What our Guests say about their experience
Η εμπειρία μας από τα Κόκκινα Βοτανικά ήταν πολύ όμορφη καθώς είχαμε την ευκαιρία να μάθουμε πολλά νέα πράγματα για τα βότανα, την ιστορία του τόπου και άλλες πληροφορίες. Τα παιδιά ήταν πολύ φιλόξενα και έκαναν πολύ ευχάριστη την επίσκεψη μας! Το συνιστώ σε όποιον αναζητάει μια πρωτότυπη και εκπαιδευτική πρόταση κατά την διάρκεια της επίσκεψης του στην Νάξο!
Excellent location, very friendly people. Highly recommended!
We were met by Kostis and Christina on this scenic rural path, where we discovered its history and many other interesting facts. I felt so relaxed and at home, while learning so much along the way. I’ve been having some lower back pain, so Kostis was kind enough to step in and plant my herb for me. It was such a thoughtful gesture that brought me so much joy! Great for someone in their golden years, like me.
Kostis and Christina are amazing hosts. We loved walking through tbe beautiful herbal garden in naxos, learning about local plants and even gettng our hands dirty to plant our own herd! We just whanted to escape the crowds and expirience the authentic side of the island
Beautiful place, friendly hosts and a very enjoyable experience! I loved learning about the local herbs and the location is very convenient! Highly recommended!

Φύτεψα το δικό μου φασκόμηλο!!! Είναι όμορφο να υπάρχει αγάπη κ μεράκι γι αυτό που κάνουν!!! Ευχαριστούμε πολύ για όλα!!! Θα σας ξανά επισκεφθούμε σίγουρα!!!
Μια αξέχαστη εμπειρία που συνδυάζει μοναδικές μυρωδιές και εξαιρετικό καταρτισμένο προσωπικό. Σας ευχαριστούμε πολύ ❤️
Amazing experience!! Friendly staff. Thank you!
What a wonderful experience. It was nice to go out of the city a bit and engage in an experience with people who are so nice. The tour was interesting and informative. Nice conversation about herbs, flowers, chickens and sustainable growing. Even got to watch a kitten get away from its’ mama. Cute. If you are into herbs and growing or interested in meeting local people, this might be for you. They offered refreshments and served an herbal tea that energized me. Had a great time.
Ο κήπος με τα βότανα είναι μια ενδιαφέρουσα και πρωτότυπη ιδέα. Μπορείς να αλληλεπιδράσεις με την φύση και μάθεις πολλά πράγματα. Ήταν χαλαρά και ωραία. Το ζευγάρι που λειτουργεί και συντηρεί τη ο κτήμα είναι φιλόξενο και μας έκανε να νιώσουμε σαν να είμαστε στον δικό μας κήπο.Εγώ θα ξανά έρθω του χρόνου να δω και το φυτό μου!
Αυθεντική βιωματική εμπειρία και δημιουργικές δραστηριότητες στη ναξιακή φύση!!! Όλοι γινόμαστε μικροί κηπουροί!!! Είχε λίγη δροσιά αλλά οι ιδιοκτήτες είχαν φροντίσει για φλις κουβερτάκι...
An amazing experience with smiley locals in botanist lovers at friendly farm 😊
Πρωτοποριακο εγχειρημα .Πολυ ευγενικο προσωπικο.Μια αξεχαστη εμπειρια!!!Μη το χασετε.
A quiet and peaceful place to be. We joined the activity to learn about the herb's but we learned a lot more. How locals enjoy their winter and good places for food in the villages. This experience is having their first steps but their foundations are rock solid. We had an amazing time !!! 🌱😍
Ένα μέρος με φιλοξενία. Γεμάτο μυρωδιές, χρώματα και αξεχαστες αισθήσεις. Μαθαίνουμε να δουλεύουμε την γη. Οση θεωρία σε βιβλία και βίντεο εχώ δει μέχρι να πιάσω την τσάπα... αιώνας. Ήταν λίγο κουραστικό και είχε λίγο ήλιο αλλά στο τέλος κατάλαβα τον εαυτό μου καλύτερα. Μπορώ να πω το εκτίμησα την ηρεμία και την ενέργεια του μέρους. Βέβαια τα παιδία είναι ακόμη στην δημιουργία του τελικού χώρου....
