Stroll among olive trees, canes, and citrus fruits as you absorb the natural beauty of Melanes Valley. Then, marvel at two imposing Kouros statues - examples of ancient sculpture. Continue to Eggares citrus valley, described in poetic terms by nine-time Nobel Prize nominee, Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis, as "If paradise was on earth, it would be here". A guided tour of an old olive press with a stone mill follows, before getting behind the scenes with tasting samples of delicious cheeses, vegetables, and homegrown wines and raki in a local farm. Depending on the season, you may even witness cheese in the making! On a windless day, you may wish to take a short swim at the less popular Amitis Beach. Take a relaxing ride back in a breathtaking itinerary overlooking the ocean while processing the flood of information you ‘ve gathered in this unforgettable journey.

An easy route will take you on a journey through less-traveled pathways and – if you’re lucky – you may even spot some seagulls perched atop straw balls! Depending on your mood, you can take a swim in the azure, crystal-clear waters or just keep riding to the end. For those who join us during the sunset session, we recommend a short 2-minute hike to a seaside chapel to take in the stunning colors of the sunset while your guide will have a chat with the shark-shaped rock to leave you alone. Afterward, you can choose to go back the same way or trust your guide and let them take you back on a different route – hopefully. Make the most of your island stay and book with us now!

On the journey north, you'll visit the beautiful Byzantine church of Agios Mamas, known as the protector of shepherds. As you pedal your way to Halki, the artistic - and not only - capital of the island, you can choose to leave the bikes and take a leisurely walk through the village’s alleys and enjoy a sweet treat in one of the delightful cafes. Alternatively, your guide can conduct you on a 10-minute hike to one of Naxos' prettiest hidden Byzantine temples, situated in an area of amazing beauty. Are you and the group folklore enthusiasts? Let us know, and we can arrange a special visit to a delightful small family museum of folklore and/or a traditional pottery. Heading back will be something to look forward to as a local winery awaits. Unwind with a tasting of Naxos-produced wines, combined with extra virgin olive oil and fresh local cheese and vegetables - a truly divine tasting in a quaint and picturesque vineyard complete with a chapel, a threshing floor and a friendly and knowledgeable host.
