2.Discover Mykonos in 4 Hours: Beaches, Villages and Town

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 251 reviews · 4 hours · from $88

Spend two hours walking Mykonos Town with a guide such as Georgia, Renata, or Theo, then ride an air-conditioned van to Armenistis Lighthouse, Kalafatis Beach, and Ano Mera. The $88 tour is a strong first look at the island, especially for cruise passengers short on time. Expect uneven streets and plenty of walking.

“Theo was AMAZING! it is absolutely worth it to do the excursion. Without Theo I would have been lost because I am NOT Dora the explorer lol.”

3.Beach Escape and Free Time in Mykonos Town

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 227 reviews · 6 hours · from $28Best value

Take an air-conditioned bus from Mykonos port to Elia Beach for three hours of swimming and free time, then stroll Mykonos Town independently. English-speaking hosts such as Elsa, Dimitri, Andrea, and Lucy share island tips along the way. Sunbeds, food, drinks, and beach gear cost extra.

“Our guide Elsa was so lovely and helped us with the language using word association. she also pointed out where to eat and options for sightseeing. Elia Beach was beautiful and the facilities at the beach club were immaculate. Time in the Town went too quickly. I could have spent another hour there as we only saw a portion of the beautiful alley ways. Saki's was recommended by Elsa and didn't disappoint for Gyros and was a good price at 8 Euros. such a beautiful place and one of my favourite parts of our trip.”

4.For Cruise Ships: Beach Escape and Free Time in Mykonos Town

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 171 reviews · 4 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $28

Spend about three hours at Elia Beach, then choose two hours in Mykonos Town before returning to Tourlos. An air-conditioned bus, driver, and beach host handle the transport. Hosts such as Christina and Elsa share island tips, but this is mainly a convenient transfer, not a fully guided tour.

“Average experience, could have done it on your own. Driver and tour guide were good and polite. I think it is doable on your own.”

5.South Beaches Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 37 reviews · 6 hours · from $100

Sail from Mykonos’ new port on a traditional wooden caique with Christos and his crew. Visit Paraga and Super Paradise, swim from the boat or go ashore, and enjoy Greek food, drinks, and chilled wine. Strong winds can change the route, and Super Paradise gets crowded in summer.

“Although the crew were pleasant and welcoming (even though it was not advertised where the boat was very well), the over all 3 stars is due to the tour being an hour shorter than advertised (although 1.5 hours shorter if you count the time spent waiting for latecomers). The stops were lovely, and the food was a great portion and well cooked - pasta with shrimps and salad. However, I’m not sure why we sped all the way home, stopping at Little Venice for about 20 seconds. The ride back was so bumpy, and although we had a laugh getting splashed, even those who decided to sit at the back…”

6.From Mykonos Cruise Port: Old Town Visit and Beach Getaway

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 28 reviews · from $57

Meet the iTravel Mykonos team at your cruise terminal, ride an air-conditioned bus to Elia Beach, and enjoy three hours for swimming, snorkeling, or a taverna lunch. Then use your free time in Mykonos Town to see the windmills, Little Venice, Paraportiani church, shops, and cafés before returning to the port.

“We had a great time! The Elia beach was gorgeous and the sunbeds were reasonably priced and the restaurant service was pleasant. Incredible water at a perfect temperature. I did find after the fact that rides were available to the beach for less cost but it was so reassuring to know we had reliable transportation so overall it was well worth it.”
