This was a fun experience for all of the s young and old. Learning how the Naxian cheese was very cool. If you are an animal lover you will love meeting all the animals on the farm. Our hosts prepared a lovely meal and were very informative on local culture. Do know this is not a dress-up adventure, casual clothes as you will want to feed the goats and hold the babies if there are any.
Our family of 4 (kids ages 18 & 21) had a wonderful time at the farm. The food was absolutely delicious (so was the wine and the cheese). We had fun meeting the animals, learning about the process and farming life on Naxos, and about the family’s history in general. We would definitely recommend it! A highlight of our trip to Naxos!
Wonderful local farm. Observed the cheese making process. We had a tour of the farm and the family made us breakfast. They made us feel like we were friends visiting and nit strangers on a tour.
Yianni and Kostantino greeted us with smiles. We were shown around the farm, got to see the chickens, pigs, and goats and sheep. They have a lovely garden from which they prepare a snack for guests. Both showed us the process of making cheese and we had a hands on experience. It takes about 3 months before the cheese can be enjoyed. We were able to try some that was made presumably by others months ago. Highly recommend. It was always on my bucket list to learn how to make cheese. Now I can cross this one off my list. Go and have fun!
We had wonderful transportation to the farm. So glad I didn’t have to drive myself. Driver was so kind and helpful with sightseeing suggestions. The farm is very authentic and a true representation of life in Naxos. I loved it because I am interested in agriculture, gardening, and cooking. The farmers were very knowledgeable and I learned a lot! Definitely a highlight of my trip. Do this is you want a non-traditional sightseeing adventure.
This place is great to visit while in Naxos. We were able to make cheese and see how long the process takes for good cheese. We fed the goats and the sheep. Had some great food. We were educated on what free range goats and sheep are. Naxos seems to be the only place that has it.
A charming family experience with a local Greek family that we thoroughly enjoyed. The food, the cheese making, the farm and the animals were so amazing but the real gem is getting to know the family and spending the day at their home. Would highly recommend this tour to do something that will make your top Greek excursion list.
We met Giannis and Katerina on a windy day in May and felt like we spent the afternoon with family! What a fantastic and unusual experience to help us get to know Naxos off of the beaten path! We first visited over local food and wine and then went on a tour of the farm while Katerina told us about the challenges and rewards of running a multigenerational farm. The animals, the vineyard, and the view were worth the trip alone. The cheese-making was a new experience and it was one of the highlights of our entire trip! How wonderful that this couple has opened their home and their farm and invited us in!
