Ermoupoli Walking Tour - Great tour with Dimitri. He guided us around the key parts of the city and shared a lot of historical facts plus details about live in Ermoupoli. I felt it was a good way to learn about the city. There are stairs and hills involved but should be accessible for most people.

A really great tour of the city - A really great and interesting tour of Ermoupoli, visiting some of the most important places of the whole of Greece while learning about the importance of Syros' rich history. Dimitris was very kind, professional and informative, providing water bottles for the group and answering all of our questions. I would definitely recommend booking this tour if you want to get to know this city better. You will be very surprised by the amazing history this town and island have!

Excellent tour of Ermoupolis cultural sights and history - Dimitris is a very good and professional guide. A native of Syros who provides a real feel for the island. Our tour took place on a cool day with slight rain so we were the only two people on the tour. He provides a tour with much historical information but not overwhelming detail. Both of the churches and especially the theater are well worth visiting even without a guide but it was a much more interesting and educational experience with Dimitris as our guide. There is a fee of only 1 euro per person to enter the theater, there are no other fees and includes some sweet treats at the end to taste that are included in the tour. It was just the two of us and we requested a shorter tour due to our schedule, he still included all the stops in about 80 minutes which was perfect for us. This tour is best for those interested in the history of the town from a knowledgable and engaging guide.

a great intro to Syros gastronomy - Marion was our guide. She was helpful and pleasant and the tour was 'food' based calling in to several shops to sample their traditional products. A great two hour intro to the island culure. Booked throughTrekking Hellas - a great worthy organisation that was helpful and relaible. Byron C (Sydney)
