just back from zante had the best time again this is our second time in zante we love the island be back next year to.big shout out to ian jeep driver on the jeep safari thanks mate we had a excelent day will see you next year we stopped at the zante maris hotel the best hotel in tsivile.may 17th to 24th.......class......
Went on jeep safarii during our holiday in September.
Just returned from Zante last month (Sep 08) had an absolutely fantastic time on the Jeep Safari and would definately do it again. Our driver was Ian and we booked it through Tsilivi Travel. I would recommend this trip to anyone, it was worth every penny and thought it was quite reasonable. Went off road quite a few times which is really exciting especially if you are in the back of the Jeep!!
Went on jeep safari on 14th August it was well worth the money, our driver was Ian from Scotland and he took us to places you wouldn't normally go to. We went on road and off road which was an experience to say the least (one foot from the cliff top I can't bear to think about it) If you do just one trip on your holiday I would recomend this one, it's not only informative, scary, great fun but also one hell of a day out and well worth the money. We booked through Julian and Tassos in Tsilivi but you can also book this same trip in Argassi through Peter. More comfortable ride in the front but really scary in the back, if there are two parties sharing one jeep arrange to swap half way through the journey this will ensure you get both experiences. Thanks for one hell of a day out.
We went on the jeep safari on 12/07.08 and it really was one of the best day trips we have ever done anywhere! We were driven by Ian (who was a great driver both on and off road) and the other jeep was driven by Julian who had a jeep load of girls screaming at every insect which managed to get into the jeep!
Me (20) & my boyfriend John (24) did the jeep safari on our last day 23rd July 2008. We booked through Thomas Cook, which is quite expensive (52 euros each) but it was worth it. Our driver was Alan and he was so funny, really made the day enjoyable. We learnt so much about the island, we stopped at several different spots including the shipwreck platform. The views are just amazing. The actual jeep ride is hilairious, we were right at the back so we got the brunt of it on the back roads but was just so funny. You stop for drinks and lunch. They ask you to fill out a questionnaire at the end just so they know what you thought. I would highly recommend this day trip to anyone and everyone unless you get travel sick .
had a great time julian was great and new a lot about zante saw a lot of culture was a bit scary at times though a great trip i would defo do it again well worth the money julian was excellent could answer all the questions about zante we asked him booked with pelagros tours in argassi great service arrived just on time keri is nice the first stop the cafe orange juice is great i would defo do it again

Did Jeep Safairi for the second time on 13th June 08 with Iain, Was Excellent again - went to a few different places than last time. After i got over my initial jeep sickness before we even got to keri - it was plain jeeping from there - off roading was great!!
Most definalty advisable to everybody - must do excursion to see the islands best bits!!!!!
Great
went on trip with ian 18/0608 had a very good time .the team were very inforative and good fun.
Hi Michelle
Me and my girlfriend saved the Jeep safari right till the very end of the holiday and were so glad we did! The day is great fun from start to finish and i was surprised by the level of knowledge and information about the island the drivers had. Such a fantastic way to see the island and a lot more fun filled than any boat excursion available for you to go on. Would recommend it to anyone, its been the best trip we have ever been on, its that good! Ten out of ten! If you go through Tez (the official Zante tourist company) then you can save yourself some money as Thompson would have charged us 16 euros per person more, and it probably wouldn't have been as good, at least its hard to see the trip getting any better.
Didn't do the jeep safari this time around, but what a star is Julian !!!! If your looking for a funny witty guide to the island and a guy who knows where all the best spots are you should really book this trip.
thanx for the thrill of a life time.
Just arrived home went out with Julian on weds 4th June best day of the holiday would recomend to anyone. Don't bother with the rep's trips this is a lot cheaper also you spend alot of the time "OFF ROAD "which alot of the tour operators don't do, you are lucky if you spend 1 hour off main roads.
Hi julian. Went on jeep safari back on may 17th i think. It was great enjoyed it so much and if we come back to Zante next year will go on it again. Got some great pictures and the views were amazing. Would recommend it to anyone.
hi all, will be back to zante soon 17th july 08 staying at exotica hotel.
Hi Julian, Andrea and Mick from Newcastle here. Back in the UK now, it is raining, depressing or what!
Just wanted to say thanks for a great day out in the jeep. Zante is a beautiful island and your island guide information and knowledge was superb and we thoroughly enjoyed all the sights you showed us. We don't often say 10/10 for trips, but we did for this one. Your whit and humour made the day too! As for your driving, it was what I call "exhilarating" ha ha ha!! Thanks for the bottle of wine too. Keep up the good work. I would recommend any visitors to do the jeep safari as it excellent. xHi Julian, Thanks for the Landrover experience, now i know how i need to be driving mine back here in the uk. We were the family from Plessas Palace who had the polish couple with us " SEVERE TRAVEL SICKNESS + JULIANS DRIVING = A VERY ILL POLISH COUPLE" We had a fantastic day all the same, we even hired a Suzuki Hairdryer for the rest of our holiday and we returned to the beach you took us to, a great place for snorkelling. Hey we also went to Laganas, found the volley ball net, swam out (walked really it was that shallow) and there were no turtles to be seen, you must have scared them all off.Tell you what that Suzuki heap couldnt even go round a corner without trying to slide off the road, didnt dare take it off road though!!! Any way keep up the good work, and less of that sunday driving! PS ITS A LANDY NOT A JEEP! and my daughter will get you back some day for wetting her.
I would like to say wot amazing guys...............myself and family , which includes my young son and mother in law. We arrived in zakynthios may 5 2008 and booked the jeep safari for the think it was the tenth, and we were picked up from the zante atlantis.I will never 4 get such a day as long as i live..........................It was the most exhilerating, blood pumping,brain shakin,exciting fantastic 7 plus hrs ive ever spent in my life....the guys r fantasic and funny and very informative in a funny not borin way. I just watched thevideo with my family who did not come with us and and all they did was gasp and laugh .Thank u both again 4 such a day and curing me from being afraid of heights , who needs therapy now............ I will never look at a ten foot drop with such horror again hee hee.THANKS again the mad welsh family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ello to all visitors of zante just a massive thank you to all that have had to put up with myself and ian for the past few years .i would like to thank every one who has taken the trip and would like to invite others to give it a go . we are the only uk managed and fully uk insured jeep safari on the island of zante which intern offers you a guarantee of full public liabilty insurance and fully maintained vehicles to a british standard. if you have any questions or would like to book in advance you can contact me at jomyall2002@bluebottle.com .

