We enjoyed the excursion and learned a lot of new things about Milos. We were taken around in a comfortable bus, and water was provided during the trip. We recommend this tour if you want to learn more about the island itself and visit various local spots around it.

Giannis was our tour guide and driver. He was so informative and provided such a comprehensive tour of Milos. His passion for Milos was amazing and he did a great job showing us the highlights of the island. I highly recommend this tour.

Full description

Our trip begins from Papafragas or the 'volcanic swimming pool' where we will wonder for a while at this picturesque location, where you can look down into the clear turquoise waters.
Milos played a crucial part in the pre-history of the Cyclades and specifically Phylakopi that is our next stop. We will introduce you this prehistoric position which remained an active settlement until 1000 BC.

A short drive from Phylakopi takes us to the famous Sarakiniko, the unique 'Lunar Landscape'. The beautiful spot is one of the island's many geological wonders and perhaps one of the most photographed places in Cyclades! We will take a walk down the inlet so you can experience this one of a kind beach and take some photos.

From there we will travel the road along the northern coast towards the picturesque Plaka and its cobbled streets and alleys. In the capital of Milos you will have the time to admire its traditional architecture and its stunning view of the sea from the veranda of Panagia Korfiatissa.

The next stop is at the marble Roman Amphitheatre.
