Frequently Asked Questions about Zante Sightseeing Tours

Zante has very different coastlines. What kind of tours do you offer?

Our Zante tours showcase the island's epic contrasts. We offer scenic excursions to the dramatic, cliff-backed west coast with our Navagio Viewpoint Tour and Porto Limnionas Fjord Tour, wellness trips to the Xigia Natural Spa, and relaxing tours of the vast, sandy southern bay, home of the famous sea turtles.

How can I experience the famous Shipwreck Beach (Navagio) on your tour?

Our Navagio Viewpoint Tour takes you by private car to the stunning clifftop overlook for that iconic photograph. To see the wreck from the sea, we can arrange a transfer to a boat tour. It is important to know that landing on the beach itself is often restricted by authorities for safety, but the views from above and from the water are unforgettable.

Which tour gives me the best chance to see the famous Caretta caretta sea turtles?

The Laganas Bay & Turtle Tour is the best choice. Your driver can arrange a transfer to a responsible glass-bottom boat trip that operates within the National Marine Park of Zakynthos. October is a great time for this, as the bay is quieter, offering a more serene and respectful turtle-spotting experience.

I'm looking for a tour to a unique swimming spot. What do you recommend?

We have two fantastic options. The Porto Limnionas Fjord Tour takes you to a stunning rocky inlet with deep, crystal-clear turquoise water, perfect for diving and snorkeling. For a different experience, the Xigia Natural Spa Tour takes you to a unique cove where therapeutic sulphur springs flow directly into the sea.
