Naxos village tour

Great tour of local villages, chances to stop and explore, terrific scenery. Sandy was very friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable and explained everything very clearly. Markis made sure we got from point A to B and back home safely. Well worth cost.

A Must Do

Really enjoyed our day trip exploring Naxos villages today. Guide Thanos and driver Dimitris produced a fun, informative and engaging experience. Tour group of 14, ages from 20s to 70s, Auzzies, USA and Ireland nationals and by the end of the day we felt like friends. Highly recommended.

Great way to see Naxos

This tour was incredible. We got to travel around Naxos to see parts of the island we never would have seen on our own. We loved the olive oil/olive tasting, and exploring different villages to get a feel of the “real” Naxos. Our guide was amazing, he gave us so much history and insight. Highly recommend!!
