Perfect way to see Naxos in a Day - We had Jacob as our guide and a skilled bus driver as his partner, we were picked up on the main road of our hotel. We had the opportunity to visit several small villages and learn about the culture. There are many opportunities for scenic pictures and my kids learned a lot from the stories shared by the guide. If you’re in Naxos for a short while, this trip was very informative and packed with a lot to do.

Naxos Highights - Very knowledgeable tour, in air conditioned bus. Great tour for those that aren't in Naxos for more than a day or so. Tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable without being over informative.

Highly recommend this trip - well paced, a great day out and something for everyone. - Fantastic way to see and learn more about Naxos. Our guide Jacob was excellent in his knowledge of the island and his brilliant storytelling. The driver was so skilled in getting us to each point sometimes through narrow roads and towns. The tour itself was well paced and had something for everyone. Well worth it!

Great way to see the island - The tour was fantastic and if you don’t want to drive like us, a great way to see the island. A lot of the roads are on cliffs so if you’re afraid of heights I’d sit on the left of the bus. Jacob (our guide) and John (our driver) were great at what they do! We got driven safely around difficult terrain (especially for a bus) and Jacob gave us some Greek mythology insights as well as recommendations at each stop for food and drink. We got our souvenirs from the talented potters of the island too which were reasonably priced and beautifully crafted.

Excellent way to learn about Naxos and see highlight attractions - Jacob was an enthusiastic and entertaining guide, providing facts and interesting stories from Greek mythology. Balance of time was great, with free time for lunch, swimming and shopping, as well as guided tours with plenty of information about historical sites and island crafts. Our driver Jon was a true professional. Tripod highly recommended.

Entertaining and Informative Trip - My husband and I loved the tour. Our guide Iakovos/ Jacob was fantastic, very passionately explained the history of Naxos and very patiently answered all our queries. We loved his demonstration especially at the olive press, pottery house and the Kouros of Apollonas. The view from the top was stunning too. Would also like to appreciate our driver Mr. Leonardo who enhanced our trip with additional information here and there. All in all, we had a great time, fanatastic time management, informative and warm. Greeks are very kind and warm people. Good luck!

Naxos Sights Tour - It was a great way to learn the history and myths about Naxos. It was also a nice group of sights to see. The tour guide and the driver of the bus were both excellent at what they each did.
