I know we certainly couldn’t believe it! The Cyclidic architecture rivals that of a Mykonos or Santorini, and it’s easy to get lost in the maze of streets.
Sitting atop the Parikia Greece Old Town is a 13th-century Frankish castle. You’ll have fantastic views of the ocean from the walls of the castle ruins.

Our tour was packed with cruise ship passengers. 40 people to one guide who remarked that it was a big group. Unlike every other tour we were not even given a bottle of water. Most stops did not have any guidance - instead we were told it was “free time” for us to explore on our own. Although the guide did tell us which parts to explore. We made the most of it as we paid a lot and did not want to be distracted by the group size. The tour may have been better with a smaller group. It was a good way to see round the island. The guide was good and did her best to make the tour enjoyable.BackPacker405702

This was a great way to see the island and all of the main points as well as some of the small fishing towns. The tour guide was very informative and willing to answer any questions. The bus was comfortable with AC and each stop was unique and beautiful. It was one of my favorite tours so far!

It was a great way to see the whole island and get talked about the history of the island of Paros. We got to see the old port of Paros which is Paroikia and got to see the castle through the town. We then caught a ferry across to the island of Antiparos and the town was so picturesque. We then went to the village of Piso Livadi which is along the southern coast and had lunch there. From there we went to Lefkes which is known for its traditional architectures. then finally. the fishing village of Naoussa. Our tour guide was Maria she was amazing through the whole tour. You get picked up from your hotel and dropped back again. A great way to see the island of Paros. Recommended.X3574JVkatherinek

The free time to explore at each of the towns rather than having to stay together. I liked being free to watch the sights from the bus rather than driving and having to be careful of the traffic around us.
