A Guided Tour to Delos Island
only 30 minutes by boat from Mykonos
The Island of Delos, a major Greek archaeological and World Heritage site
The Delos Island archaeological sanctuary, birthplace of Apollo and Artemis,
is listed by Unesco as one of mankind's most important cultural and historical sites.
Delos was a sacred island for Ancient Greeks and with the Delos oracle being
second only to that of Delphi the island became the holiest place in the Aegean.
As a result there grew a flourishing commercial town & harbor on Delos with a large population, temples, and open air theatre.
The short boat trip and guided tour to this now uninhabited island of Delos,
will give you some facts and a remarkable insight of the Hellenistic ruins
dating from 300 B.C
The tour of Delos Island takes approximately 4 hours and your guide
will wander with you among the ancient temples (both Greek and Roman)
including the Temple of Apollo. You'll see the mosaic floors of once
grand villas, the famous Delos Lions, Cleopatra's house,
the amphitheatre plus much more.
