Amazing Naxos experience you wouldn’t expect! - We booked this tour for early July 2025 and for 4 people and loved every minute of it. Our tour guide was Gregori and he was delightful! We visited 3-4 different locations by car/van and despite the intense heat, Gregori made sure to check often that we were comfortable and having fun. As he drove us into the center of the island, he provided history about the things we could see and shared his personal experiences from living in Naxos with us. The tour company was very easy to work with us in adjusting our schedules to make sure we would be able to see all the things with heat causing closures at some places. Gregori provided a deeply personal experience for the entire group showing us his favorite and most treasured places to see while giving us a local living experience. Our trip to Naxos was so much richer having learned about what makes the island so special and we’re grateful to Gregori for giving us an unforgettable experience on our travel journey.

Brilliant tour to get a sense of Naxos - Great tour of the interior of Naxos including beautiful villages, museums and important cultural sites. We visited the Temple of Demeter & its compact but lovely museum, Manolis Ceramics, the beautiful Neo-Classical village of Halki (including the renowned Fish & Olive and the Kitron Distillery), the mountain village of Apiranthos with its marble streets, drove past the marble mountain, and the lovely Olive Oil Museum in Eggares. The tour was made all the better by our wonderful driver and guide, Gregory whose love for the island was apparent in the informative and interesting commentary he provided and who is a true ambassador for Naxos. A fantastic trip which gave us a great sense of this wonderful island.

Naxos at its best - the tour through all the villages in the mountains, the monastery and historical areas like Demeter and the views were just phenomenal. we thoroughly enjoyed the shops, the potter, the people and the future. Our tour guide Gregory was fantastic and so kind and took very good care of us.

Full Day tour with fabulous Gregory - Gregory our host and driver is the absolute best!!! We spent a full day (2 couples) with him. Not only is he an incredibly joyful and knowledgeable person, he’s also an incredible guide. We were able to get a much better understanding of the Naxos inner island communities (including where he and his lovely fiancée live), but he also created a custom itinerary that let us experience some of the unique artisans on the island that create their own wares (a nice woman who is a master with the loom, an incredible sculptor, a 5 generational pottery family, an olive oil press etc). Ask for Gregory for your full day personal tour and you will not be disappointed!!!

Naxos amazing - Dimitri was very friendly and knowledgeable He gave us a great overview of the island and all the main villages. Only think is to explain clearly if you have lunch arranged and have dietary or monetary limitations.

Highlights of the island - It was a wonderful opportunity to see the highlights of the Isand of Naxos. Our guide, Demetri was knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great afternoon. Despite the fact that a couple of attractions were closed due to time of year Demetri made sure we saw as much as possible.

Not worth doing - Viator asked us to switch the day that we booked our tour to the next day so we did. But on the day that they asked us to switch to, the temple of Demeter was closed. Which that was a main reason for us to take the tour. Then our guide said that the statue of kourlos wasn’t included in our tour. So I pulled it up on my phone to show him. Then he took us. The guide told us that the olive museum would cost extra so we decided not to do it. After we got back I looked it up again . And the olive museum was supposed to be free. Don’t get me wrong I like to shop, but I felt that this tour was more of a shopping excursion than an informational tour! The guide did take us to different towns, but he did lead us into a lot of little shops. This tour was disappointing after experiencing other highlight tours in Greece. All of the other tours were very informative and took us to different villages but didn’t actually lead us into a bunch of shops!
