    3. Shipwreck Beach and Blue Caves tour from Zakynthos

    4.8· 83 reviews

    Full-day land and sea tour — viewpoint at Navagio, glass-bottom boat to Shipwreck Beach, swim in the Blue Caves, plus insights into local history.

    Dannis, our guide, was incredibly helpful. He picked me up from my hotel and explained each sight we visited. He also took many photos for me. There was a slight issue with his boss trying to call my unused phone and not responding to my TripAdvisor message, but Dannis was able to find me. Although we couldn't take the boat due to the weather, we still enjoyed a wonderful day. It was definitely worth the cost.bellaw494

    4.6· 19 reviews· 5 hours

    Half-day tour from Katakolo Port — visit an olive oil mill, learn about production, and enjoy tastings with local bread and lunch.

    The tour was lovely, as we celebrated my mom's birthday. Our driver, Costas, was friendly, welcoming, and very informative. We enjoyed the olive oil tour and had tasty food at a restaurant. Although it rained and we couldn’t capture photos in the mountains, it was an overall wonderful experience.Deborah_D
