Guided tour on a comfortable bus at the most beautiful villages and hidden historical sights of Naxos with plenty of stops.
Your first stop is Demeter's Temple near Sangri. Apart from the impressive temple ruins, you will have the chance to visit the archaeological museum located in the same area and see the findings from the site. This monumental, all-marble temple was constructed in the late 6th century.
The next stop is Damalas, a cute little village in the heart of Tragea valley, where you can watch a demonstration at the only remaining traditional pottery workshop and visit the restored olive press, a few metres further.
Then we drive to Halki, a picturesque village where you can walk around the narrow marble alleys, visit the traditional citron distillery dating back to 1896 and have a coffee while enjoying the classy atmosphere.
Driving on to the mountainous part of Naxos, we stop at the famous village of Apiranthos, the "marble village" where you can stroll on the marble cobbled streets and take loads of photos. After that, we drive towards the northern part of the island and reach the northernmost edge at Apollonas. A small, typical Cycladic fishermen village, ideal for swimming or just relaxing at the cafes and taverns by the sea.
Before taking the coastal road back to town, we admire the impressive 10 meter statue, a colossal unfinished Kouros-style statue from 6th century BC. Driving back, you can admire the amazing views of Agia tower and the neighboring islands.
