The organisation of the trip was perfect. We could discover the whole island in one day and could see the most beautiful places of Zakynthos. George is a very good guide - he took care of everyone in the group all the time and knows everything about the island. His knowledge is impressive. He also was very helpful and considers everybodys needs and conditions. I would recommend it to everyone visiting Zakynthos.

Terrible experience

wailongryan_t, Apr 2024

THE RATING IS FAKE !!!! The tour is terribly arranged, according to the description, we should have three hours of cruising but we only have one and a half hour. Also we should have one hour swimming in the shipwreck beach and 20 mins snorkelling in blue cave. But ending up with no swimming and snorkelling time (not even a second). I believe this part is what everyone is looking forward to do and YOU WILL BE VERY DISAPPOINTED when you see the blue sea but not being able to swim. I am pretty sure that we are allowed to swim in other beach near the shipwreck beach as I see another groups from other tour are doing so. So it’s definitely the problem for the tour. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO JOIN ANY OTHER TOUR BUT NOT THIS TOUR!!!!!!!!

great tour. it was very...

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Tianyu, Thank you for sharing your experience! We are glad you had a great time with us. Wish you all the best! Kind regards, Dali Tours

Really great!

Carla_E, Oct 2023

A perfect day! Our guide was knowledgeable and always kind and helpful. Great pictures. Nice place for lunch and a little Greek dancing was a plus! Loved that the tour was both over land and by boat. Excellent!

Wonderful experience, worth every penny!

Brittany_L, Oct 2023

The Tour guide had everyone pose on the cliff overlooking shipwreck beach, he was very willing to help with photographs and he knew a lot about the history.

If you love blue waters, come swim here!!

Paul_C, Oct 2023

Enjoying the crystal clear Mediterranean waters with many shades of blue and green. The views on top of the cliffs were absolutely breathtaking!! Our van driver Eraldo went way out of his way to get me my purchased goods, delicious local honey that I left behind.

Epic

Shipwreck tour

Judith_T, Sep 2023

The boat trip itself around the shipwreck and caves. Food I the taverna very good and guide very good

Great tour!

Kellen_M, Sep 2023

This tour was great! You will NEVER see water that looks like this!! It’s like you’re boating through blue Gatorade. Dimitri (I think) our tour guide was great. Super informative and helpful. They worked with us on a shorter itinerary because of our limited cruise port. Very good tour overall just beware that you might not hit everything listed on the itinerary.

Not as good as described

Sarah_H, Sep 2023

It was a good trip however a couple of things let it down. I was travelling alone with my son and due to the layout of the minibus I ended up sat separately to my child which wasn’t ideal. It was supposed to be a small group of no more than 17 which it was until the boat trip when 3 or more buses of people were crammed into 1 boat like sardines. We were supposed to have a 3 hour cruise which ended up only 2 hours but given we were so squashed on there, I was happy for it to be over. Also the stop at the farm was not as described, you were shepherded into a seated area where you got to sample some products and then shepherded into a shop to buy the products and then straight back on the bus to go home! I wanted to actually see the farm and meet the animals as described. I think the shorter cheaper trip just to ship wreck beach would have been better.

Fair

ManSzeMays_L, Aug 2023

I was planning to visit the shipwreck beach and view point, but the weather wasn’t allow the tour to go, the police blocked the area, all the people in my group were very disappointed. It’s not related to the tour company, but the weather. They tried their very best to please us though.

An okay way to see different things on the island

Ana_G, Aug 2023

The experience was not overally bad, but neither overally amazing. It did not feel like a guided tour, but more like taxi transport. Our guide did not provide much information or history or anything. At one point she said she hates the tourists and only wanted the job because she loved the money. What a great feeling to give to your guests: that she hates you and only wants your money 🤦‍♀️ Pros: you can tick off the list you saw the shipwreck, the blue cave tour was the highlight of the entire tour - swimming in the cave and ocean was fun and refreshing, we had a great lunch at a nice restaurant on the water's edge at a harbour. Cons: not great communication at some points - our guide failed to give us a time of when to meet back at a meeting spot, the food tasting at the end was just another tourist trap to encourage you to buy things. Heads up: a lot of the day is spent driving.

