What a great tour. The guide had fantastic knowledge of the area and history of how the island turned into what it is today. He picked us up on time and had everything planned out to our liking. Would recommend him to everyone.

My name is Nassos and I live in the island of mythical Ariadne, Naxos. I am a kindergarten teacher (kids form 4 to 6 yrs old), as my main occupation. I love working with kids, contacting them each and every day makes me feel young and enthousiastic about life at its simplicity! Apart from my degree as a Kindergarten teacher, I have a degree in Educational Robotics and New Technologies and its use at school. Also, I've studied Theater and I've created - with 2 other colleagues - a Theatrical group with kids (aged 4 to 15) performing in acting. I also love sports, especially basketball, music and dancing. My passion for my island lead me to study a lot about its history and the in heritage my ancestors passed over. So I decided to get involved in the last years with local tour operators, offering guided tours. I love meeting people from all over the world and guide them not only to see the -plenty- highlights my island has to offer but mostly feel the glory of history and culture, feel the energy of the landscapes, feel the emotions of the unique Naxian sky and fall in love with places. I really I love the island and I'm feeling lucky to live here, in "the Paradise on Earth" as the famous Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis said. So I'm looking forward to show you around! Walk through the narrow alleyways heading to the Castle of Chora, admire the archeological sights, travel through the mountain zone and meet unique villages, taste delicious local products and try recipes, enjoy the breathtaking Naxian sunset by the sea and much more. . . 6 years of guiding experience. I do not have a license to give tours inside museums.

We had a lovely half day with Nassos in Naxos. He drove us around a lot of the island showing multiple excellent sites including an olive press, a distillery, and a vineyard. He gave us excellent historical context and adjusted the tour to fit our interests. He even arranged a few local bites along the way and capped off the day with a private tour of a vineyard including wine tasting and charcuterie as the sun set in the background. We truly enjoyed every part of this tour.
This was a fabulous tour! Seeing the mountain villages of Naxos gave us a glimpse into what life here was really like before tourism- saw many mountain villages, churches and Nassos did a great job on giving a history of the island. Views were spectacular. Nassos was a great host and guide, excellent communication before - just fabulous!
Our guide, Nassos, was wonderful! Knowledgeable, passionate, fun, great recommendations. We were fortunate to have him as our guide for two tours. To show how much we appreciated him, we even showed up at a football game one afternoon where he was the sports commentator!
Great tour. Nassos was very knowledgeable, warm, and entertaining. He had great stories and we enjoyed the time we spent with him. He adjusted the schedule based on the kids in group (he got all the kids ice cream when they need a pick me up). We had a friend recommend him to us and we would do the same!
He did a fantastic job!! He was very knowledgeable and personable. I could not recommend him enough. What a great experience!! His personality also made it so much fun. We all loved it!!
