I definitely want to avoid the crowds. I live in Orlando, tourist central, and know what summer crowds are like, lol. Everyone we spoke to said Greece is phenomenal in September/October- still warm out, water is warm enough to swim, and not a ton of tourists left! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have one card without transaction fees but it’s for a large purchase and/or emergency. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TO an uphill walk to bus (tickets?) TO Oai? On Pride in October, making copious notes. Ty. Hey. So tender from the ship to the Fira port. You will see shops selling the speed boat trip to Oia. 15 Euros each and it covers speed boat, bus up and bus back to Fira (up top). 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BohJang Posted June 5, 2023 #588 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Megan - I don't know if you have heard of DK Oyster in Platys Gialos on Mykonos. According to a few articles I have read online they are a famous tourist rip off place. People have been charged $800 for dinner there. Just a heads up. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Stem to Stern Posted June 5, 2023 #589 Share Posted June 5, 2023 We carefully walked down with the donkeys. Hate long lines. The walk wasn’t a hateful exercise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I found a tip online somewhere that you also should always take a picture of the menu before ordering, because if you get your bill and the prices are higher and ask for the menu, they’ll give you a menu with the higher prices that match your inflated bill 🤦♀️ 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
