2 Days / 1 Night, Mykonos - Naxos - Mykonos While you are holiday-based on Mykonos, this is a wonderful opportunity to explore nearby Naxos Island, the largest island in the Cyclades. After all, you're enjoying your stay on the smallest of the group, so why not visit the largest! Naxos could not be more different from Mykonos; the one common thread between them are beautiful beaches galore. On Naxos, you'll find mountains and valleys, Venetian architecture, gorgeous interior villages, and outstanding archaeological sites. This excursion will allow you to make the most of your time and see the best that the island has to offer! Day 1 Our Mykonos representative will transfer you to the port for your ferry departure to Naxos. Upon arrival, you will be met and transfered to your hotel for your one overnight. Take advantage of your free time on this day to begin to explore the large and very impressive main town, with its beautiful Venetian architecture, and lovely beaches within easy walking distance. Dinner this night will combine great food with low prices; and since Naxos is a farming island, you'll be assured of fresh products. Overnight. Day 2
You continue on to visit some of Greece's best preserved monuments of the early Christian period, with the Panagia Drociani, dating to the 6th century. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy a fascinating drive up a winding mountain road to the "Marble Village," sitting at an altitude of 600 meters (1800 feet) . Here there will be a stop for one hour to take in the beautiful scenic landscapes and visit 3 museums (archaeological, geological, and folkloric). Also, you will be privileged to view the traditional citrus distillery, still in operation today, and the Faneroneni Monastary that holds a rich library and rare icons. The tour will end at 17.00 back in Chora, where you will board the ferry for your return to Mykonos.
2 Days / 1 Night: Mykonos - Paros (1 night) - Mykonos A lovely opportunity to take a break from your holiday on Mykonos and enjoy a brief change of scenery, though not necessarily a less intensive atmosphere of beach bumming and lively nightlife. Here however, we'll offer you a choice of one of several very different excursions, all offered only on Paros, that we think will definitely add to your overall holiday enjoyment. You can choose to take our full-day guided tour of the island with air-conditioned coach; it includes all of the major sights of the main town Parikia, the interior of the island, and the charming town of Naoussa. Or, if you love to walk, you can take our walking tour of the beautiful interior of the island. You'll experience magnificent landscapes, with nature at your fingertips. Your third option is to explore the Cave of Antiparos and to have a look at the busy little port town. Andiparos has lately become the favored destination of a number of Hollywood movers and shakers. Day 1
If you have opted for the tour to the Valley of the Butterflies, you'll take that this afternoon. You'll still have time tomorrow to take a second excursion ... perhaps to Andiparos? Overnight. Day 2 After breakfast, you will join whichever tour you have chosen for today. At the end of the tour, you'll return to the main port of Parikia and be ready to board the ferry for your return to Mykonos.
3 Days / 2 Nights: Mykonos - Santorini (2 nights) - Mykonos This is a marvelous excursion allowing you to add an extra island during your stay on Mykonos. And what better island to add than magical Santorini. With two nights on the island, you will have the opportunity to explore Fira Town, catch the famous sunset in Oia, and have a tour of the ancient settlement of Akrotiri. Or, spend a day on the sea surrounding the volcano, walking to its center, swimming in the hot springs of a nearby islet, and exploring the tiny island of Thirassia. Day 1 In the early afternoon, meet our representative and transfer to the port of Mykonos for your departure to Santorini. Upon arrival there, you will be met by our local representative and taken to your hotel. In the late afternoon, you can join our excursion (optional extra) to the village of Oia, driving along the picturesque coastal road, poised high over the caldera. You will have the opportunity to explore this beautiful village, with its outstanding architecture and lovely shops and galleries. Get yourself settled in a lovely cafe along the caldera and drink in the magic of the most famous sunset in the world. Fifteen minutes after the sunset, you'll be taken back to Fira Town, where you can enjoy the evening exploring the shops and nightlife of the town. Overnight. Day 2
If history and antiquities thrill you to bits, then you will love the guided excursion of Akrotiri, the site of ongoing excavations to enearth the well-preserved 3,000 year-old city buried under the volcanic ash. If natural landscape is your passion, then you can take the tour that we offer into the interior of the island. You'll see that there is more to Santorini than just sunsets and volcanos! Overnight. Day 3 In the morning, you'll have some time to do some last-minute shopping and to have a last look at the caldera, before your boat departs for Mykonos.
