Description

Experience the beauty and history of Naxos on a guided bus tour that takes you through the island’s most captivating sites. Begin your journey with convenient pickup from central locations, then travel to the lush valley of Gyroula to see the ancient marble Temple of Demeter, one of Greece’s most significant monuments.

Continue to the charming village of Damalas, where you’ll discover the traditional process of olive oil making at a restored press museum. Visit a local pottery workshop and learn about the art passed down through generations, connecting you to the island’s rich cultural heritage.

Stroll through Chalki, known for its Venetian architecture and vibrant atmosphere. Enjoy free time to explore the village’s renowned Vallindras distillery, browse unique ceramic galleries, and shop for local products and souvenirs at your own pace.

Next, head to Apiranthos, nestled at the foot of Mount Fanari. Here, you’ll have ample time to savor local dishes in cozy tavernas, admire marble-paved alleys, and soak in panoramic views of Venetian towers. The tour then continues past Koronos village and the historic emery mines to the seaside village of Apollonas.

Relax by the picturesque harbor, take a refreshing swim, or enjoy a seaside coffee before visiting the impressive unfinished Kouros statue, a monumental marble figure lying in place for over 2,500 years. The tour concludes with a scenic drive along the west coast, returning you comfortably to your original pickup point. Book now to secure your spot on this unforgettable Naxos adventure!
