Blue Caves and Ship Wreck by boat

(Excursions on Zante)

9/10

I visited Tsilivi,Zante with my wife in end of June and had a very pleasurable trip.

I was a first time visitor to Zante, and didn't know much about the island and the day excursions. I'm very glad to have met Michael from Mamfredas tours who helped us greatly in lot of ways.

Michael and his fiance Alexandra are very sweet and treat their customers like personal friends. They offered us the best tours (Island Cruise, Island Coach tour, Turtle spotting cruise, etc) at very competitive prices and were also very flexible in terms of change of dates due to weather problems.

Their tours always left on time, unlike some others I heard didn't care for customers and had lots of waiting time...

The home made rose wine Michael offered us is also worth mentioning, I would recommend all first time visitors to Tsilivi to get their day tours from Mamfredas tours as being a family run business everything offered has a personal touch and warmth.

They are easy to locate as opposite to the Pieros Restaurant and just 2 mins walk from the famous Paradise Bar.

God Bless you Michael and Alexandra for being so kind to us during our stay in tsilivi. We wish to visit soon and have the pleasure of meeting you again...

My girlfriend and I stayed in Tsilivi for the first time and decided to do the Island Cruise. We booked with Mamfredas Tours. Michael from Mamfredas is a great guy!! He gave us discount on our trips as we booked two tours with him, the other being Zante By Night. He was very friendly and helpful and even invited us for some of his homemade wine after the trip.

The trip itself was great. We got picked up 8:15am by coach, which took us to the harbour. We visited all the main parts of the island, e.g. the shipwreck, keri caves, blue caves & turtle island. It was a fantastic day out and didn't return back to our drop-off point till nearly 6pm, so it was a full day, well worth the money!

The 2nd trip was the Zante By Night trip. As we were waiting at the pick up point, Michael came along to inform us that the coach had broken down, but to prevent the tour being cancelled, he took us in his own personal car, which was really good of him.

Michael, we will look forward to seeing you next year!

I would definitely recommend booking your trips through Mamfredas. You will not be disappointed!

We enjoyed a fantastic day to the Shipwreck & Blue caves with Nefis travel in Tsilivi. Jackie is such a knowledgable and passionate guide! I learnt many interesting facts about Zakynthos on the trip.
The best thing about Jackies tours is they are very personal, you don't travel in a group of more than appx 14-16 people, you travel to the destination before all the other tours arrive, we practically had the shipwreck beach to ourselves for an hour!! Then all the other big boats started arriving with hundreds of people on!
We got to actually go inside the blue caves and have a swim, you really do turn blue! Highly recommend booking with Nefis, first class service.
We are returning to Tsilivi next year for our 3rd year, we are looking forward to th V.I.P Back to the Roots tour next year!

Hi Claire

I went to the ship wreck last year and it was 35 euros each going thru our rep... mayb cheaper in the high street tho.... And to be honest we didn't really enjoy it that much. Don't get me wrong it was absolutely beautiful, but we only got to stay at the actual ship wreck for about 30-45 mins which I didn't think was long enough to really enjoy it, and it was packed!!! But we went at the beginning of August so it may not be as busy when you go...

Not sure about the other trips tho sorry x x

the best day trip we had was to visit the blue caves ship wreck and turtle island u see allot of caves and the water is so clear it looks like a swimmingpool check out sum of my pics, also we had top deck of the boat with sun loungers there was also a kids pool on board this trip costs 22 euros for the whole day u leave at 8.30 from zante town and catch a coach and the coach takes u to the dock where u get your boat theres a cafe on board and music it drops u back to the dock at about 5 so a very long but well worth day out.ive put a picture on here so people can see just how blue the sea realy is,

warning though when u do get of the boat to visit the ship wreck its not sand its little stones and it realy does hurt your feet so wear sandles ...
