Marious was incredible. So knowledgeable and very kind. He went above and beyond!

Highlights
  • Visit Sarakiniko the 'Lunar Landscape' and most pictured location in Cyclades
  • Stroll around Plaka's cobbed streets and alleys
  • See Papafragas, a cluster of deep-sea inlets and sea caves
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.

Was a very small group as it is September, so felt friendly and informal, and great to see parts of the island we would have had no chance of seeing otherwise. Our guide knew the history of Milos well and even took us to see a place not on the itinerary which was so beautiful. The short lunch stop at a bakery was also perfect. Quite a bit of walking as well, but worth it for the stunning locations both historical and tourist sites including the breathtaking Sarakaniko!

This tour was incredible. It had a little bit of everything....historical information about the island as well a stop for swimming and for lunch. We also got to go off road driving across the top of the mountain which was different as well. There was only a small group of 6 of us and I made friends with 2 of the other ladies and have kept in touch since the tour. I would 100% recommend the tour.

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.
