Stakis and George are amazing tour guides who make sure that every person on the trip is having a good time. I have been studying abroad for the past 5 months, traveling nearly every weekend, and this is by far the best tour I have been on. Perfect amount of time spent at each location so that you can appreciate Zakynthos’s beautiful sights without getting bored. Highly recommend

Amazing tour that allows you to visit many places in one day. Fantastic opportunity to visit the beach and swim. Using a not too big boat for the excursion you can see the Blue Caves up close and enter some ... spectacular!

Amazing experience. 100% recommend! It’s been worth every euro I paid for it! Especially the guide George was very kind and took the best photos of me! I was solo travelling and I’m glad I choose this trip.

The itinerary was great, and we went to lots of beautiful locations. However, the mini bus was very hot and uncomfortable, which made it hard to enjoy the day.

Amazing day on Zakinthos! The whole Dali crew was amazing and George was the best guide ever and an even better human being! You can’t go wrong with Dali!
