Best thing to do on Zakynthos island - I really wasn’t payed for this but honestly I think this tour is one of the best things you can do during your stay on Zakynthos. George is just the perfect guide to show you around this beautiful island on his private tour. We did the turtle island/ cave tour which will bring you nothing but unforgettable memories! I don’t want to spoil to much, just book it, it’s worth every penny.

Full-day private boat tour with George—Navagio shipwreck, Blue Caves, Keri cliffs swims, and a taverna lunch. - If I could give George more than five stars, I would give him a hundred. Booking him for our private Zakynthos tour was, without exaggeration, one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire life. I’ve been on many private tours over the years, all over the world, and this one stands completely on its own. By far, this was the most beautiful experience of all of them, and George is the single reason why. From the very first moment he picked us up, George made every single person in our group feel seen, valued, and cared for. He was attentive to all of us in a way I’ve never experienced from a guide before—never rushing anyone, never overlooking anyone, always making sure each of us was comfortable, okay, and genuinely happy. He checked in with us constantly throughout the day, and you could tell it came from a real place. He wasn’t just doing a job. He was making sure we had the day of our lives. Safety was always his first priority. He navigated the waters with so much skill and care, always reading the conditions and adjusting the speed to exactly what we wanted—faster when we were feeling adventurous, slower and gentler when we wanted to soak it all in. We always felt completely safe in his hands, which let us fully relax and enjoy every second. He came unbelievably prepared. The boat itself was spacious and comfortable, and George thought of absolutely everything. He brought snacks, plenty of water, and food, and made sure we were never wanting for anything. He had all the equipment we needed for the ocean ready to go, and he even brought a GoPro that we got to use throughout the day. On top of that, he captured the most incredible drone footage of us up on the cliff—memories we now get to keep forever, all because he went out of his way to do it. What truly makes George one of a kind, though, is his heart. He treats you as if he has known you forever, as if you are part of his own family. There’s a warmth and a genuineness to him that you simply cannot fake. He’s also extraordinarily knowledgeable about the island and its history, and what’s so special is how much he loves sharing that knowledge. He lights up when he tells you about a place, and that enthusiasm is contagious. He was endlessly communicative, endlessly patient, and endlessly accommodating—nothing was ever too much to ask. He thought of the little things that make a memory last. He told us exactly when and where to take pictures, and he took photos of us entirely on his own, without us even asking, just so we’d have these moments captured forever. We also did an olive tasting experience with him that was absolutely wonderful—yet another highlight in a day full of them. George gave us his absolute all, from start to finish. He did so much for us, far beyond anything we expected, and he did it all with a smile and a genuine joy in making our day perfect. By the end of it, my entire family had completely fallen in love with him. They kept turning to me and asking, over and over, where on earth I had found him. In my honest opinion, George is the best tour guide you can possibly find — not just in Zakynthos, but in all of Greece. If you are even thinking about booking this tour, do not hesitate for a single second. He is attentive, kind, knowledgeable, fun, professional, and genuinely one of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. He is truly top of the line, the very best there is. We are so grateful to him, and we will never forget this day for as long as we live. Thank you, George—from the bottom of our hearts.

Must Do Experience! - I cannot recommend this tour enough! George was so communicative and happy to customize the tour to exactly what we wanted. He gave us plenty of information about the area and made sure to take us to all the stunning spots on the south of the island! We all love to be in the water and so made sure to find all of the best swimming spots, and we even managed to swim near a Loggerhead Turtle which was absolutely insane! This is the perfect way to explore the island and see places you would never get to see otherwise! Book book book!

A special day. - What a day! We cannot recommend this any more. From start to finish, it was a breathtaking day. George was the best guide, asking us how we wanted to structure our day, so we spent most of the day out on the boat exploring the island. George is an extremely kind and caring host, but with an amazing sense of humour to really make the day special. The stops and swims we had were stunning, and I could not recommend this trip more. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I would highly recommend booking with George. And just to top it off, we swam with turtles. All in all, excellent value for money and an amazing day.

