Board a shuttle and then a ferry to cross from the tender pier in Mykonos to the ancient site of Delos. Delos was the mythical birthplace of Apollo — God of light and music — and his twin sister Artemis. These were the children of Zeus and Leto. The sacred island is uninhabited, but its earliest settlements date to the 3rd millennium BC.
The ruins of Delos are numerous and significant — the Sanctuary of Apollo complex, the area of the Sacred Lake (which dried up in 1926), the Terrace of Lions, the sanctuaries on Cynthus, the theater district, and the commercial harbor district.
A walking tour will enable you to see one of the most revered sanctuaries of antiquity.
Notes:
Tour requires a great deal of walking. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Tour includes a 45-minute ferry ride each way. Use of an audio headset (included) will enhance your tour experience.
