Tinos Half Day Tour

Discover the hidden charm of Tinos’ inland villages on a 4-hour private tour. Wander through stone-built alleys, take in dramatic landscapes, and dive into centuries-old traditions. From the granite wonders of Volax to the panoramic views atop Exomvourgo, this experience reveals the island’s true soul — far from the crowds and close to its culture.

Hidden Gems of Tinos: A Private Village Hopping Experience

Step off the beaten path and immerse yourself in the authentic essence of Tinos with this exclusive half-day village hopping tour. Designed for curious travelers and culture seekers, this private experience showcases the rich history, dramatic landscapes, and timeless traditions of Tinos’ inland heartland.

Your journey begins with a hotel pick-up at 10:30 AM, as your driver and private guide whisk you away to explore picturesque villages and stunning natural wonders.

Start by passing through quaint settlements like Triantaros, Dyo Choria, and Arnados, before arriving in Falatados — a traditional village famous for its local spirit (raki), traditional looms, and the unique Sketch’s House caricature museum. Here, you’ll also explore a rare geological phenomenon: a protected landscape filled with massive, ancient granite boulders, found in only one other place on Earth.

Next, head to the Exomvourgo Mountain viewpoint, where the remains of a Venetian fortress stand as a testament to Tinos’ storied past. Soak in sweeping views of the island and the Aegean beyond.

Continue your adventure in the mystical village of Volax, nestled among surreal rock formations. Here, meet local artisans and learn about the centuries-old craft of traditional basket weaving — a living tradition passed down through generations.

As your tour winds down, enjoy a scenic drive past the charming villages of Skalados, Loutra, Xinara, and Tripotamos before returning to Tinos Town at approximately 2:30 PM — your heart full of memories and your camera full of breathtaking shots.
