Not much left of the ruins, so guided tour recommended. Overall definitely worth a visit to understand how wars destroy beauty. Tip 1. Our guide was really good but the only museum on the island was closed for renovations. Better check this before booking! Tip 2. There is no drinking water on the island and only one bathroom with a long queue. Remember to use the boat you arrive on, if required, before getting down.

Going to Delos on the ferry was an excellent excursion.! The meeting point in Mykonos was supposed to be Kastro’s Tavern, but did not see that. We quickly saw the Delos Ticket booth and that is where we exchanged our voucher for ferry and entry and return ferry tickets. Our guide Amaryllis was very knowledgeable when showing us around and was patient to let all of us in our group take photos and ask questions. The ferry had drinks and snacks on board and it is a comfortable ferry which we did not expect. Thank you Get Your Guide.

Our guide George (former archaeologist on the site and lovely person) gave a wonderful introduction to to the ancient site of Delos through his very expressive delivery. He was able to impart his wonderful knowledge by bringing the scene to life. We walked slowly through the ruins & he got us to imagine the past, its people and its buildings. The tour was very extensive as he explained the major features of Delos.
