Ioannis showed us a wonderful time around his island! He was extremely personable and immediately made us feel like friends. We quickly learnt about Greek history and cultural aspects of Mykonos and he even treated us to Greek coffee & pastries. Ioannis created the perfect day in Mykonos for us & we would highly recommend him as your guide! Lainie & Alan SimsA Memorable Day!

Booked the Mykonos Kickstart tour well in advance of our trip. Several days before, our guide, Iannis, cancelled us and we were rebooked with Georgia. the day before, Georgia cancelled and rebooked us with another Georgia who called in sick the morning of the tour. Our driver, Nikos, gave us a nice drive around the area and was generous with his time. Very disappointed in With Locals. Should have booked with Viator who gave us an amazing tour later in the week. Disappointing

Yannis is the perfect host for this beautiful town; from the communication when booking, to giving excellent restaurant advice, to being flexible with our boat schedule, and this was all before the tour even started. We were only in Mykonos for a few hours and Yannis helped us make the most of it by showing us both the well known sites you have to see when you visit as well as some of the secret gems only a local would know about. He was the perfect combination of friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible. As you walked through the tiny winding streets with Yannis every few yards another local will step out of their shop to say hello - our son asked if he was a celebrity! We highly recommend Yannis, he is incredibly proud of his home and was extremely welcoming. Thank you Yannis for providing our family the perfect day! We are a family of 4 (our kids are 16 & 19).The perfect Mykonos tour

This was one of the worst tours we have ever taken (out of hundreds). It started with Ioannis being late. As a guide, he was completely disengaged and told us next to nothing. It could have been called “wandering past a bunch of shops with someone who obviously didn’t give a sh**.” Awful experience. We cut the “tour” short because, why bother?This was truly awful …

🇬🇷 Mykonos with Loannis was wonderful! He was so kind to meet us where our Ship dropped us off and also drop us right back so we could stay longer and enjoy the island till the last minute! He took us through the old town and explained the significance of each part as well as giving us wonderful insight to the surrounding islands too! Loannis was so generous with his time taking us to restaurants and shops that were friends of his giving us a truly wonderful Greek experience!! We started the day with Loannis the tour guide and left with Loannis Our Greek friend! He was fantastic! 👌⭐️⭐️😊Unbeatable experience!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yannis was a genuine local and we definitely got a local experience. He was really generous and genuine host. It was like visiting Mykonos with a friend. All of the recommendations have been so appreciated. If you have the opportunity, we say ‘take it!’Local in Mykonos

Melissa was just incredibly helpful, right from the onset of the tour as she helped us navigate my husband's delayed ferry from Delos. The 3 things that jumped out- 1. She is ever ready to assist on any topic. 2. She throws her heart into things to make sure we have a comfortable tour. 3. She also personalized the tour making it more meaningful. Would recommend her in a heartbeat!"Was incredibly informative with a very relaxed vibe..be"

We had trouble getting off the ship and Melissa immediately jumped in her car and met us at the port. We were thrilled with her tour and how she knew so many people. Even better was how she joined us for drinks after and talked even more about the food and culture of the island. Afterward we spent time walking around and shopped. It was so easy after the time she spent with us."Melissa is amazing"

Prior to the tour, Melissa got in contact with me several times to remind and confirm our tour and meeting place. I was terrible at getting back to her but she patiently waited on my sister and I. We had a wonderful walking tour with Melissa that included myself, my sister and an older couple. She was kind to accommodate each one of us that had different needs and wants. For instance, the older couple were quite slow and she waited for them and was so kind and patient to them. Also, my sister was more interested in shopping, I was more interested in the sights and Melissa made sure to do both for us. She gave thoughtful explanation and history of Mykonos, you would think she was from there but she is not. But the best part of the tour was at the end of it where she brought us to her favorite bar for drinks. :) "Must-Do/Must-See Tour"

Yannis is a great person to show you around his home of Mykonos. He is able to show and tell you all about the island from his unique perspective of a being a local with years of history. In our short time there we learned a lot and made a new friend. We definitely recommend touring with Yannis in Mykonos.A Wonderful Walkabout Mykonos

