Tour on Naxos
While on Naxos, you might wish to go on a tour around the island, in order to see the villages, some ancient Greek temples and other sights that reveal the past and the character of Naxos as a Greek island through time. There are a number of daily bus/coach tours leaving www.nikehuarache.it from Chora in the morning around 9am and returning back in the afternoon. Ask at a Travel Office for more details about the available tours on the island. In most cases, the island tours usually start at 9am and you return back to Chora early in the evening.
Visiting other islands
Some of you might wish to spend only a few days on Naxos and then go to see some of the islands nearby, such as Paros, Delos, Mykonos, Ios, Santorini/Thira, Donousa, Schinousa, Koufonisia, Iraklia. Altenatively, you might wish to stay on Naxos and go on daily trips to some of those islands. There are scheduled ferryboats (ask the Port Authority or a Travel Office for schedules) that go there as well as "charter" (sort of) boats that take you on a daily trip to other islands (ask at the Tourist Information Office for details).
If you are looking for a nice and quiet place, we suggest the island of Iraklia. There are small ferryboats going to the island daily. For accommodation on the island of Iraklia we suggest 'Marietta Rooms' (tel. 22850 71252). Please quote 'Naxos-Greece.NET' when contacting them.
