You should definitely try to rent a car! by wadekorzan
Really, unless you are on an extreme budget, you should rent some kind of vehicle to get around. It really is somewhat inconvenient if you have to rely on buses, and taxis are SO difficult to get. Do you really want to spend a good deal of your vacation waiting for buses, or getting frustrated because you cannot get around? We originally thought we would rely on public transportation, but we learned very quickly that we were going to be very limited and without freedom, so we opted to rent a car and I am SO glad we did. We could go wherever we wanted whenever we wanted, and believe me, this helps. If you stay in Mykonos town, you're going to want to go out to the beaches. And if you stay at one of the beaches like we did, you're going to want to come into town often in the evening. So I just cannot stress enough how this helped our holiday.There are rental agencies everywhere and it is not difficult to get one last minute, by the day or by the week. Not exactly cheap, somewhere around 40-50 Euros per day, but definitely worth it. We rented from Hercules (Telephone 228 902 3168) which is right at the entrance to the town when you are coming from the port, opposite the Museum of Mykonos and bus terminal, easy to find, but there are many others. Don't miss out!!!
