Private Mykonos Town & Delos Island Tour from the Cruise Port

This private tour pairs the two things worth doing on a Mykonos port day: the whitewashed town — the windmills, Little Venice and the maze of lanes — and a boat across to Delos, the sacred island and one of Greece's greatest archaeological sites. Your guide walks you through the town, then joins you for the short crossing and the ruins of the ancient city. It suits travellers who want history and atmosphere in one day. Total time is about 6 hours, timed to your ship's departure.

About this tour

A Mykonos port day is best split in two: the town, and Delos. This private tour does both — a guided walk through the windmills and lanes of Chora, then the short boat over to Delos, the uninhabited island that was once one of the most important sanctuaries in the ancient world.

Why you’ll make it back to the ship

We build the day around the Delos boat timetable and your ship’s departure, keeping a buffer for the crossing back. Guaranteed return to your ship is in writing on every booking, with a full refund if your ship cannot dock or anchor.
