Tinos Review:
Nationality: British
Age: 36
Countries visited: 5-10The Trip: I arrived on Tinos island by Plane with Olympic Airways and by boat with the Blue Star Super Ferry 2. The trip was very good with no delays. First class travel was not expensive at all but very comfortable
Reasons for going to Tinos: It was the only place left with accommodation for August - we booked very late
Idea before arriving: I had heard about Tinos only in relation to the Catholic festival held on the 15th August when many people flock here on a pilgrimage. I was worried it might cater mainly for the older generation but I expected it to be unspoilt and quite traditional
Favorite things about Tinos:
-Best Beaches: Agios Fokas - didn't visit any others
-Best Villages: Many beautiful mountain villages
-Best Activity: Swimming
Recommendations for future visitors to Tinos:
The beautiful Catholic Church at the top of Tinos Church is worth a visit but check opening times - when we went it was closed to visitors. Also take the time to visit mountain villages
Rating of the overall quality/organization/services of this island/area in comparison with other countries
7/10
