ANSWER: Mykonos Island is one of the safest tourist destinations on the planet. The people of Mykonos are warm, friendly, welcoming and take great pride in their Island. The spirit of hospitality is widespread, and “Mykonians” have a genuine desire for you to experience the very best their island paradise has to offer.
ANSWER: It depends on where your ship docks.
If your cruise ship tenders to the Old Port, you’re already close to Mykonos Town, and you can easily explore on foot.
If your ship docks at the New Port (Tourlos), it’s about a 30-minute walk to Mykonos Town, or a short shuttle or sea-bus ride away.
For comfort and time-saving, many cruise guests prefer joining a guided tour that includes pick-up from the port and shows them the best of the island — no planning or map-checking needed!

ANSWER: Most places in Mykonos accept credit and debit cards, especially in shops, restaurants, and beach bars. However, it’s a good idea to carry some cash (Euros) for small purchases, tips, or places that don’t accept cards — like tiny local cafés or souvenir stalls.
ATMs are available in Mykonos Town and near the cruise port, but they can be busy when multiple ships are in port — so it’s smart to come prepared with a bit of cash, just in case!
Yes — taxis in Mykonos can be very limited, especially during cruise season. There are only a small number of licensed taxis on the entire island, and wait times can be long, particularly at the New Port and in Mykonos Town.
That’s why many visitors choose a pre-booked tour with pick-up included — it’s the easiest and most stress-free way to explore the island without the hassle of waiting or wondering if you’ll find a ride.
ANSWER:
Mykonos is known for its beauty and its prices — yes, some things can be quite expensive, especially in beach clubs, trendy restaurants, and boutique shops. It’s one of Greece’s most popular (and upscale) islands.

ANSWER:
Tipping in Mykonos (and Greece in general) isn’t mandatory, but it’s very much appreciated!
In restaurants and cafés, a tip of 5–10% is common if you’re happy with the service. For guides and drivers, a small tip at the end of a tour is a lovely way to say thank you — especially if they made your day special!
It’s always up to you, but locals do notice and appreciate the gesture. 💙
