Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Mykonos

When is the best time to visit Mykonos? +
June through September is the prime Mykonos season, offering reliably warm sunshine, beautifully calm Aegean waters and the island at its most vibrant — beach clubs are in full swing, the social scene is electric and the light is extraordinary from dawn until well after sunset. July and August are the most intense months with peak prices and the liveliest atmosphere. Late June and September offer a slightly more effortless experience with excellent weather, easier restaurant reservations and a more intimate feel without sacrificing any of the island's essential glamour.
How much does a luxury trip to Mykonos cost? +
A well-curated luxury Mykonos short break typically ranges from $3,500 to $15,000 or more per person, depending on hotel choice, duration and experiences. The finest properties — Kalesma, Bill & Coo and Santa Marina — start from around $700 to $1,100 per night in peak season. Private catamaran charters, Delos tours, beach club reservations and fine dining add meaningful but worthwhile costs. Unmatched Journeys provides fully transparent, itemised proposals before you confirm any booking.
Do UAE or GCC nationals need a visa for Greece? +
UAE passport holders do not require a visa to enter Greece or the wider Schengen Area and may stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period — among the most generous visa-free access for Gulf travellers in Europe. Residents of the UAE holding other nationalities should verify their specific Schengen visa requirements; applications are typically processed through the Greek embassy and Unmatched Journeys provides current guidance and preferred application support for all guests.
What are the must-see attractions and experiences in Mykonos? +
The Kato Myli windmills and Little Venice waterfront are iconic and essential at sunset. A private boat tour to Delos — one of the Aegean's greatest archaeological sites and mythological birthplace of Apollo — is the most culturally rewarding experience in the entire Cyclades. The Aegean beach clubs, particularly Scorpios and Nammos, define the island's contemporary glamour. Chora's labyrinthine boutique lanes and the exceptional Cycladic cuisine of the island's finest restaurants complete a perfect Mykonos itinerary.
Is Mykonos safe for travellers? +
Mykonos is very safe and extremely welcoming for international visitors, consistently ranking among Europe's most visited and hospitable islands. The island hosts hundreds of thousands of tourists annually, including a large and growing number from the Gulf region. Standard sensible precautions apply in busy public spaces during peak summer months. Unmatched Journeys provides up-to-date destination briefings and 24/7 on-call concierge support for all guests throughout their stay.
How do I get around Mykonos? +
For luxury travellers, a private chauffeured vehicle arranged by your hotel or Unmatched Journeys is the most comfortable and efficient option — Mykonos roads can be narrow and parking difficult in peak season. Water taxis from the old port or new port offer a charming alternative for reaching beaches and boat connections. ATV and scooter hire is popular for independent exploration, but the winding island roads require care. Ferries and high-speed boats connect from Athens Piraeus in approximately two to five hours, or the island is served by regular domestic flights from Athens.
What is the Delos island day trip and how is it arranged? +
Delos is a sacred UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important archaeological sites in the Greek world — the mythological birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, it contains remarkably preserved Hellenistic temples, mosaics, statues and the famous Terrace of the Lions. The island is uninhabited and accessible only by boat from Mykonos. Unmatched Journeys arranges private guided tours with specialist archaeologists, departing by private catamaran or speedboat to ensure a completely unhurried, crowd-free experience of this extraordinary place.
