01The host
Meet Katerina Rota.
I'm Katerina Rota, an experience coordinator, storyteller, and passionate local, born and raised on the beautiful island of Naxos. My greatest joy is sharing the island's hidden corners, flavors, and traditions in a way that feels both personal and unforgettable. With over a decade of experience in storytelling, education, and creating meaningful connections, I founded Real Wanderers in 2021, an idea that began with small, family-friendly experiences and quickly grew into a collection of immersive journeys designed for curious travelers. As someone who calls this island home, my goal is simple: to welcome you as a guest but leave you feeling like a local.
Real Wanderers isn't about sightseeing; it's about feeling a place · through its tastes, stories, and traditions. Every experience is crafted with heart, blending Naxos' deep-rooted heritage with moments of discovery and genuine connection.

“Truly an amazing experience, you'll have trouble finding better in Greece. Katerina explained very well the whole process of olive oil making, and also shared other traveling recommendations. You really can see her passion and competence in what she does and how much she cares for visitors' satisfaction.”

“We had an amazing time doing the Naxos Family Experience in Eggares Olive Oil Museum. I highly recommend this experience. Katerina was an incredible host and so good with our 3-year-old. It was educational, we had tasty local food made with the olive oil they make there, drinks, we played Ancient Greek games, and made a lot of great memories.”

“We attended Katerina's family experience in Eggares Olive Press with our two kids. Great experience for parents and kids, learning a lot about olive oil and tasting amazing foods. The kids played at their beautiful backyard, they did gardening, crafting and learned a lot about Ancient Greece, while we were relaxing under their olive trees.”

“My son baked, painted, tasted olive oil, and played while I was able to enjoy a delicious meal and take pictures. He enjoyed it so much that he asked if we could return to Naxos next year just to take the tour again. So lovely, well planned, and Katerina is so kind to children.”