Not so perfect

RUIYANG_J, Jul 2023

The scenery is good, but you could only have very little time in the scenery point of ship wreck. The latter ship tour is also a little bit boring and crowded. If you are only interested in ship wreck and sea tour. It is not recommended to take part in this daily tour because there are several additional shopping or induced consumption point which would waste a part of your time.

Highly recommended experience- we loved it!!

Ana_S, Jun 2023

Incredible experience! We were picked up and dropped off 10 hours later. So much or the island packed in, with time to explore and swim at some of the stops. The guide really did know what the best spots for photos were and the overall itinerary was as advertised. The taverna we stopped for lunch also had delicious food and the olive tree farm was such a fun last stop! We couldn’t recommend this more to anyone who is in Zante!

An overall awesome tour!

Laszlo_K, Jun 2023

I really liked the variety of the programs and George was a perfect tour guide for them. There is a lot to see in this tour and it felt like we spent just the right amount of time at every stop. Recommended to everybody!

Thrilling

MarthaC_A, Jun 2023

Dali team is the best. Professional, knowledgeable and take all precautions. They know all the island. They are concerned for your safety. Parents, leave the kiddos at home. Their are challenges on this tour. Very happy we took the tour rather than doing it ourselves.

No views, no service.

Emily_B, Sep 2022

The Dali tour group assigned was horrible. It was 80% can ride zig zagging the island, a view point line with no view, a boat tour after 800 steps, and no shipwreck beach. And a pick up an hour early to ride to nowhere. When I emailed them it was ‘don’t put this on us, you should be prepared’. When a medical situation happened they were rude, and unhelpful. I’ve booked the same tour with Viator before, in the same place with a different tour group assigned and we had the best day. So this is about the tour company that you should reconsider, not the tour locations.

Great Tour

Jamie_S, Aug 2022

Would recommend this tour for any couple, individual or group travelling in zante. Great itinerary and George was a legend- as well as being a great driver he was a fantastic dance teacher too 😂

Book this trip!

AliWebster, Aug 2022

We absolutely loved everything about our tour. Our guide, George, felt like an old friend. The tour van was comfy w/great a/c which was a big plus in early August. After visiting the viewpoint above Shipwreck beach, we took a boat to the actual beach which was busy, but still amazing! We then swam in the blue caves which were sunlit and as beautiful as the Blue Grotto in Capri. We also visited Xigia beach, which was very different with milky blue water. Lunch was at a great restaurant with the sweetest staff, and we loved the quick stop at Exo Chora to see the ancient olive tree and try some local products. We cannot thank George enough for the ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL day! We felt lucky to have this awesome experience in Zakynthos!

1 hour was good, 9 hours were awful.

Luka_T, Jul 2022

A classic tourist rip-off. The high average review score is misleading. No value for money at all. The pick-up was 45-60min late. The guide was distant and didn't speak good English. The minibus was tight and boiling hot throughout the trip. We spent most of the tour driving around in the minibus (6 out of 10 hours). The itinerary was improvised: all viewing points were skipped, the departure port was changed (porto vromi instead of agios nicolaos), and we visited different caves than the ones advertised. We needlessly spent time (2 x 20min) at some souvenir road stops, while we also spent only 2 x 20min at the actually good swimming spots. Navagio is a total mess, you spend 40min there, surrounded by people posing for photos and boats unloading swarms of tourists. You can't swim there from all the boats constantly arriving and departing. We also spent 2 x 60min at restaurants, which were completely mediocre. It overall feels that they take you on this tour in order to take you to their business associates (restaurants and souvenirs) so you can spend more money there, while they don't care at all to provide for a good beach/swimming experience. ADVICE: rent yourself a car/boat for the day, and visit the spots you want at your own pace. There are beautiful beaches besides navagio, where you can enjoy your time in a great way, instead of with a tourist ripoff tour for quick selfies and pointless by-stops. Or get a cheaper tour, because it can't get much worse than this.

This tour was great! I...

Tara_S, Jul 2022

This tour was great! I loved the swimming and the caves. I did wish we could have spent less time at Shipwreck beach (1hr) and more just swimming off the side of the boat (20 min) because it was way more fun where there weren't so many people. The water was incredible and it was all so very beautiful! My only complaint was all the stops after the boat. Everyone was hot and tired so everyone was less enthusiastic about seeing things during the later afternoon portion of the tour.
