Delos, once a Sacred Island, is the legendary birthplace of the Sun God Apollo and his twin sister Artemis. For 500 years, tiny Delos was the religious & commercial hub of the entire Aegean, today, the only remaining inhabitants are its treasured ruins and their caretakers.

Depart from the port of Mykonos by boat, cruising along the western coast of Mykonos, through Diles & Rhenia Islands to the ancient harbour of Delos where you will begin your guided walking tour.

You will first see Agora and beyond it, the Sacred Way, which leads you to the Temple of Apollo.

Next, view the remains of a Hellenistic Quarter with its harbour, water house, luxurious villas, such as the House of Cleopatra, the House of the Dolphins, the house of the Masks and the House of Dionysos, as well as remains of other notable quarters.

Note the architecture and mosaic floors, which have survived over 2500 years. Continue on and marvel at the spectacular Avenue of the Lions, where five Naxian marble beasts from the 7th Century BC crouch, vigilant guardians of the sacred lake, standing dry today.

You'll then re-board your boat for the return journey to Mykonos Town. Here you'll walk along the cobblestone streets of this famous island with the numerous shops, cafes and restaurants.
