Highly Recommend This Tour
Becky_S, May 2024
Matthew was fantastic! Very friendly, funny, enthusiastic and native. Which is a great combination for learning Mykonos history. He showed us the old town and the expanding areas on the island. He loves his homeland and showed us why. Highly recommend this tour!
Scientific tour with the professor and the assistant!?
Keiko_M, May 2024
Scientific jokes and talks leading to space mysteries and everybody joining in the talks was a very funny experience. Loved the walking tour of the town with knowledgeable guide and the beautiful white and blue narrow streets. Loved the jokes and the wit of the guide and all the other guests! A short time at the sea with snacks and wine provides by the operator was awesome. Thank you everybody for making this tour a wonderful one.
Fabulous Tour of Mykonos
Laurie_S, May 2024
Aris and Matthew were wonderful tour guides. We walked the town and visited the windmills and little Venice. We took a ride to the beach with Matthew and he had chairs for us to sit on and he had local snacks for us to eat. Just a wonderful tour. We highly recommend this tour. Enjoy!
Authentic and Genuinely Mykonian; Don’t miss this one!
Deborah_D, May 2024
Matt is everything we hoped for in a tour guide - personable, funny, and very proud to show off his home town to visitors. This was the most “unscripted” tour we took in our travels through Greece. The small tour (8 passengers) added to the feel of a happy family visit. It was a plus that we really enjoyed the company of our fellow passengers, but I guess that was an unplanned bonus! Final signature touches of a personal gift of spices and flowers from Matt’s garden warmed the heart and touched our inner Greek souls. Thank you, Matt!
Great!
Jeanne_B, May 2024
It was a wonderful, small group overview of the island. Aris was an excellent tour guide. He was attentive to what we wanted to do and was willing to adjust when needed. He gave recommendations of restaurants, etc. The meeting place and pick up option were very helpful. I would highly recommend this tour.
Very personal and cool tour around Mykonos
Vincent_F, May 2024
The tour operator and walking guide were amazing to be around and were great at what they do. Learning about Little Venice and a lot of different landmarks around Mykonos was an amazing time!
Unforgettable—Charming Mykonos
Cynthia_P, May 2024
Matthious was an outstanding guide! Lots of pride in his culture and work. Shared personal insight in to Mykonian life, very personable. Provided an extra special touch with homemade dishes, wine and lemonade in his family’s church.
Experience the highlights of Mykonos
Rashmi_C, Apr 2024
The tour qas a good mixture of walking downtown and traveling by SUV to see spots on the island. We visited the family church which added a personal touch. On the grounds we enjoyed a delicious snack and the best lemonade I have tried. We saw some goats, sheep and cows in the countryside. It was a very pleasant, low key, and relaxing experience.
Treated like family!
Edward_L, Apr 2024
Wow, two tours in one! The morning was spent wandering the narrow passage ways and streets learning of the culture and history of Mykonos. Then, just when we thought things were wrapping up our group was whisked away for a tour of the Mykonian countryside. Things just continued to get better when the excursion culminated with lunch on a private mountaintop with expansive views of the ports and beautiful Mediterranean. Thank you Matt for a delightful and memorable experience!
Fun, informative, creative tour!
LEBrewer310, Apr 2024
Wow this tour was phenomenal!! We were had Aris for the first part in town (altho it was a little frustrating because he talked very quietly and too fast. Don't catch much of his information ). But when Matthew picked us up, he was enthusiastic, spoke clearly and loud enough for all to hear in the mini-van. We visited the monastery and then stopped at a beach where Matthew put chairs and a table on the beach and set out assorted Greek snacks and wine (many things he made himself!!). A very fun, unusual and informative tour. Highly recommend!!
Loved Mykonos - thank you!
Loretta_R, Apr 2024
Great knowledgeable guide with awesome sense of humour, scenery is picturesque, genuine and authentic experience, felt our guide's passion and love for his island - one of the highlights of our Mediteranean holiday. Thank you!
Best Cultural Greecian Experience
Melissa_D, Apr 2024
What a wonderful cultural experience! Matt is a local with so much family history in Mykanos that getting around and learning about island was an experience I will never forget.
Beautiful tour
Mike_S, Apr 2024

Best tour this trip!
Jerri_L, Apr 2024
Our guide Matheious Kousathanas was the best and our driver as well. He showed us his culture and his family church where he provided us with an array of Greek food ( he prepared) that we all snacked on! Highly recommend his and this tour
Superb trip!👍🏻😃😃
Robin_G, Oct 2023
The picnic on a beach was great. Our guide was super. We really enjoyed our time with him, he shared lots of great information.
Best tour ever!
MariaGermelyn_Y, Oct 2023
This was the best experience we’ve had. Our tour operator is very friendly. And our lunch! Omg! So good. He made the dishes and made his own wine. We had lunch at the beach, very relaxing and was able to get to know other guests from our tour group. Definitely a must try tour. You will not regret it.
Myconian Experience.
Dee_K, Oct 2023
Matthew & Aris we’re very enjoyable. Fun to learn of their island and how far back their family roots go. Love that they are holding onto their history by sharing it w/ others. Matthew made a big effort w/ our snack and beach time. Sharing his local food & drink, things from his personal garden, etc…. Good job! Thank you for the experience! Highly recommend.
Highly recommended Mykonos tour
Christopher_M, Oct 2023
Are you interested in learning about Mykonos from a local? This is the tour for you, as we visited local towns and enjoyed a quit respite on a beach with local food. Highly recommended
Enjoyable city.
Floyd_D, Oct 2023
Guides were good. Interesting and charming city. Homemade beach picnic was the highlight! Informative with good shops and restaurants.
Mykonian Treat
Cynthia_L, Oct 2023
I contacted Viator the evening before our tour when I realized that our ship wouldn't be docking in time for us to catch a tender and make the tour. Matthaios contacted me immediately and made arrangements to meet us at a later time and catch up to the tour. In addition, he brought us to a lovely beach and provided us all with a lovely spread of foods he grew and prepared from home to give us a taste of his heritage.
