Splendid Olive Experience - We highly recommend the Eggares experience. Nicoleta is a charming host, the fourth generation to oversee this special experience. Our tour leader, Katerina, conveyed the warm hospitality of Naxos and was enthusiastic about explaining traditional olive production. She told many lovely stories about her culture and made us laugh. We learned a lot about olive oil while having fun, baking bread and enjoying a delicious lunch with all local ingredients. While you can see a traditional olive press in many villages, you can only find Nicolette, Katerina, and Maya in Eggares. You will be glad you did.

Two hours of Olives and olive oil can't be bad - Come hungry because there are all kinds of olive treats and olive oil and bread and jam and it was just a wonderful experience. We saw the old fashioned methods of making olive oil and learned a lot about the mechanism of olive farming. Katerina was an exceptionally good guide and come up with Nicolette, shared a morning of treats and stories. There were four of us and we agreed it was a great experience.

Delightful afternoon experience! - This was one of the most enjoyable experiences on the island! We had such a good time - our tour guide/activity hostess was so friendly, personable & informative. She was an absolute joy! Everyone at the Museum shop were friendly and nice. This is a family - owned and operated establishment and they make you feel like part of the family.

Amazing, different experience! - We had so much fun doing the bread baking class with Katarina! It was just 7 of us in the class, and the perfect morning activity. The drive to the olive oil museum is pretty and easy to get to from Naxos town/Chora area. Definitely recommend booking this if you’re looking for something different to do!
