Detailed Description

Your tour begins at the meeting point near the Naxos Town Hall. You will gather in front of the marble statue to start your journey into the heart of the historic center. The guide leads you into the Kastro district, where you walk through the narrow, historic streets to understand the layout and history of the town.

As you continue, the guide shares practical recommendations for dining and local shops in the Old Town. You move through the cobbled paths and courtyards, observing the transition of the area as local activity slows down for the evening.
