Tinos (Island)
Holy Lady of Tinos |
Welcome to Tinos!
If you're looking for mass tourism and crowded beaches, then this destination is not for you. Tinos is an island for those who appreciate the old ways and lifestyle of the islanders, the authentic picturesque villages that one hopes to find on a Greek island, and the simple Greek cuisine that Greece itself is famous for. Here on Tinos, it's back to basics.
When you first arrive to Tinos Town, you will certainly be thinking that the previous paragraph applies to a totally different island, and that we've made a drastic mistake in our text. Rest assured, however, that the hustle and bustle of the town does not apply to the rest of the island! During the summer months and on the weekends, the town is throbbing with activity, primarily due to Greek visitors here to pay homage to the Holy Virgin at the famous Church of the Panagia.
Unfortunately for many of them, they do not have the opportunity to visit the rest of the island, as most visitors for the Church stay only a few hours or for only one night. The rest of the island lies undiscovered and its beaches remain ever so inviting.
It is here on Tinos that our agency began 30 years ago. While Tinos itself reflects the past, our agency and our services are very much in the present.
We offer a wide variety of accommodation, all clean and comfortable, with an emphasis on Greek hospitality and beautiful scenery.
Our transfer service for your arrival and departure guarantees that you will never be left alone standing on the port, especially helpful since Tinos has three ports!
And, if you've booked a rental car for your arrival, you won't be left alone to find your own way to your accommodation; we'll take you there, give you information about the island, and be sure you're off to a good start.
During your stay, you can book excursions with us, reconfirm your return flights, hire cars/bikes, book accommodation on other islands or on the mainland, and even swap books when you run out!
Our excellent staff lives year-round on Tinos and is eager to share their knowledge and love of the island with you. If you are planning to book a trip to Tinos, book it with the experts! Let us Travel Your Dreams!
Our New Offices
Welcome to our new location!
During the winter of 2009/2010, our Tinos office moved to a new and improved location. We have left one of the busiest, noisiest main streets in Tinos Town and are now situated in a lovely garden with an idyllic sea view.
For all of our wonderful friends returning to Tinos, we’re just up the road from the old office (about 50 meters or so), a bit closer to the main port. If you’re coming from town, just pass the old office (half of which is now occupied by the bus company), and turn right at the next street. A few short steps straight ahead will take you right to our gate. You’ll see the windmills in the garden!
If you’re coming from Kionia and heading toward town, just turn left after the Asteria Hotel, which sits above the main port.
The new location is easy, convenient and ever so quiet. We hope you’ll stop by to say hi and take a moment to sit in our garden and enjoy the sunshine … we’re looking forward to seeing all of you in 2010!
