Vibrant island life with mixed accessibility
Mykonos Town (Chora) is a maze of narrow whitewashed alleys — beautiful but difficult for wheelchairs. However, the island's beaches, restaurants, and newer resort areas are much more accessible. With a good guide and the right base, Mykonos delivers the Greek island experience.
