and umbrellas which was great for us. We got front row chairs and enjoyed the service provided at the beach as well as the water. The excursion included a stop at the little town of Mykonos, but we opted to skip that and stay in the bus back to the…”
