About the Activity
This tour offers the most complete experience for those who want to discover Ios in depth. We begin with a visit to Skarkos, one of the best-preserved Bronze Age settlements in the Cyclades, where you’ll learn about early Aegean civilization. Then, we cycle across beautiful inland landscapes to the Tomb of Homer, the legendary resting place of the great poet, surrounded by breathtaking views. Our final stop is Diaseli Cheesery, a family-run farm where we’ll taste fresh, handmade local cheeses and hear stories of Ios’s rural traditions. Throughout the journey, you’ll enjoy quiet paths, expansive views, and the scent of fig trees and wild herbs. Led by guides who have written about the island’s history and culture, this tour offers a deep, immersive experience that combines archaeology, mythology, gastronomy, and nature — all effortlessly explored on an electric bike.5 hours
