    HORSEBACK RIDING

Horseback Riding

Young and old, beginners or advanced, horse lovers can experience the liberating feeling of riding in groups of 1-3 people, accompanied by experienced riders. You will experience the unknown paths and landscapes of Mykonos [from Ano Mera to the secluded Fokos], in 2-3 hour walks, which can be combined with a visit and swimming in the sea with the horses or with a romantic sunset, picnicking on the beach by candlelight.

    WINE TASTING

Wine Tasting

The roads of wine tasting lead to the famous vineyards scattered in Mykonos and offer the opportunity to visit them, learn about the ways of cultivation and try traditional Aegean varieties: Assyrtiko, Athiri, Monemvasia, Malagouzia, Aigiannitis, and Mandilaria. The historic vineyard “Mykonos Vioma” in Ano Mera [tel. +30 2289 071883, will give you a unique tasting experience in the impressive areas and the family farm, where fine organic wine is produced.

    BEER TASTING

Beer Tasting: Beer made in Mykonos!

Two brewers, Angelos Ferous and Janos Bako, and a renowned enologist, Giannis Paraskevopoulos join forces in 2016 and surprise by creating the Mikònu beers microbrewery in the area of Argyraina. They have already been awarded the Gold Award for aged beers and the Silver Award for the summery, golden Pale Ale [with a mild bittersweet aroma, intense hop aroma, and caramel aftertaste] and the Blonde Saison [flavored with citrus, rose, and banana]. Visit the place for tour and tasting, by appointment [tel. +30 22890 77912].

Spend a day away from the beach with horse riding, wine tasting or a brewery visit around Mykonos. These experiences explore the island beyond its coast. Our team can offer local information and transport suggestions.

Horse riding welcomes beginners and advanced riders in accompanied groups of one to three people. Routes run from Ano Mera toward Fokos and last two to three hours. Horseland Mykonos offers this experience for different levels of riding familiarity.

Depending on the option you choose, your ride can include swimming with the horses or a sunset picnic. Match the route to your riding experience and the time you have. The small accompanied groups keep the outing distinct from a larger sightseeing excursion.

Wine tasting introduces Aegean varieties including Assyrtiko, Athiri, Monemvasia, Malagouzia, Aigiannitis and Mandilaria. Use the tasting to compare their character and learn more about the island's wine traditions. This gives a land-based day a focus on local flavour and cultivation.

At the Mykonos Vioma vineyard in Ano Mera, visits include the family farm setting. Tastings are also available in Chora. The two locations give you different ways to fit wine into your island plans, whether you travel inland or remain close to town.

The Mikònu microbrewery in Argyraina offers another tasting experience, with Pale Ale and Blonde Saison among its beers. Tours and tastings are available by appointment. It provides a contrasting focus for travellers interested in brewing rather than vineyards.

Choose between outdoor activity, wine and beer according to your party's interests. Each creates a different pace, from time with horses to a seated tasting. Keep the rest of your plans simple rather than combining every option.

Plan a land-based outing around your own pace and experience. Riding routes and tastings appeal to different interests. Thinking about those preferences first makes the day feel personal.

Ask about local information and vehicle rental when planning your outing. Leave space for an easy return to the resort and a quieter afternoon if your party prefers one.

Your chosen provider supplies the current appointment, transport and meeting arrangements, so check these details before adding the experience to your day. Keep the rest of your itinerary flexible for a relaxed evening at the resort.
