Global City Guidebook 2024

Located in the heart of the Cyclades island group, Mykonos offers travelers a luxurious holiday. Whether you are looking to sit back and relax by the water, go on a shopping spree, visit art venues, see archaeological sites or dance at nightclubs, Mykonos has something for you.

GETTING THERE & AROUND

Travelers starting their adventure in Mykonos fly into Mykonos-Manto Mavrogenous Airport. Most visitors transfer into town via taxi, costing about $30 for the 10-minute trip. Once there, visitors primarily explore the town on foot. The Greek government proclaimed the town an architectural landmark, prohibiting most motorized traffic. A bus system takes you to a few destinations on the island. Another fun way to get around is the Platis Gialos boat service, running to the southern beaches.
