A great experience with true local flavour - Wonderfully informative, relaxed, enjoyable tour with Gina and driver Michael who are both very knowledgeable, interesting and engaged with local history and current affairs. The tour was very appropriate in terms of the time taken to walk between each of the villages, close to each other, visiting timeframe and variety. A beautiful lunch of traditional fare. No encouragement or pressure to purchase goods at outlets. I would genuinely recommend the tour to visitors to Naxos Island.

A tour that don't disappoint - This tour definitely offers the most authentic experience of island living. We tasted pure local goodies and we visited places that we would never explore on our own.

This is how you become a traveler, not a tourist. You leave ceiling like you’re leaving family. Vegan friendly, just ask - I chose this tour after communicating with the owner. Her attention to detail, ensuring we had vegan options at each location was amazing. If you are looking for something to connect you with the culture of the island, this is what you want. You won’t see large bus tours, and you won’t deal with large group of people. You will connect one on one with each owner of the locations that you visit. You can’t help but leave, wanting to help them. The food is amazing. We really enjoyed the walk to each location and seeing where everything we ate was grown and cultivated.

Naxos eating local - Had the best day on Naxos with the Mediterranean Diet Experience Tour. Our tour guides Katia and Elizabeth were delightful and so knowledgeable. Really can feel the love and pride they have for their island. Took us to see local restaurant and olive oil farm as well as giving us the history of the village. I would highly recommend!
