Embark on a journey uphill to the medieval castle of Naxos, where stunning vistas await at the top. As you meander through the charming alleys of the old town, visit an 800-year-old Venetian wine cellar and gallery.

During this intimate mini-symposium, admire replicas of ancient Greek vases illustrating Dionysian myths and feasts, brought to life through captivating storytelling. Conclude your tasting with a sip of rakomelo — raki infused with honey and cinnamon — the true nectar of the gods.