Above and Beyond - We genuinely cannot recommend George enough. What started as a boat trip turned into one of the most magical and unforgettable experiences of our lives. From the very beginning, George made everything feel so personal, like we weren’t just customers on a tour, but friends he genuinely wanted to share his island with. The boat experience itself felt unreal. George took us to the most breathtaking hidden spots and secluded parts of the island that honestly looked too beautiful to be real. Every stop felt like something out of a movie. To make it even more special, he provided us with a DJI camera to use while swimming through crystal-clear caves and hidden swimming spots, capturing moments we’ll genuinely treasure forever. One of the most incredible parts of the day was turtle spotting. Even though it was a very quiet time of year for seeing turtles, George somehow became an actual turtle whisperer. While all the other boats could only sit and watch from a distance, George hunted them down with pure determination and excitement, making sure we were ready at the top of the boat with the DJI in hand so we could jump straight in and swim with make it them. It honestly felt surreal watching the other boats look on in awe while we were living this once-in-a-lifetime experience. And somehow, the experience still didn’t end there. After the boat trip, George took us around the island by land in his own car, showing us even more unbelievable viewpoints we never would have discovered ourselves. Every stop somehow topped the last. He filled the entire journey with fascinating stories and local knowledge that made us appreciate the island even more. George also went above and beyond capturing memories for us. He took countless amazing photos and videos throughout the day and even pulled out a drone to get the most insane cinematic shots. Since coming home, we’ve shown everyone the footage he captured, and it has genuinely influenced so many people to want to visit purely because of the stories and memories we now have thanks to him. As if that wasn’t enough, he then took us to an olive oil factory where we tasted the most incredible olive oil we’ve ever had, we genuinely couldn’t leave without stocking up. One of the most personal touches of the entire experience was when George saw how much we loved it and immediately decided to make a small detour by his own family home, where his own mother passed his home grown and made olive oil through the car window; the most beautiful personal touch. It was such a beautiful and authentic moment that perfectly sums up the kind of person George is. To top it all off, George picked us up directly from our accommodation and dropped us back afterwards something we never even expected. This was so much more than a boat tour. It was an adventure, a personal guided experience, and a day full of memories we’ll never forget. George’s passion, kindness, energy, and attention to detail made this one of the best experiences we’ve ever had while travelling. If you are considering booking with him, I can promise, you will leave with memories for life.

Keri caves - We visited Keri caves and Mizithres Viewpoint. We also went turtle spotting and it was very relaxing and etical from the turtles pov. The whole day was amazing and so much fun. George gave us the freedom to decide what we wanted to do next, which made the experience feel very personal and relaxed. He also took many incredible drone photos for us. The day was truly unforgettable, and I highly recommend him as a guide for everyone, families, couples, young and old. If you want an unforgettable experience, he is the perfect choice!

I can't imagine a better day.. - You will be so lucky if you get to take a tour with George while you are in Zakynthos. I personally would book my trip around this day. My fiancé and I took this tour in June (4 months ago), and we still talk about it weekly. George texted us after we booked through the Marriott tours website, and I could immediately tell her was so funny and friendly. Not only was he such an amazing host and lovely person to spend the day with, but he also took us to the MOST amazing places. We took a private boat to remote spots, which we would have never known about, nor would we have had access to without him, and restaurants we would have never found. He has lived in Zante his whole life and knows everything about the island. Truly, I cannot say one thing I would have changed to have a better experience. Toward the end of our time together, I was already trying to hire him for a second day, but unfortunately, he was booked for all of the other days we were there. I will definitely be going back to visit, and the first thing I will do is book a day with him! George, we can not thank you enough for making our trip so special and beautiful!

The Best Tour in Zakynthos, Dream Proposal - If you are visiting Zakynthos, you MUST book this tour. George is the absolute best guide on the island (and all of Greece if you ask me). I planned my surprise proposal to my now fiancé with George’s help and it was a dream come true!!! He took us to shipwreck viewpoint, played our song, and took amazing photos! He is also very very accommodating. My fiancé can get motion sickness and knowing this, George drove very carefully, was prepared with some medicines for it, and brought us to calmer waters on the boat. And even though it was a windy day and weather wasn’t the best for boat tours, he still found the calm parts of the island for us to be able to go swimming and visit beautiful beaches and scenery. After the tour, he even continued to keep up with us during our stay on the island, recommending places to visit, events going on, etc. He truly made our trip the best of our lives and we will never forget it.

Robust tour with a fantastic guide! - George is the best tour guide, and my wife and I had a fantastic time with him on our honeymoon! He is so knowledgeable about the island and takes great care in ensuring the guests are happy and comfortable from start to finish. He is willing to adjust the tour to however is best for you, and this was a great way to see the island from the water and land! We are so happy that we were able to spend a day with George and could not recommend him more!
