The Greek island of Milos is something of a hidden secret. In their rush to see Santorini and Mykonos, tourists seem to pass Milos by, and that’s a great thing! It means the island has retained its unique charms, its authenticity, and its untouched nature. The wild landscape just begs to be explored, and there’s no better way to do so than by taking our 4×4 Milos Road Trip adventure. We propose the following options.

Customized 4×4 Tour of Milos

Create your own customized 4×4 Tour of Milos. Your driver will be a knowledgeable expert local who knows all the best places to see. The whole family will enjoy the sense of adventure as you meet the driver and then plan out the day’s activities. Perhaps you want to visit a traditional village, or swim on as many beaches as you can in one day? Would you like to see a monastery or explore the catacombs of Milos? You can decide on the day which activities you would prefer, and then our driver will plan the best route and take you there.

Even though Milos is quite a small island, there is a lot to see and do when there! Here are just some of the highlights you could include on your family 4×4 road trip adventure!
