Overview

Naxos is really a big island to see everything in one day.What we offer you is the chance to see the highlights of Naxos in an 8h tour so you ll get an overall idea what Naxos is about,its history,its past and its present.
Especially about the north part of the island , driving on those whirlwind narrow streets isn t as easy as it seems and what we offer is the oppportunity to travel in safety and enjoy a day on the island.
On Tuesdays ,because archeological sites are closed, instead of Demeter s temple we visit Panagia Drosiani church ,the oldest in Balcan peninsula ans spend more time at Chalki and Apiranthos
