I had an amazing time on the Naxos Highlights Bus Tour with Free Time for Lunch at Apeiranthos. Our guide, Angeliki, was absolutely incredible—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of fascinating insights about the island. Our driver, Spyros, was equally impressive, navigating the narrow and winding roads of Naxos with confidence and skill. The tour stops were well chosen and offered a great mix of history, culture, and scenic beauty. Apeiranthos was a particular highlight—charming, authentic, and the perfect place for a relaxed lunch. I felt like I got a true sense of the island’s spirit and history. Overall, I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Naxos. It’s a fantastic way to see the island, learn from a passionate local guide, and enjoy a worry-free experience.

This was a wonderful way to explore the whole island on Naxos without needing to rent a car. The bus was comfortable, the stops were all enjoyable, and the scenery from the bus was stunning.

The tour guide (Angelica) was knowledgeable and provided information but did not talk too much! The bus driver made me feel safe despite the terrain that I would have never wanted to drive by myself!
