Greek Cuisine
In the UK, there are many different Greek restaurants, run by those who know what they are doing. However, although these restaurants might give you a glimpse into Greek cuisine, you won’t get to experience the true Greek food until you visit there. This is why you should think about putting Mykonos on your bucket list so that you can enjoy all of the amazing flavours. Try Tzatziki and Souvlaki and enjoy some fresh feta right from one of the Greek islands. The chefs here have been working with these dishes so make sure to give them a try if you do ever go to Mykonos.


Luxury Villas
In Mykonos, you’ll find a lot of different types of accommodation. There are lots of hotels that can work well for those who are travelling on a budget but the most popular way to stay is in a villa. There really are some beautiful Mykonos villa for rent on this island and they can act as the perfect escape for those wanting to get away from all of their worries. Have a look at this Mykonos villa for rent if you are thinking about ticking this destination off your travel bucket list this year and want to stay somewhere really great.

Have you ever seen a photograph of the lines of white houses with blue domes on top? In Mykonos, you’ll be able to see many towns full of these little houses and they can make for some really impressive views. Not only will you be able to see this in person, but you’ll also be able to take some photographs to remember the views in the future.
