Naxos: Tour de senderismo de medio día por el campo y iglesias bizantinas

We had a wonderful day with Nektarios as our guide. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel, we knew it would be a fantastic day. He greeted us warmly, gave us a wonderful introduction to Naxos Island on the ride to our starting point, and got us set up with hiking poles. He guided us on the trail hiking at our comfortable pace and assisted with difficult spots with steep inclines/declines and tricky rocks. Nektarios was so knowledgeable about the area, history, Greek mythology, health, and all the trees and vegetation we saw on the paths. We learned so much from him and he thoroughly answered our questions. He always made sure we were happy and comfortable at each of our stops. Nektarios is such a personable man and easy to talk with. We had a delightful day!

We had the most wonderful time with our guide David. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. Truly made us feel even closer to the Greek Culture and history. And he was kind enough to lend me his walking sticks.

So this was our 2nd trip with Trekking Hellas during the week we spend on Naxos. And we highly recommend this one as well. This was a great walk/hike where we again learned so much more about the history of Naxos. We stopped and ate fruit off trees, visited churches, pet a horse. Ending with olive oil tasting which was amazing and we were able to purchase some to take back home. At this point our daughter was feeling a little overheated/exhausted and our guide David was so kind to sit with her outside in the shade while my husband and I finished the tasting. Definitely went above and beyond. We had a fantastic lunch in the last village and even had leftovers to take back to the hotel. This was a wonderful experience and we would definitely book with Trekking Hellas again. Everything from the initial booking process all the way through the actual hike was such a smooth process. Highly recommend.

What a wonderful experience! Anastasia guided us from Halki through farms and villages in the Hagea valley, and back to Halki. We stopped to chat with a friendly mule, to pick figs and grapes along the way, and to admire breathtaking scenery, churches and villages. It’s not mountain climbing, but there’s a lot of uphill walking, so be prepared. You get a real sense for the island’s culture and life, very different from the beaches and Chora. Highly recommended!

Our Naxian countryside hike was one of our favorite experiences during our two week vacation to Greece! David was an excellent guide, chatting pleasantly about the land, the history, the local culture and traditions. We crossed the countryside through several villages, stopping to see one of the oldest churches in the area and an old olive press factory. At the end of our hike, we sat outside for lunch at a lovely taverna before David drove us back to our hotel. It's an adventure not to be missed!
