This was such an amazing experience! So glad I did it! Maggie was so helpful. Definitely a must do in Naxos.

Marble carving experience
This was one of the highlights of our trip to Greece. I would absolutely do this again when we return to Naxos. You get to learn the traditional techniques of marble carving and then carve your own souvenir. All while snacking on local fruits and cheeses.

Creative Afternoon Marble Carving
My family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Maggie. She was very patient and skilled teaching different techniques and helping us make the most of our marble pieces. Maggie also provided water, iced tea and delicious snacks. We love our marble souvenirs. Thank you!
C
Unique, relaxing experience that you can't miss!
Maggie was very patient and hands-on in teaching us. Once she taught us the basics, she gave us the space to get absorbed in our own carvings. We had a nice snack break with tasty treats and coffee. The outdoor working area is beautiful. Getting to traditionally carve marble from Naxos and take it home was such a memory.

Great activity with teens
Maggie was a great teacher and host. She helped us all make something we were happy with and proud of. She treated us to iced tea, water, cookies, cheese and crackers, and watermelon. Our teen daughters enjoyed this challenging but relaxing activity. I would highly recommend this experience.

Great learning experience!
Maggie was a great teacher! Such fun! I would never have imagined I could have created something in a short time. Makes me want to do it again!

Marbelous Mrs Maggie
Maggie was well organized, taught us a lot about marble carving, and helped when needed. Her farm is a lovely setting for the experience and the local snacks were wonderful.

We had a good time on...
We had a good time on this experience. It did feel a bit unorganzied and had a strange flow, but overall we had a good time and learned about the craft of marble carving while creating our own "masterpieces"
D
Truly a gem!
Really amazing experience! You’ll experience a real art form with an exceptionally trained, patient and kind expert. You won’t get this opportunity again!
