Program details

This award-winning trip rolls out all the best bits of Zante in one day. Travelling by coach through olive groves and hills, you’ll start at Katastari, soaking up the views across to Kefalonia and mainland Greece. Then hop on a boat to cruise around the famous Blue Caves. The star of these caves is the ‘Blue Grotto’, which is named after its dazzling blue waters. After that, it’s on to the area of Volimes for some souvenir shopping before making your way to the monastery at Anafonitria. This half-ruined 14th century monastery was once a refuge for Zante’s patron saint, Dionysios. After lunch in Anafonitria village, we’ll drive to Macherado to see its church - famous for its Venetian belfry. Lastly, you’ll call at an olive oil factory before heading for a hillside which gives fantastic views over Zante Town. So north, south, east and west no stone is left unturned Please note - if the boat trip to the Caves is cancelled because of high winds, youll visit the Versagio Folklore Museum instead.
