Very beautiful island different from Mykonos. The tour in a comfortable mini bus with a good driver allows you to discover it serenely. The meeting at the new port is in front of the snack bar and not at the place described by GPS. Transfers are made with large, very comfortable ships (in 40 min). The visit begins with the church. A fairly quick stop is organized around 3 p.m. in a tavern with a shaded terrace where you can eat local food. Several pretty villages are visited without stress. We were not able to go to the monastery because July 23 is a day of commemoration (!). The tour ends around 7 p.m. and there is still plenty of time to walk around and have a drink. Meeting around 9:15 p.m. to take the ferry independently. The young guide was very nice (English). The excursion is quite long but it is worth it.
