Private Tour Of Mykonos Beaches Villages And Scenery

We begin our journey with a scenic drive overlooking the beautiful Ornos Beach Resort, heading toward the coastal area of Agios Ioannis. Here, we will make a stop at the famous Agios Ioannis Resort area to take in the views looking out toward the sacred, historic island of Delos. You will get to see the picturesque small harbor, luxury high-end resorts, and exclusive local villas. You will also have the chance to go see the hidden Kapari Beach, a true local gem.

We then head toward the north side of the island. Along the way, we drive through the commercial side of Mykonos, where you can see where locals go daily for their shopping and everyday life, offering a glimpse into the authentic local lifestyle. Our destination is the historic Armenistis Lighthouse, which was built in 1891. We will stop to explore this iconic landmark, learn about its history, and take in the magnificent views of the Aegean Sea and neighboring islands.

We drive toward Agios Sostis, and on the way, we make a stop to capture the port and town of Mykonos from above for beautiful photos. We then head to Agios Sostis Beach, one of the most untouched and peaceful beaches on the northern side of Mykonos. Here, you will find a lovely traditional Greek chapel overlooking the water, offering a perfect spot to explore and take pictures. Just above the beach sits the legendary Kiki's Tavern, a world-famous open-air restaurant known for its rustic charm and authentic local character.

Next is Ftelia Beach, known for its beautiful, breezy coastline. As we drive along the bay, we will admire the natural landscape and the crystal-clear waters. We will also make a stop at a charming, traditional local chapel in the area, offering a wonderful opportunity to capture unique photos of the scenic northern coast of the island.

Next, we head to Ano Mera, the most traditional village in Mykonos. Here, you will have plenty of time to explore the charming village square at your own pace. Discover the wonderful local bakeries offering traditional pastries, browse the variety of souvenir shops for unique local crafts, or relax at one of the authentic taverns. It is the perfect place to experience the slower, authentic side of island life.

While in Ano Mera, a visit to the historic Monastery of Panagia Tourliani is optional but highly recommended. Built in 1542, this impressive landmark features striking Cycladic architecture, a beautiful marble bell tower, and an incredibly detailed, hand-carved wooden iconostasis (altar screen) from Florence. It offers travelers a unique chance to step inside a peaceful sanctuary and experience the deep religious heritage and artistry of Mykonos.

We continue our drive to Kalafatis Beach, one of the most famous and expansive sandy beaches on the island. Known for its beautiful waters, this area also features a charming, traditional old fisherman's bay where you can see local fishing boats. Up until recent years, this area was a traditional old fishing village, and it still retains its authentic coastal charm. We will make a brief photo stop here, giving you the perfect opportunity to capture the beautiful coastline, the historic fishing harbor, and the clear blue sea.

We conclude our tour at a spectacular panoramic viewpoint overlooking Chora (Mykonos Town). You will get a classic postcard view of the iconic white washed buildings, historic windmills, and the harbor below, perfect for final photos. Drop-off Options: You can choose to be comfortably driven back to your original pickup location, or you can choose to end your tour right here in Mykonos Town so you can explore its charming streets, shops, and restaurants further at your own pace.
