Absolutely amazing tour! Natasha was the best tour guide as she was so knowledgeable and friendly!! She was so accommodating to my mother who needed a little extra help. The food was excellent and I couldn’t believe the amount we tasted. From donuts, to wine and cheese, olives and capers, to a full sit down meal that we shared. It was one of the highlights of my trip and I would recommend to anyone.

Can't say enough about Maria Daphne as our guide. Her combination of friendliness, warmth and thorough knowledge of Naxos made our food tour through the town a delight. Not only does she know about the food (and the places that serve it) but her ability to weave in history and culture made this an unforgettable experience and the highlight of our trip there.

Natasha was amazing! Not only was she personable, but she was extremely knowledgeable as well. She walked us through Naxos Town, sharing all about the rich history as we tasted Naxian foods. She took us to some places we never would have found on our own. We began with a chicken pie that was absolutely delicious! We tasted a variety of cheese, drank citron and riki, ate orange pie and feasted on a full meal of soup, bread, olives, fried potatoes, salad, moussaka and zucchini fritters. I have never had a food tour end with a full meal. I would highly recommend this tour!
