Petros drove us a private 3 hr island tour. Instead of following the standard tourist guide, Petros took us to secluded beaches, breathtaking viewpoints, and charming corners of the island that many visitors never get to experience ending with the Armenia Lighthouse. The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about showing the "real" Mykonos rather than the famous party scene. We enjoyed hearing about the Greek hospitality professionals who reside in Mykonos for the summer tourist season. Petros also was the individual who picked us up promptly at the ferry upon arrival. The tour company is excellent with easy communication.

We had an absolute blast on the "Discover Mykonos in 4 Hours: Island Highlights Tour"! It is the perfect way to see the best parts of the island, especially if you are short on time.Our driver was absolutely amazing. From the moment they picked us up, they were welcoming, incredibly polite, and highly professional. They didn't just drive us around; they shared fascinating local insights, historical facts, and great stories about the island that made the whole experience so much richer. They also knew all the best photo spots and took amazing pictures for us!The vehicle was clean and very comfortable, and the itinerary was perfectly paced. If you want a stress-free, fun, and comprehensive tour of Mykonos with a fantastic guide, this is definitely the one to book. 10/10!
Very friendly driver trying hard to please. Anastasios made every effort to show us everything (even in the rain), and he is an excellent driver
We had a 4 hour tour in Mykonos with Anastasios. The pickup was easy at the port, Anastasios met us at the Old Port after our tender arrived. He was on time and had a clear sign stating which party he was picking up. Anastasios took us to the highlights of the island and it was great. The car was comfortable and spacious. He offered us water and snacks. During the tour he asked us where we wanted to go and what to see. I was very happy with the tour.
Driver and tour guide was Petros and he did a fantastic job showing us the best views of the island. He also took us to a monastery and was able to give us history and answer all our questions. He was a great person. Highly recommend this tour and driver/tour guide.
There were many great views it took you out of the area that was very touristy. There was a lot of interesting information shared.
We had a nice experience seeing Mykonos with our island tour. Highly recommend them. They were on time and showed us a great tour of the island.
This tour lasted about 4 hours. We had an opportunity to see so many beautiful scenic areas with the help of our wonderful guide, Kostas. He took us to a few areas where you would not find tourists. He was very helpful, thoughtful, kind, respectful, and so knowledgeable. He provided such a wealth of information about the island. Kostas right away offered us cold bottled water and later he gave us these delicious chocolate filled croissants. Boy, did they hit the spot!! What a treat! We saw the Light House, Little Venice, the Windmills, a monastery and museum, and of course some beach areas. Mykonos is truly exquisite. And the people we encountered were very friendly. At the end of our tour, Kostos offered to drive us to an area to view the sunset after our dinner, but we changed our plans that night. We went back to the cruise ship to rest and came back to Mykonos to watch the sunset but ate at a different restaurant. We walked around a little shopping area on the backside of Little Venice. There seemed to be too many people near Little Venice, so, we stayed away from that area. The staff at Orion Mykonos were very good about answering all of my questions prior to the tour and offered to make our dinner reservations for us. They told us what time the sunset will take place during May. Providing us with a lot of information before hand set our minds at ease. Setting us up with Kostas was even better. We took 3 private tours this week (May 17th - 23rd 2025) and he was by far the best. He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful; even a bystander mentioned it to me while he was waiting for us to view the beach. We enjoyed our private tour immensely and highly recommend Orion Mykonos and Kostas to show you around the ropes. If we ever go back to Mykonos, we will give them a call again. Truly loved it!!
I just wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for the incredible job you did as our tour guide. Your knowledge, enthusiasm, and attention to detail truly made the experience unforgettable. You went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt included and engaged, and your passion for what you do really shone through every step of the way. I’ll be recommending you to anyone I know who’s heading this way!
We had an unforgettable VIP tour around Mykonos and couldn’t be more pleased with the service! The luxury van was spotless, spacious, and air-conditioned perfect for a comfortable and stylish ride around the island. Our driver and guide was incredibly professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He didn’t just drive us from place to place; he shared fascinating stories, local insights, and hidden gems we would have never discovered on our own. He tailored the tour to our interests, whether we wanted beach time, shopping, local food, or panoramic views for photos. We visited both the lively hotspots of Mykonos and the more peaceful, authentic side of the island. The pace was relaxed but efficient, and we never felt rushed. If you’re visiting Mykonos and want a premium, personalized experience with a fantastic guide, this VIP tour is a must. Worth every euro!
It was interesting seeing the other side of the island, however, the tour guide did not really speak English and we needed to use Google translate. It was advertised as an English speaking tour guide. We did not get very much information on the sites that we saw rather we just were informed of the names of the places.i It was a nice touch to receive bottled water, pick up and drop off at our hotel, and we really enjoyed the pastries. The lack of an English speaking tour guide made this a little less enjoyable.
We were in Mykonos for business last weekend. We trusted Orion Mykonos Services to tour the island like a local and learn about their culture and way of life! The driver spoke good English and modified the itinerary according to our wishes! The Van that transported us was better than our expectations. Thank you very much for making our experience unique! We will meet again soon!
Thank you very much for the wonderful experience! We leave filled with beautiful pictures and memories! We hope to see you again
We had a tour in March with my wife. Our guide was excellent, providing us with information about everything we asked for. He also took us to places that were not included in the itinerary and so we managed to get to know even more parts of the island. We had a great time, and we hope to be able to return in the summer so that we can also enjoy the beaches of the island.
I wasn’t sure what to expect visiting Mykonos in February, but this 4-hour tour turned out to be the perfect way to explore the island! The guide was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about Mykonos’ history, culture, and daily life beyond the summer crowds. The tour took us to all the must-see spots, including the famous windmills, Little Venice, and Mykonos Town, where we had time to walk around and take photos. Traveling by van was super comfortable, especially in the cooler weather, and allowed us to see more of the island than we could have on our own. Even in the off-season, Mykonos had its own unique charm, and I’m so glad I took this tour. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Mykonos !
We booked the tour for February, it was available even though it was off-season. The experience was amazing. The guide picked me and my friends up from the hotel, showed us the island from end to end, and adjusted the tour program according to our requirements. He also showed us places that were off the program and it was something we really appreciated. The guide knew the history of the entire island, took us to the most Instagrammable places and took pictures of us like a professional. The vehicle was luxurious and very clean. Our experience exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend it and it is an experience that will stay with us and we hope to return in the summer.
They were amazing from picking us up to dropping us off, super on time, super friendly and made our trip amazing! Thank you
Great island tour, friendly staff full of smiles! I highly recommend it! I will prefer it on my next visit to the island! 🏝️🩵
