- RazorfishLittle Rock, Arkansas5,287 contributionsPicturesque street with whitewashed buildings and bougainvilleaThis is a narrow picturesque street with whitewashed buildings and faux cobblestone walkway. There are numerous shops, cafes and churches. My wife and I were there in October, so we missed the summer crowds and heat. The young girls posing for selfies was irritating, but could be overlooked. The offshoots of alleyways were just as pretty as the main street. I liked the ambiance of Mykonos but enjoyed Oia’s beauty more.Visited October 2022Travelled as a coupleWritten 20 September 2023

Simply walk through the narrow paths and just admire the flowers and beautiful architecture all around you. I did not experience any touting while walking through, so that was pleasant.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten 31 October 2023

The shops are tourist shops exclusively. Still it is pretty.Visited January 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 29 February 2024

Bought a few pieces there yesterday. Once at the cashier they did "special price for you buddy" if I payed with as much cash as possible.
But once got home, I checked the prices online and it turned out they overcharged me a lot for the clothes. Even with their "discounted" prices it was highly overpriced.
One item was listed for €180 in the shop but could be bought online for €69 etc etc.
Too bad, I would have come back to buy more, now I just feel cheated.

The entire Mykonos town is gorgeous and charming. This street and the surrounding area are important historically and while a bit too touristy and crowded when ships are in port well worth a visit. There are gorgeous high end shops and restaurants and this is the center of Mykonos nightlife.

The longes and widest shopping street in Mykonos, location of many high-end shops, both chains and independent. A shopper's paradise, but it has nothing to do with the Greek Isles. Because it is not narrow, it is not congested like the other shopping streets. Not my cup of tea.

Old Town Mykonos is full of wonderful small lanes and streets. All in (mostly) white and blue. With the occasional trees and colorful plants and flowers (in purple). On the streets of Mitropoleos and Enoplon Dinameon you will have quite some traffic with the miniature trucks roaming the streets, which can be a bit annoying. On this street though there was little to no traffic, so it's pretty relaxing.
Lots of independent stores and arts&crafts shops. Lots of souvenirs as well of course. But for us it wasn't about shopping, we just enjoyed walking through these beautiful streets. And for that it was just great.

Mainly designer shops, chic and elegant. Well kept. Your bound to walk down it but unlikely to know that this is the 'famous' shopping avenue. Not cheap but Mykonos generally isn't. To be honest, the old town is full of designer boutiques, shops, restaurants and coffee shops. It comes alive at night. Just walk and get lost in the alley ways! It is so easy to get carried away and buy! I am dreading to look at my bank account.

The street is lovely, as many others in Mykonos. This one is famous because of its numerous shops offering luxury items from premium international brands. International expensive products for international jet setters. Nothing special, nor typical.

Are restaurants and shops here, closed during the month of October? I plan to visit w/c 16 October.

Sorry, just saw your question.....There was a gyro place nestled somewhere within the streets near Matoyianni St that had an outdoor dining area that smelled amazing. A couple from our tour group ate there and said it was good. If you are going to be in Athens, there were 2 places that we ate that were amazing- Girgos near Athens Zafolia hotel (great gyros and shaved meat) and Taverna o Peinaleon (great authentic Greek cuisine). And there was great gelato at DaVinci!

Does anyone know how far this street is from the mykonian ambassador relais
Written 24 July 2018
We stayed at a different MyConian property but they provided transportation to and from every day. I would suggest reaching out to the hotel. I believe your hotel is closer so i would think it's about 15-20 minutes. Ours took about 30 minutes

Hi..I am visiting Mykonos on 18th April 2018...Till what time Shops remain open in Matoyianni street at that time of year?
especially clothing showrooms and Bars?
I have also read on TripAdvisor about Night shopping street.
it It open when I will visit?
Thanks
waiting for ur response.
Written 13 March 2018
All shops should be open in April. Not sure about exact opening time, but I would assume it is 8 or 9 AM. Cant tell you what time "bars" open tho'. Most shops stay open late, but it depends on the cruise ships. If one is in port, nothing closes until there gone is a general rule. Have been there in April and all was well, everything open and crowded, so go and enjoy.

Giong in October (cruise stop). Are walking maps for Matoyianni available, and if so, where? thanks...
Written 9 August 2017
Although is the main street , it s not soo difficult to find your way on it without any maps. Being October will be even more easier as it will not be crowded at all. Enjoy your time there !
Written 9 August 2017
Yes, but...Streets are narrow, uneven, and steep in most places. Most are cobblestone surfaces, so make sure your stroller has some kind of shock absorbers and rubber tires. If so you should be OK
