Half-Day Delos Tour from Mykonos

Seize the opportunity to take a trip back in time and visit the island of Delos, the most famous and sacred of all islands in antiquity. According to Greek mythology, Apollo, god of light - the sun, and Artemis, goddess of the moon, were born on Delos - infamous birthplace of Light, which the Greeks always regarded as precious.

Included with the services of a professional guide, we bring you to the heart of a destination that will be an unforgettable experience. An entire ancient city awaits the visitors: the Stoa of Phillipe, the Propylaia, the Collosus of the Naxians and the Temples of Apollo are the monuments everyone will admire before the last stop in front of the Sacred Lake and the eternal Naxian Lions.

Enjoy a guided introduction to the mythological, prehistorical and historical background of the island. Explore through the narrow streets of the Hellenistic City of the 4th century BC, and reach the impressive house of Dionysos.

Exceptional mosaics, well preserved marble columns and amazing wall paintings are just a few of the featured highlights of a rich man's house. Few meters beyond we admire Cleopatra with her statue decorating its entrance.

After a short stop at the house of the Trident, we reach the Theatre of Delos and the public cistern of the city. This is the end of the route in the urban side of the city; we now roll down walking on the main street to return to the market and the Sanctuary zone.

The Stoa of Phillipe, the donations of ancient celebrities, the Propylaia, the Colossus of the Naxians and the Temples of Apollo are the monuments we admire before our last stop in front of the Sacred Lake and the eternal Naxian Lions.
