This half-day immersive experience takes you to the heart of Naxos’ mainland, at a majestic marble quarry, where one of the owners will guide you through the breathtaking site. Learn about ancient and modern extraction methods, quality standards, and the many stories hidden within the marble itself. After almost two full hours in this otherworldly landscape, you will gain deep appreciation for this precious gift of Nature and the awe-inspiring human craftmanship required to extract it. You will then visit an ancient quarry, active until the 6th century BC. Here, you’ll witness the extraordinary legacy of the early Naxian craftsmen through the unfinished yet iconic statue (Kouros), a silent reminder of the island’s long artistic lineage.
