Explore Mykonos on foot and by car in a half-day small-group tour that covers Chora’s alleys, windmills, Little Venice and a village snack with tsipouro—plus a swim stop on one of the island’s crystalline beaches.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the shaded lane and the Aegean light hits whitewashed walls—the old town’s alleys narrow and open like pages in a guidebook. A local guide threads you through cobbled passages toward the windmills that turn into the Meltemi, and the sea beyond dares you to swim.
