Full description
Climb aboard in the new port of Tourlos on the north-west coast of Mykonos and cross the Aegean Sea to the neighboring island of Tinos to experience the authentic culture and traditional hospitality of Greece. Explore the namesake capital to see one of the most important churches in Greece at the Panagía Evangelístria, built around a miraculous icon to the Virgin Mary. Then, travel up to the women's monastery of Kechrovouni high in the mountains to get stunning views of the surroundings. Stroll through the traditional village of Volax to see the basket weavers at work and stop to take souvenir photos of the Venetian-era dovecotes in the valley. Marvel at the marble arts of Pyrgos and get some free time to enjoy a coffee in the shade of a plane tree on the main square before the return boat trip to Mykonos.

Highly recommend booking this day trip. Only hiccup I had was the voucher said to be at the port for 11:15am meet up. However when I called because no one was there yet, they said noon meet up. Regardless of that, the guide was very friendly, informative and really knew his stuff. Amazing time seeing so much of Tinos that you couldn't do without private transportation. I did this trip solo and it was great meeting new people on the tour, all who were friendly and outgoing from all over the world. Can't rave enough. Book it!

Une visite très authentique et une guide, Valentina, passionnante de connaissance et très sympathique. Loin de l’ambiance survoltée de Mykonos, Tinos est une île aux paysages magnifiques et cette journée a été l’une de nos préférées dans les Cyclades.

La découverte de Tinos la superbe vaut vraiment le coup. Valentina est une super guide on a appris beaucoup de chose notamment sur l’église de Panagia et ses anecdotes. Le repas organisé dans la petite Taverne était très bon. Nous avons apprécier découvrir les artisans locaux notamment la confection de panier en osier et l’épluchage de câpres ;) dommage que le couvent soit fermé car nous sommes persuadée que Valentina et son amour de l’île de Tinos nous aurait encore appris plein de choses. Merci à elle et au chauffeur c’était top nous recommandons grandement :)