The first Georgia could not make it and then we had another Georgia that turned up. The eventual guide was nice but did not realize it was a tastings tour and we had to clarify that. She did apologize after checking. Overall, we did not have the gelato and not sure what else was to have been in the 10 tastings. We had water (is this counted?) 5 sweets, gyros, Greek coffee and a liqueur. No Ten Tastings

We took both a walking and driving tour of Mykonos. While the guides were friendly and showed us some great spots, they were quite young and didn’t provide much historical detail, but it was a pleasant way to see Mykonos.Tour o Mykanos

We were looking for a tour that would make the most of our Mykonos day-trip and Ioannis made it happen! His extensive knowledge and family ties to the island made it easy to see all the most beautiful, unique, and historic sites within our short timeline - even making sure we had time to experience traditional Greek treats and coffee! We am so grateful for this truly special experience and will remember it forever. Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ Ioannis! 🙏🥰🇬🇷Ioannis is the Best!

Yannick was a wonderful host! He provided a wonderful walking tour with lots of history knowledge! The food tastings were exactly what we were hoping for and in a perfect location. He provided us with lots of information for the remainder of our trip as well. Thank you for a great tour!A Perfect Day in Mykonos

Georgia was a wonderful tour guide. She was so accommodating, as we ended up having extra time in Mykonos, and we booked her last minute. She gave us an outstanding walking tour of Mykonos - taking us to all the "most interesting" places (windmills, shops, etc). Georgia was extremely personable and showed us what we could have never done on our own. I highly recommend Georgia for your tour! OUTSTANDING TIME WITH GEORGIA!

My brother and I didn't feel like we got 10 tastings of Mykonos. We did get to see a very cool local bakery, the windmills, and some good places to circle back to but overall we didn't really need a guide for it. He did take lots of pictures for us so that was a plus. Decent Experience

Amber🇺🇸 United States

Overall, I would say we enjoyed our time with Georgia. The activity stated that this experience would include 10 tastes of Mykonos within a two hour timeframe. We started with five different pastries at a local bakery, followed by souvlaki for lunch, and ended with our choice of coffee at a café down by the inlet in just a little over an hour. Georgia also gave us an airplane bottle with an aperitif to take home and drink at a later time. She gave us lots of culture and recommendations to explore on our own, but the experience left something to be desired. I would say you could do this on your own and get lots of recommendations from the people working in the shops, as everyone is extremely welcoming and friendly. I don’t believe the value or the amount of food we got was worth this money that we spent. Short but informative

It was really nice to walk around with Ioannis through the town of Mykonos. We had some nice local delicacies. And ended with a nice big greek lunch. Ioannis even showed us his personal church where his ancestors are remembered every year. It was truly more than a food tour. More than just a l food tour!

Yannis is a great local guide who took us to the best little quaint and historic shops and stops. We had the best Greek frozen yogurt thanks to his recommendation! We covered most of Mykonos and didn't get lost because of him! He is so warm he even invited us to his cute little house (we were too shy to take his offer!) You'll cover a lot of ground with Yannis. Yannis be our guest next time! Your warm welcome in Mykonos!

Great day out with Yannis. He designed a private day tour for me and my wife and we got to see things we would not have even known about by ourselves. Yannis is not a "professional" tour guide, but this is actually good as it leaves a lot of flexibility in what we can do. Another benefit - he knows everyone on Mykonos ! A bit expensive, but that is Mykonos - nothing is cheap on the Island :) and for basically a full day tour it is OK I would certainly recommend Yannis without hesitationYannis in Mykonos

Yannis was the best host! He took us through several streets which we would have gotten lost in, if we were in our own. He took us to several sites we wanted to see. Yannis waited for us girls to shop without rushing us… He bought us coffee and pastries too. By the end of the day we felt we were with a friend . I would highly recommend Yannis for his professionalism, knowledge and kindness! Thank you! Tell Yannis we will be back!Great host in mykonos!
