Description

Explore Mykonos’ hidden gems on a scenic private island tour. Visit the historic Armenistis Lighthouse, discover quiet coastal spots, and explore the traditional village of Ano Mera.
Your tour begins at the starting point of your choice—whether at the lobby of your hotel or at the cruise dock—where our professional team will meet you before setting off on a scenic journey around the island’s coastline and countryside.

Passing by Agios Stefanos Beach and Houlakia Beach, your first stop will be at Faros Armenistis, Mykonos’ historic lighthouse built in 1891 after a tragic shipwreck. Overlooking the Aegean Sea, it offers breathtaking panoramic views along with an interesting local folktale. Here you’ll have time to take photos and enjoy the endless blue.

Continuing your journey, you’ll pass through Marathi, one of the island’s more rural areas that still preserves Mykonos’ traditional spirit. On the way to the next stop, you’ll also see Ftelia Beach and Palaiokastro—one being among the island’s largest beaches and the other home to the ruins of Mykonos’ old castle.

As you pass Palaiokastro, you’ll reach Ano Mera Village, though your stop there will come later. First, you’ll follow the road towards Divounia, a small, semi-abandoned fishermen’s settlement located between Kalafatis and Agia Anna beaches. Here you’ll have time to explore the settlement or take a walk along Mykonos’ golden sands. During this stop, your tour leader will also serve you a light local snack—something every Greek has loved since childhood.

Finally, you’ll return to Ano Mera, where you’ll have free time to explore the village square, a traditional gathering place for locals and home to the Monastery of Panagia Tourliani. The monastery is a great choice for anyone wishing to learn more about the island’s religious traditions and cultural heritage, offering a glimpse into the spiritual life and history of Mykonos.

At the end of the experience, our team will return you to your starting point or drop you off in Mykonos Town, depending on your preference.

*The product description follows a route starting from the main cruise dock at the port. If your starting point of choice is anywhere else, our team will adjust the route accordingly. No location will be excluded due to any adjustments.*
