Great night of history and delicious food! - The second of our fantastic tours through this provider, and just as wonderful as the first (which was the private half day tour of the island). This was a walking tour with extensive history and sightseeing around Naxos old town and the Venetian castle. Dinner was at one of the most highly recommended and quaint restaurants on the island. George, our tour guide, shared his extensive knowledge of the area, and provided a selection of local food that we all loved. It was a wonderful evening and one we hold fond memories of. Can’t thank our guide enough for the experiences we had.

This was great! Such a good way to start a vacation - We are on our honeymoon & booked this tour our first night in Naxos. It was great to be guided around & hear the history of the island as well as taste all of the local cuisine. The guides were so nice and so knowledgeable. Couldn’t recommend this more!

Our guide, Spyros, taught us so much about the beautiful island of Naxos, and we got to eat authentic Greek food which was soo so good. It was an amazing experience and Spyros does such a great job. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

A tasty tour of Naxos! - Alex, our tour guide, was an absolute delight and we had so much fun tasting and eating a variety of cheeses, condiments and a yummy dinner. Alex explained the history and background of Naxos and its foods, and took us into the castle region where we were amazed at the views and the labyrinth of pathways. If you want a personalised and tasty tour of Naxos, I highly receommend this tour!

Loved this informative and fun walking and food tour with Alex! - Our Guide Alex shared his outstanding knowledge of history of the town and castle and directed us to some wonderful establishments to sample the food. Alex was well-informed, friendly and professional, and showed us a great time! The food was excellent and we enjoyed learning about the history of the castle and the town. Alex and George were both friendly and informative, and I'd highly recommend even for anyone with children to take this tour.

Islander insider - This was such a great personal experience. We learned about the island and got to try local food that we may not have thought to order that was out of this world. Our tour guide was amazing had and so much passion when she spoke!

Waste of money - The description of this trip was terrible. Reading the description, we thought we were going on a tour of a private restaurant, having a tour of the restaurant, but we were not. We were picked up, brought to a public part of the island and to a restaurant with 100's of other people in it. It was not a private experience at all. We could and should have just went into the town on our own and found a restaurant to go to, again, on our own. This was a really stupid experience and a big waste of time and money. Never again!
