Spectacular views and experiences
The best experience! We arrived in rain and wind.... we weren't sure what we would be able to do as the beach was not really an option. The tour... and especially with Stelios... was an amazing experience. Loved every minute of it! The Byzantine church, the olive oil tasting, the kitron tasting, the cute villages, the olive farms, the pottery making, the beauty of inland Naxos.... everything was wonderful and Stelios was the perfect guide! His passion and knowledge made it an over the top experience. We learned a lot and we laughed alot! We enjoyed it so much that we would do it again!

The history of Naxos
Stelios and Calli tours was incredible. The knowledge Stelios had to share with us was incredible. We traveled to meet places and more. Stelios knew everyone. It was like visiting family. Worth the money and the experience. We were with our adult children and everyone had a fun time.

Extremely Worth It on Naxos!
Our tour guide was amazing. We went to Chalki village, Apeiranthos village (lunch food was excellent), and we visited the Kitron distillery (more interesting and worth it than I imagined), the car was super clean and comfy and luxurious, water was provided, we went to the Temple of Demeter (built 100 years before the Parthenon and the earlier model for it, not to be missed), and Stelios was cool and suuuuper knowledgeable! We ended up taking an extra 1.5 hours because it was just so worthwhile. We went private and it was a GREAT day!
