Maybe Bring Your Own Life Jacket
We did not have any issues with the weather or wind on our trip out to Delos. One of the crew members was our official guide on Delos and she did a good job. It would have been nice to have some guidance as to whether we had to pay 20 euro (or 10 euro) which includes the museum that we did not have time to visit. I believe most of us paid $20. I would have liked to seen the museum. We had a beautiful day out on the water. Note that it is a catamaran with mats beneath the sails where everyone sits. The gangplank was shaky, but the crew helped everyone embark and disembark. No mention was made of the location of the life jackets and no life jacket safety was mentioned. Upon talking with others on different but similar trips, this seems to be the norm for the Mykonos Delos excursions. Swimming was unsupervised and the crew stayed in the cabin during the meal and during swimming. The meal was a tasty red sauce on penne pasta with a greek salad and fruit for dessert. Drinks were included. All in all a beautiful day on the water and an informative hike through the Delos ruins.

Great cruise to Delos and Rhenia!
This was a very pleasant cruise and guided tour of the Delos archeological site. The stop at Rhenia was welcome. Jumping into the sea was refreshing! The meal was good and there was water available for everyone. Definitely recommended.
via Viator
100% recommend!
This adventure was the highlight of our trip. The tour of Delos was wonderful, highly suggest following the guide. She was very knowledgable and provided great insight. The crew was very accommodating and the stop to swim and have lunch after was perfect. If you get motion sickness be sure to take something before to help because the wind can make the sea very choppy. Don’t let that deter you from going though!

Boat and guided tour
The boat was fantastic, the tour was extremely interesting and the guide was very knowledgeable. We then went skimming with snorkels provided. Lunch and drinks were also provided and the food was simple but delicious and the guides could not do enough for you. Highly reccomend

Why this scores 85
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mykonos.
How much does Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks cost?
+
Prices start at $132 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mykonos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mykonos is not rushed.
Is Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 652 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mykonos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks?
+
Around 228 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mykonos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mykonos and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mykonos Sail Cruise to Rhenia, Guided Tour of Delos, Lunch&Drinks start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mykonos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mykonos?
+
On Outty we rank every Mykonos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mykonos: Brand-New Catamaran Cruise with Meal, Drinks & Transport, Tour and Wine Tasting in Mykonian Land, Mykonos Small Group Tour for Cruise Passengers — Port Pickup. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mykonos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mykonos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
