We went to see this site with a tour guide. This was an interesting site to see in person. Very historical and educational. Something I'm sure we will still be learning about for years to come as there are archeologists living and working there still. The ferry ride to the island on the day we went ( in july) was very rough so be prepared.

Absolutely amazing experience. And my daughter was thrilled to see so many cats (she spotted 16) inhabiting the uninhabited island. We loved seeing the cats lounging on ancient stone.

Great site to visit to understand the history of Delos. Site is a 30 minute boat ride from Mykonos. Would recommend getting the tour with a tour guide so that you can get a better insight and understanding of the history and significance of the site.

Great way to spend a few hours if in Mykonos. . An island covered in ancient ruins with a whole lot of history and it has a great wee museum. Can get very hot there with no shelter around. I had a guide which made the visit better. I bought the tickets at the old port in Mykonos on the day. Ferry ride from Mykonos about 25 min.

A half an hour ferry ride from Mykonos brings you to Delos. Beautiful island with a lot of historic importance. Get ample food and water as there were no cafés on the island when we were there in the first week of May. The best part of the visit was the short but steep hike to the highest point on the island. The views are spectacular!

Incredible history is found here. Greece BC, as well as trading cultures from the region. Highly recommend a guided tour to reveal the stories found in all these beautiful buildings. We took this as a third party excursion on a cruise that stopped in Mykanos, which was far better than a day of shopping (this tour 2qs only 4 to 6 hours total). The recovery of this history is incredibly interesting! Oh, and lots of cats. 🐱

This is just an amazing, mind blowing place. If you are staying in Mykonos for few days, Delos is a great day out. I visited it before the tourist season really started, and it was already busy. So it must be another mare in the high season. I would recommend booking ticket in advance. From my understanding there is only one company that organises boat trips and they are at set time during the day.

Easy access via ferry. Amazing number of artifacts in one location. I recommend this for anyone with an interest in Greek history or mythology. Having a tour guide explain what you are seeing is extremely helpful.
