Walk in Naxos before Dinner - Our guide, Renna, was incredibly knowledgeable and did a great job making the tour interesting. I would recommend it to anyone going to Naxos.

Great way to see the city - This was a great way to learn about the history of Naxos City. Also a great way to learn your way around the twists and turns of the city, so I’d suggest doing it early in your visit. Vicky was fantastic and informative, and we loved spending extra time with her during the tasting after the tour. The tasting by the way, is basically a full meal! We really felt like this fulfilled our hopes of authentic Greek cuisine experience. Highly recommend!

The tasting was amazing - Went with my mom. The sunset was pretty spectacular, however very crowded but that’s out of anyone’s control. Our tour guide Vicky was amazing and a lot of fun to talk to, lots of history discussed which was imperative to the tour and the castle. After the sunset, we went to have dinner at such a delicious spot, can’t remember the name, but the food was bountiful and the company was great. I would recommend over and over. Especially if your a foodie :)

Excellent, knowledgeable, personal in that she was able to answer all our questions. The food tasting was great. - The pinnacle was reaching the Monument of Apollo at sunset. Our guide was impeccable on the timing. Our walk through Naxos Old Town was super educational.

Great tour, poor timing for sunset - Beautiful tour of old Naxos - stunning views.
The only drawback was missing the sunset at the Portara which was the intent of the described tour. The guide gave us a long Greek mythology explanation which I think should’ve been done at the top rather than at the bottom of the hill. The timing was poor.

Too many people - I was very disappointed with this tour. We went to the designated meeting point and we spoke to a few people who passed us. They told us the meeting point changed. We were never notified!
Then, the tour was supposed to be for 10. The actual number was 19! It was way too large a group for this tour.
We heard about 50% of what the guide said. If you look at the locations visited, you could visit them yourself.

Cancelled - This was cancelled because the tour guide was sick. So we don’t know how it was. Only found out earlier the day of the tour.
