Tinos Island Tour
The fairy-tale journey to Tinos, an island of historic, spiritual, and artistic connotations over a 30-minute ferry ride from Mykonos. The most revered church in Greece, Panagia Evangelistria, is found here housing the miraculous icon of Megalochari. Witness the Venetian architecture quite evident in the gorgeous pigeon houses and Catholic villages, while not missing also the serene atmosphere of the Kechrovouni Monastery offering astonishing views. Pyrgos is the marble capital of Tinos, where local artisans shape the world-renowned marble, while Volax is a village nestled within thin slivers of granite boulders where basket weaving is the local art. A midday meal would probably involve a palate-teasing local dish, while Tinoss surprising landscapes would surely steal your heart. Relax and shop at Tinos Town before ferrying back to Mykonos.
