We really wanted to experience Delos and its amazing past and this was the way to do it. staying on the island of Naxos, we needed to find a way to get to Delos. We would have skipped Mykonos, but they came together and we ended up enjoying both very much. The boat and the crew were wonderful. A great experience we would highly recommend.

Exactly as described! Reading other reviews annoyed me...ofcourse it's just transfers and ofcourse there's a longer ferry ride to get there! We had great service and everything was on time, we were really happy to be able to get back on the boat early at Delos as I'm pregnant and was exhausted! So we relaxed on the boat with a drink. Ferry ride was super comfortable in reclining seats with a bar, everything was on time and super easy!!!

Delos was beautiful and incredibly well-preserved ruins. However we felt we needed more time and would have definitely benefitted from having a guide. Mykonos was not as interesting to us as there were many shops to browse. This is not an interest of ours and we went up high to view Mykonos and the windmills.
