This combo activity sweeps through the medieval town of Mykonos also known as the “chora”. Mykonos is famous for being a cosmopolitan island due to the lifestyle and the variety of visitors all around the world. Mykonos’ traditional way of life is dearly reflected within its city limits, inside which we offer an authentic walking tour throughout some often unappreciated sites by many of its visitors. We offer you an opportunity of a lifetime to experience first-hand the true beauty of the Mykonian town, by walking you through its history and re-living some of its memories. The wonderful walk through the unknown alleys and the secret corners of Mykonos town, begins at 09:00 after you have been collected from your pick-up location (usually your hotel or the cruise-ship port).

The adventurous part of this tour starts at 12:00 where you will arrive at the village of Ano Mera, pass through the picturesque square, and visit the monastery of Panagia Tourliani. “We then continue by walking only 400 metres to the Mykonian Farm where we will be greeted by the Farm’s superintendent who will guide us through the territory, recounting the history of the places while showing us how the organic and the animal farming operates.

Later, while sitting and relaxing on a traditional stone-built couch, we will learn the history of the island’s farming, its livestock, and its crops. As part of this storytelling, there will also be a short presentation on the island’s wine history, highlighting its long-standing viticulture traditions, local grape varieties, and winemaking techniques. During the storytelling of the Mykonian traditional farming habits, for anyone who is interested, a Snack or Lunch option is offered with special local products from the traditional farm (bread, tomatoes, kopanisti, cucumbers, and poor man’s black olives).
