What to do and see in Zakynthos, Ionian Islands: The Best Sightseeing Tours
The Ionian Islands are splendid, cinematic paradise. The waters are bluest blue, the sands are achingly silky and smooth. Everything looks heavily Photoshopped. But that's just Mother Nature, in all her unspoiled glory. Zakynthos is the largest of the Ionian Islands, and it's as fruitful as it is beautiful, boasting a bounty of crops like olives and grapes. Music is a huge part of the local culture—you can catch a concert or festival almost any night of the week, and you'll be captivated by the sights and sounds of Zakynthos performers.

My son, daughter-in-law and I had booked a 14-day private tour of Athens, Crete, Santorini, Milos and Naxos with Private Tours Greece from May 1-14, 2020 and made a 30% down payment by credit card on 02/06/2020. All interactions with Private Tours Greece went smoothly and were professional and friendly. Then, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and my son's illness, on 03/13/2020, well ahead of the deadline for a fully-refundable cancellation, I asked Private Tours Greece to release all reservations it had made on our behalf, but to hold my deposit, in the hope that we might be able to reschedule our trip later in 2020 or in the spring of 2021. Private Tours Greece complied with my request and issued a credit voucher for the down payment I had made. As the pandemic continued to surge and Greece remained closed to visitors from the United States, on 4/17/2021, after essentially extending an interest-free loan to Private Tours Greece for over a year, I requested that my down payment be fully refunded and credited to the same credit card account to which it had been charged. Thereupon, Private Tours Greece staff claimed that the request for refund had been "forwarded" ... as it turned out later, to Alpha Bank. Nothing happened for a week. I then engaged in repeated e-mail exchanges with Private Tours Greece staff, only to be subjected to a stream of equivocations, obfuscations of the facts, and invalid excuses, including a claim that Private Tours Greece was doing me a favor by agreeing to a refund because the Greek government had allegedly given it the option to hold my funds indefinitely. I then contacted the general manager of the company, who sent me what purported to be a Greek language request to Alpha Bank (that I was unable to read) to issue the refund, along with further invalid excuses, never responding to my complaint that Private Tours Greece was in breach of its contractual obligation to issue a full refund of my down payment, not to mention doing the honorable thing, i.e., issue an immediate refund from an account he controlled directly, rather than blaming Alpha Bank for the delay by claiming that it "required" 10-15 "working" days to complete the request. Even that outlandishly ridiculous period has now expired! A complaint I submitted to Alpha Bank has received no response to date. It has now been nearly a full month since my refund request of 4/17/2021, and I may have to initiate legal action against Private Tours Greece ... with all the complexities and additional outlays and delays that would involve ... in order to reclaim my funds. The lesson to be learned here is that Private Tours Greece cannot be counted upon to honor its promises and contractual commitments. If there is any chance at all that you may have to cancel your trip, STAY AWAY!

We had the best day on the daytime semi private cruise. Unbelievably due to the current Covid situation there was just us and one other couple on board. Christina and the crew were all great and couldn’t do enough for us. Free flowing beer, wine and soft drinks. Appetisers served up before the most amazing lunch. Would highly recommend and Christina you did a truly fantastic job.

If You are interested in archeology, this place is really amazing! The first habitation at the site dates from the Late Neolithic times (at least the 4th millennium BC)., It was during centuries extended and gradually developed into one of the main urban centers and ports of the Aegean. The town's life came to an abrupt end in the last quarter of the 17th century BC, but we can still see traces of it´s quite sophisticated multi-storeyed buildings , it´s advanced drainage system and other elaborate features! Unfortunately none of the magnificent frescoes has been kept in situ. If You are not that interested in archeology, or You expect to find a heavily restored city like Knossos or Pompeji You might get disappointed and think it looks like a concrete-factory, so my advice is: Read as much as You can about ancient Akrotiri before You go there, or take a guided tour. At a very reduced price You can buy a 4-day-ticket valid for not only Akrotiri excavations but also the Archeological museum (very small and under renovation right now), Museum of prehistoric Thira (highly recommended before You visit the excavations!),Excavations of Ancient Thira on Mesa Vuono and The Museum of Icons and Ecclesiastical Relics of Pyrgos village
