Awesome experience

This bike tour was just what I had hoped for... A bit of fun, relaxation, swimming, and delicious bites.... And almost forgot... Wine tasting!!!! Dimitra is awesome. Would go back in a heartbeat.

Shore Excursion in Mykonos

We are a family of 5 and had a half day into the evening on Mykonos as a shore excursion during our Mediterranean cruise. I wasn't up for the Paradise Beach scene and wanted to see more of the island. Dimitra our guide and the owner of Yummy Pedals was FABULOUS!!! I can't say enough good things. She speaks excellent English and was easy to work with ahead of time planning our day. She picked us up at the dock and even organized last minute some changes to the schedule. We went to her families restaurant and vineyard where we picked out our bikes. From there we headed to a few different beaches based on the weather and time of day. She did a great job explaining the island, local customs and sharing some homemade treats with us. We swam in the sea and rode back to her place. From there she drove us into town encouraging us to venture out on our own exploring this charming village. It was a remarkable day and if you don't mind getting some exercise this is a GREAT DAY. I was wavering between the kayaking or scuba diving but be couldn't be happier that I went with the bike riding. My teen boys and hubby loved the day! This will not disappoint you and can be geared to adjust all levels of riders.

Excellent "taste" of the other Mykonos!

First I was reluctant to join in a tour, as I don't count myself among those fit and trained bicycle lovers. Then, I found out that I could choose among different tours of different difficulty and I was glad that I had this great experience with yummy pedals! The whole experience was much more than cycling. It was rather a great chance to come together with a local, eager to share her enthousiasm about the other side and the beauties of the island like picturesque hidden paths and crystalclear hidden waters. Although the owner and tour guide was a real professional, she was very friendly and made us feel like part of the Mykonian people family. Her fresh made limonade and cake were served at the right time and were delicious.

Real slice of Greek hospitality

We had a wonderful time. You really see what the Greeks are all about on this trip. Friendly, genuine and focused on your enjoyment and comfort. The bikes are in great shape and the trip was just right for our large and varying group. The secluded beach was exactly what we wanted away from all the hustle. They even dropped some of us in town while took the rest to the cruise terminal. The muffins and the lemonade were perfect for our one big hill climb on the way back. The non fussy and completely friendly staff was perfect for our group.

All this and we supported a great woman who genuinely took the lemons the Greece crisis provided her and turned it into lemonade. Kudos.

Perfect Bike Tour

The bike tour that Dimitra led went beyond my expectations. We went for the relatively easy bike tour with a picnic at a beach and were pleasantly surprised at every turn. She took time to explain various details about the history of Mykonos and prepared a delicious meal for the beach. The bikes she has are also very high quality and a pleasure to ride. I would absolutely recommend taking a bike tour with Yummy Pedals and wouldn't hesitate taking another if I'm ever back in Mykonos.

Fantastic way to experience the eastern part o the island

Wanted to do a little active excursion ater relaxing on the beach for days. The tour covered hills, valleys, a secluded beach, and a monastery all in under 3 hrs. Our tour guide Dmitra was wonderful, warm, and informative and they did a great job for others on the tour that had limited experience with biking. Equipment was very well maintained and they provide all of the gear you need. Her super friendly dog also joined us or the ride and carved out a place as the center of attention!

Highly recommended for an adventurous detour!

Great Getaway

This tour is a great getaway from crowdy, touristy Mykonos Town to see the beautiful Mykonos Island. Dimitra was knowledgeable and hospitable to our group and responsive to our needs. Be sure to stay at the winery after for lunch to taste more fresh and local food.

Something different on Mykonos island!

This was one of my favorite activities while we visited Mykonos. Dimitra showed us a side of the island that most people don't get to see AND we got in a great workout.

But the real treat was swimming at the "secret" beach (or maybe it was the yummy homemade lemonade). She even offered to take underwater photos of me and my boyfriend, which I thought was pretty cool. Dimitra was especially patient whenever my boyfriend wanted to stop and take photos with his own camera (which was pretty often).

Although I'm active, I don't ride a bicycle, so I found our ride to be challenging, in a good way! We really enjoyed this tour and would recommend it to anyone looking for something different to do.

Amazing Day!

We decided to book a yummy pedals tour 30 minutes before it departed and we were on the other side of the island. Dimi was so wonderful and waited for us to arrive at the beautiful farm. Once there, she made us feel so comfortable and welcomed (and she even let us borrow shoes because we forgot ours)! The day was one of the best days we've had. We saw parts of the island that we wouldn't have seen and swam in the most amazing crystal blue water at our own secluded beach. Dimi even bought her underwater camera for us to take photos on. After our swim, Dimi and her assistant made us the tastiest lemonade and provided us with yummy muffins whilst we sunbaked on the beach. The cycling was so much fun and defiently gave us a great workout. We would recommend this tour to everyone! A perfect day! Thanks Dimi.

A truly Unique Experience

There are plenty of sites on Mykonos full of tourists, but Dimitra and Yummy Pedals was a real step away from all the crowds. Beautiful countryside views during our bike ride were punctuated with a swim on a very private beach and a visit to a very soulful Monastery. Then, the home grown, lovingly prepared food and the wine from her family's organic farm / vineyard was just divine. I would highly recommend this outing before going off to explore Little Venice or other sights on Mykonos.

A Mykonos Gem of a Day

Hola all, We had the absolute pleasure spending a half day with Dimitra and her family. We emailed back and forth before leaving home about meeting times (we were on a cruise) and location. Another couple from the cruise was also on our tour so we were picked up together in town and taken out to the farm.

There were 6 of us on the morning ride. The ride is pretty easy and you should have no problems with it if you are comfortable on a bicycle (well, maybe a little trouble on the hill from the beach...but you can walk your bike up no problem and spending time on the beach is pure bliss). We were given a cold bottle of water and a quick lesson about the gears and away we went.

Along the way to the beach we stopped at a small private church and got a lesson on why so many homes have them. We then stopped at the fresh water lake and dam used for drinking water on the island. Then we headed to a beautiful beach that we almost had to ourselves. If you've been to Mykonos, you will understand how special it is to have a beach to yourself. The water was crystal blue and super refreshing after our bike ride. Dimitar pulled out delicious homemade lemonade and muffins for a snack and offered to refill any empty water bottles with cold water.

When we arrived back at the farm we all stayed for lunch (which will be reviewed separately). All I can say is, you want to make sure you stay for lunch and wine.

Make sure to book well in advance, this little tour is growing greatly in popularity. We've joked that we will return next year to work for Dimitra she will have so much business.
