What people are saying about Zakynthos

This was a great day out with our guide Theodore who was friendly and helpful, giving us lots of information about the area and answering all our questions. He also volunteered to take family photos at all the scenic viewpoints. The minibus tour was great but the high light of the trip had to be the boat excursion to Navagio (shipwreck) beach where you get to spend an hour before being taken to the blue caves. I was amazed how far they took the boat in to the caves, we were lucky that at one of the caves the water was not too choppy and were able to take a quick swim here too. Theodore didn’t join us on the boat trip but his colleague Kostas was also very pleasant. After the boat trip there is a quick lunch stop at a local taverna which was okay - my wife says her prawns were amazing. A quick stop at the oldest olive tree on the island and then back to be dropped if at our accommodation. A thouroughly good day and I felt it was great value.

Great tour! Our guide picked us up from our hotel and gave us great information about the island and places to see! He came with us on the boat and was a fantastic photographer for us as we visited the blue caves and shipwreck beach. The boar captain was extremely skilled and flexible to what we wanted to see and how much time we wanted to spend on the beach. The organizer was extremely helpful and communicative, and was flexible on start time which was great for us as we flew to the island that morning and needed a later start!

This was a fantastic experience! We visited the Shipwreck and went swimming in the sea then our guide took us to use stunning blue caves! We swam in 1 Cave and were able to get off the boat in another Cave to look right inside. I'd recommend this trip to anyone who loves an adventure

Trip was very nice organised however not in the schedule mentioned in the description. George - tourguide was funny and relaxed.

매우 만족한 투어였습니다. 덕분에 평생 기억에 남을 것 같습니다. 시작할때 비가 와서 걱정했는데 기다렸다가 출발해주셔서 감사합니다.
