MORNING : DELOS (Seat on Boat)

Visit one of the most important archaeological sites of Greece : The ancient sacred island of DELOS !

Only a 45 minute boat ride away from Mykonos, Delos was the centre of the Cyclades in the ancient world, the island of light, birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, home to the first multicultural civilization and trade.

There is a lot to see: having been inhabited between 2500 and 69 b.C. Delos boasts of many treasures remaining from these times like the ancient market place “Agora”, the famous terrace of the Naxos lions, the holy lake, the ancients living quarters and theatre that give you a lively vision of the daily life then; especially the houses of Dionysos, Cleopatra, the Trident, the Masks, the Dolphins with their mosaics are a fantastic experience of art not to be missed.

Furthermore there are the Temple of Isis, the Egyptian goddess, the Roman water system and cisterns and the wonderful museum with plenty of breathtaking mosaics, statues and many more objects found during the excavations. 

On our guided tour you depart at 10am from the old pier in Mykonos Town and you return at 1.30pm. If you wish to remain a little bit longer you can also take the last boat back at 3pm: you may wish to climb on Mount Kynthos to enjoy the view over all the surrounding Cycladic islands.
