Overview

Discover the winding alleys of the medieval city, Ano Syros with this private walking tour. This historic settlement is strategically set on a hillside with the impressive Agios Georgios Cathedral at its highest point. Your tour will start here so that you can enjoy incredible views and meander down the hilly streets.

The famous cathedral was once designated as the center of Catholicism in the Aegean Sea. You can also visit the monasteries of the Jesuits and the Capuchins, which were also once the powerhouse of Ano Syros.

On the way back to your accommodation, make one final stop at the renovated Windmill.
