You don't say which Mint version but assuming its 17 or
greater then you can just use the software manager
(or Synaptic) and install the python3 packages.

You need the base plus IDLE plus any other third party
libraries you use. (IDLE should pull in Tkinter as a
dependency).

It will probably only be version 3.5 but unless you are
obsessive about having the latest version it should be
adequate.
