Great places to visit… the trip in the boat was comfortable and the girl in the bar selling snacks and drinks was super nice and friendly

This experience is less of a tour and more transportation to and from a couple islands. The boat is average, nothing fancy. If you are looking for no frills transportation to Delos and Mykonos from Naxos or Paros, this gets the job done.

The cruise was perfect, well balanced 3 h in Delos and 3 h in Mykonos. Viator not so grate, they send as at the airport as meting point instead of port, and they charge as 145 euro instead of 120 euro, the real cost of excursion. Never again Viator.

You're essentially paying for the boat ride, and that is it; IT IS NOT A TOUR. It saves the hassle of ferry hoping, as you have this boat for the entire day. Delos was excellent; I felt we had enough time, and the same for Mykonos. The departure point was simple, and the boat left on schedule. I'm glad I went on this, and I would recommend it to people staying in Naxos who want to see Delos and Mykonos

It’s just a shuttle service. And it takes longer than advertised from Naxos - up to 2 hours (and this wasn’t just because of the weather)

Cons: 1. The vessel is really small, it's hardly 20 feet across. It's designed to sail a small body of standing water, not the high seas. The weather was just slightly rough but the boat was rocking profoundly and some passengers were getting seasick. So it spoiled the entire experience from the get go as watching people throw up is not exactly pleasant. Standing or walking presented a challenge as the ship tilted 7-8 degrees all the time. So if you predisposed to seasickness this may be not your dream cruise. 2. Another thing they did not disclose was a stop at Paros. It added another hour to the entire trip. 3. Mykonos was a waste of time. It's an ultimate tourist trap. Pros: 1. If you want to visit Delos it's a good alternative to staying in Mykonos and taking a ferry from there.

Arrived at the port to see the boat about to depart half hour early. The crew rudely told us the Delos trip had been cancelled 2 weeks before. No one had informed us of this. No other way for us to get there that day so had to find something else to do.

Trip rescheduled due to high winds, but arrived at port the day after to be told at departure time that it was cancelled again. The weather forecast hadn't changed, we feel they could have told us in advance it would be cancelled. Very disappointing service.

Delos was definitely worth visiting and was really interesting, but I wish we found a different way to get there. We booked this trip partly because the website advertised that the trip to Delos would take less than an hour, compared to a 2 hour ferry ride. In fact, it took over 2 hours because the boat takes a detour to Paros to pick up additional passengers (the ferry to Mykonos takes 45 minutes). The three hours on Mykonos were some of the worst we spent in Greece since the town was inundated by hordes from multiple cruise ships. If I could do this again, I would try to take a regular ferry and skip Mykonos.

Delos was very interesting. There is a lot to see but 3 hours is sufficient. It can be very hot with no shade and no where to replenish water. Come prepared! We could have skipped Mykonos but that wasn’t an option. We were not impressed with Mykonos.

Delos was fabulous. To walk through the old Tempels, the theatre and old bildings/houses was fantastic. Mykonos with the small street/shops, mills, very good food,was great. Both, delos and Mykonos, it is worth to travel and visit.

Mykonos was superb. Delos was very interesting but the stop was too long since it was so hot with no shade. It’s an hop on hop off tour with no comments and you visit by your own; that was all right for us. We loved Mykonos and it’s narrow streets. Just as we pictured it.

Keep in mind this is not a tour. It's a ride. They pick you up and drop you off then come back to get you. It's a convenient and inexpensive way to see Delos and mykonos if you are short on time and are staying in Naxos. There is no water or snacks and none for sell. There is no where to buy food or drinks at Delos. They picked us up from Delos at 1 and we were hungry, thirsty, hot, and cranky. It's still worth seeing but would have been better with a guide. There is no audio tour or way to join a guid group. You just pay and walk in. I was ready to leave around 1130. Thank God I had a cooling towel and a book. The boat was not limited capacity. It was crowded, stuffy, hot, and smelly. I found it much better to sit in the small space in the back so I could breath fresh air. I gave 4 stars because they didn't promise any of those things, but the crowding in during the pandemic when we should have been at limited capacity was irresponsible and there should have been a way to buy water. Come prepared and its worth it. I did feel like we had sufficient time on each island and the boat was easy to find in the Port. I did not get picked up from my hotel as promised but they did let me know with sufficient time to make arrangements.

Our trip was cancelled without notice due to rough seas and we weren’t given another option to experience Delos during the time we were staying on Naxos.

Very worthwhile trip (worth 5 stars). Pity that this booking is more expensive than other offers that are exactly the same. Important to know is that there is no guide for this guided tour.

Tour operators switched my cruise day, which luckily was still a day I was in Naxos but then cancelled the tour altogether less than 24 hours before departure. It seems like it might have been demand related, which I do understand given travel is just beginning to reopen but when I asked for help with alternatives none was given. I ended up simply booking a roundtrip regular ferry to Mykonos but wasted time learning my options. Some local guidance would have gone a long way.

This was a wonderful day trip to Delos & Mykonos. We had two and a half hours on Delos. Entry was 12 euro per person, cash and cards accepted. Bring lots of sunscreen and water, and a hat. There is little shade, and so much to explore! It was then a short ferry ride to Mykonos, where we had three and a half hours to spend on our own. After Delos, it would be wise to pack a swimsuit and towel to enjoy one of the many beaches as well as the town. Excellent tour, would go again!

First, this does not include hotel pick up as advertised on TripAdvisor. Not the fault of the operator and I made them aware so they can fix it. I arrived to Naxos mid day before the cruise and kept getting emails that I needed to pick up the voucher 24 hours in advance. When my ferry arrived hotel pickup was there and I had no idea where the tour office was or how I was going get there. Trip to Delo’s was main reason came to this island. Therefore was stressed and had to make a couple of calls to get resolved (can’t wait to see how much these calls cost me.). Tour office was helpful in providing instructions on how to get there in the morning and all was well. Tip: the office was very close to ferry but did not know that until next day. Tip: I now know why people rush back to the boat prior to take off. To get a seat outside and especially not next to the very, very hot air supply. Had to stand most of the way back after strenuous climb to top of Delos. If going to Zeus and Athena at top is your goal, follow blue trail first. I took green and had to back track then climb. Had just enough time to stay a bit, descend and make it to boat. Did not have time to visit museum where I assume would have been able to see artifacts. Tip: Maybe heat or energy of place drained phone/camera battery that usually lasts all day. Glad had power bank as Mykonos was next and then return.

This is a one-day trip to Delos and Mykonos from Naxos. Starting at roughly 9am, going to Delos and then Mykonos. The boat stops at Paros both ways. It was billed as 3 hours on Delos and 3 hours on Mykonos, returning around 7pm to Naxos port. The main problem is that the time on Delos isn't 3 hours, it was only two hours, some of which was taken up (25 minutes?) with waiting in the ticket line, which was very slow and only had two kiosks. So here you are, on one of the most remarkable archeological sites in the world, and you have 1.5 hours to see it, not 3. So if you are taking the excursion to visit Delos, be forewarned. The sad thing is that then we had 3.5 hours in Mykonos town, which is mostly just restaurants, shops and tourists... with a few small museums. Delos is remarkable and needs more time.
