Today Naxos is a serene, idyllic island beloved by visitors, but centuries ago during the Middle Ages it had a turbulent history that was dictated by Venetian lords, Byzantine rulers and Ottoman conquerors. This tour is a great opportunity to unlock the mysteries surrounding the island’s past. As you walk through Halki, the oldest village in Naxos, you’ll begin to understand the rich history of the island’s most fertile valley, Tragea. Embark on an enchanting 3-hour hike through the valley and its main town, and you’ll be amazed at how little the culture, architecture and local way of life changed since the 6th century. You’ll even get to taste a unique local citrus-based liqueur.
