Naxos Highlights Bus Tour with Free Time for Lunch at Apeiranthos

Ann_B, May 2026

Highly recommend this tour!

Highly recommend this tour! There are multiple pickup points in Naxos so finding your starting spot is easy and convenient. The tour itself was excellent. It was paced perfectly. I felt like we spent just the right amount of time at each spot. The stops were thoughtfully chosen and our guide gave interesting insights at each one. We basically saw the entire island in 8 hours. The tour bus was air conditioned and comfortable. However if you’re prone to motion sickness, I’d strongly advise taking something like Dramamine before the tour starts. Pro tip: Sit on the right side of the bus for better views of the landscape and sea.

Private Cruise: Explore Rina’s Cave & Enjoy Fresh Seafood Onboard

he Absolute Highlight of Our Trip. Worth Every Minute!

This private boat tour was hands down the highlight of our trip. We almost didn’t book it because of the drive from Naxos Town, but we are so glad we did. It was beyond worth it. The boat itself was incredible, and the entire experience felt special from start to finish. We learned so much about the island along the way, which made it even more meaningful. And the food… truly outstanding. Everything was so fresh and delicious, one of the best meals we had on the trip. We’re still talking about this experience and would 100% do it again the next time we’re in Naxos. Highly, highly recommend.

We loved the tour and...

We loved the tour and cooking experience! Everyone we met from the family was so friendly and fun, so much so that we felt like part of the family by the time we left. We got to taste amazing naxian cheese, wine and olive oil and learned some great recipes to use back home and remember Greece.

Excellent day trip around Naxos

Excellent day tour! We highly recommend this experience, a perfect way to get a taste of the mountain areas and villages of Naxos. Stelios was superb, knowledgeable, friendly and always keeping us at ease. His story telling and experience made this a truly fun experience. Pottery workshop visit and olive oil press/tasting stop were particular highlights! We’re so glad we did this!

Naxos Town Food Tour

Anna_K, Oct 2025

A great tour!

We absolutely loved our food tour! Liana was so sweet and knowledgeable about Naxos history and food. We stopped for wine and greek cheese, orange cake, fresh lemonade, an olive oil tasting, kitron, and finally an incredible shared meal. She also walked us to the castle and through the labyrinth which was so cool. It was such a fun and informative tour, and our group was wonderful. I would highly recommend!

Loved it!

We loved this boat trip. The stops were wonderful and we had such a great time meeting others on the boat. The swimming spots were great choices and we LOVED Koufonisia, such a cute town to visit and see. The lunch was great and I think the value for this trip was incredible, I would recommend to anyone going.

Naxos Half Day History and Culture Guided Tour

Dessa_M, Sep 2025

Fantastic 1/2 day tour that fits a lot in!

This was a fantastic 1/2 day tour of the island. It fits a lot in and takes you to sites and villages that are historical, cultural and not crowded. There are a couple of towns that have boutiques with unique items and cafes to grab a snack/coffee. This tour was very unique and special and I highly recommend it! Our tour guide was terrific! A young man named Thanos who grew up on the island of Naxos and is currently getting his masters in tourism , culture and history. Thanos speaks English beautifully and had a good sense of humor as well. It was very unique to have a tour guide that grew up on the island and was able to explain what it was like. He was also able to explain the culture on Naxos, the history and the Greek Orthodox religion. We were able to see Naxos through his eyes. We even drove through the town he grew up in as he pointed out his church, etc. This tour was very informative, enjoyable and a great way to see a lot of the island in a short amount of time. The views from some of the sites we visited and from the bus are breathtakingly beautiful! You just wouldn’t be able to enjoy the views like this if you are trying to drive a car yourself. We arrived back at 12:30 pm just in time for lunch and not too tired to do more later. Kudos to the driver George who navigated the winding roads with the big bus. I’m very glad I didn’t rent a car and instead left the driving in the hands of someone who lives here and knows how to navigate the mountainous, narrow and steep roads. Take this tour! You will be very happy you did.

Family Day Out

I would highly recommend this trip out. Its a full day and well organised. Beautiful scenery and a fantastic captian, who really understands the sea when winds are high. The staff went above and beyond - we're so informative of every stage of the trip. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed this experience together. Thank you!!

All-Inclusive Catamaran Day Cruise

Eric_G, Sep 2025

Great time in clear water

Amazing experience. We had 21 guests on the boat. It didn’t feel cramped and once everyone spread out it was nice. We had delicious food and our captain and first mate made sure our needs were attended too. Each stop we got to swim for about an hour that was perfect. The water was clear and it was fun to make new friends. It’s not a negative but, this a motor sail excursion. I assumed it was a full sailing trip. With the jib out and motor running you do get a little experience of sailing.

Naxos: Hike to the Top of the Cyclades - Mount Zas

David_T, Sep 2025

More Than Just a Hike to the Highest Point in the Cyclades

We had a great hike and learned a lot about Greek mythology, the history and culture of Naxos, and the Cyclades Islands. Nick and Nectarios are wonderful guides. They supplied us with hiking poles and helped ensure our safety throughout the hike. The hike itself was not very tiring, but you do have to pay close attention to the terrain, which has uneven rocks and loose gravel in some places. We took frequent breaks to take in the view and learn about Naxos and the story of Zeus. After returning to the trailhead, they provided a delicious light lunch. Highly recommended!
