Overview of your Mykonos tour:

I love this tour, and you will love it too, as it combines mythology, history, archaeology and unspoiled natural beauty. I have been giving tours on Delos since 2001 and I have also written a book about it! We'll visit an ancient town destroyed by pirates in 69 BCE and ever since left abandoned. But most importantly, Delos was, according to the mythology, the birthplace of god Apollo, the sun-god! We start by visiting a residential area (one of the five discovered so far) and we walk among ancient houses, shops, and workshops. And after visiting the theater, we proceed to the area of the temples. We see what remains of Apollo's temple and of his gigantic statue, while further down we come across the Slave Market (Delos became super rich thanks to the slave trade). Finally, we reach the famous Terrace of the Lions, where the tour ends. *Not recommended for people with walking difficulties, or people on a wheelchair.

Your Mykonos tour itinerary

- We meet at 09:30, and we take the Delos boat at 10:00, getting there in about 35 minutes. - We start by visiting the Theatre district, and we marvel at the ancient houses (house on 5th street, house of Dionysus, house of Cleopatra, house of the Trident). - We walk among houses, shops and workshops, we notice the town's almost perfect sanitary system, and we admire some mosaic floors. We visit the theatre and the near by huge public water cistern. - After that, we take the Sacred Way that leads to the area of the temples. We pass by the Stoa of Philip V, and soon we arrive before the ruins of Apollo's temple; the remains of his gigantic statue lay further down. - Next, we see the big Slave Market, and the adjacent Sacred Lake, where according to the mythology god Apollo was born. - Finally, we admire those famed marble lions, the guardians of the lake.