I went on this safari last october 7th 2007 and it was amazing. I recommend you go with Julian and no one else as with his mental rally driving knowledge you'll have the time of yr life!! You may throw up as i was close and you'll definately hit your head on the roof more then once, its so exhilerating!! Cheers julian, have a gooden.

Hi Guys Jock here...
Have been to Zante many times, and tried most of teh trips, but having been on the Jeep Safari with Julian, absolutely no doubt at all that this is a "don't miss" trip above anything else we have done there. A real fun day out, you get to see the most fantastic views ofthe island, that make the "Smugglers Cove shot one of the less interesting!
Hi Julian, Really had a fantastic day on Safari with you. The girls and I just wanted to say thanx, and what was it we weren't supposed to tell ur Dad? ............... oh yeah, I remember, Ur brill!!! LOL Thanx again, and maybe see you next season.

Hi Julian,
Just a quick note to thank you for a brilliant day out on Safari. We enjoyed everything from the water fights, desperately needing the toilet, to the bumpy drive . We came away with so many fantastic memories and cannot wait to come back next year.Hi Ike, Louis and Dave, we had a fantastic day out on the Jeep Safari, best trip we went on it really made our holiday. Ike kept us entertained throughtout the day, loved the accent! The swim and dive into the cave at sulphur beach was amazing. Hope to do it again next time we visit. Love Linda and Rachel.
Hi Ian and everyone from Insight Safari in Tsivili who made our trip to Zante extra special It was a really wonderful day (12th sept), the best part has got to be the off road bit. We saw parts of the island that we never would have normally and it was so much fun being throwen from side to side and climbing very step hills
Ian was a fountain of really good local history and knowledge and helped make what we were seeing come to life as well as understanding the Zante people's way of life. He added somethiing really special to our trip by having a real pasion for what he was doing.Got back from Zakynthos middle of July. On our last day we went on the the jeep safari with Ike. Have to say the best was truly saved til last. Was a fantastic way to see the island and all of its beauty. Ike was also very informative and kept us laughing all day andd it didn't feel like the usual tourist trip, everything was very relaxed and just went where the day took us really, and was great to have a guide who knew so much about the local wildlife and plantlife. The views we saw were breathtaking,and all at a fantastic price!
We had a fantastic day out today on the jeep safari with Ian (our driver) and Julian (the driver of the other jeep).
Hi Julian, absolutely fabulous day out with you and Ian on the jeeps. Just wanted to say thank you both. You gave us the best day out of our holiday. I still don't know how you managed a hand brake turn in a Land Rover, but, it was well worth it. See you in a couple of years. Frank & Karen
Hi Julian (dont call me Julie!),
Hi Louis and the rest of the team,
Thanks for a very memorable day on safari! We are back home now and our day with you in the jeep is one of many highlights of great holiday.I would like on the behalf of myself and the Shuttleworths to say what a fantastic day we had with you guys. Probably the best day of the holiday. We really appreciated the fact that you took us to the bits you peronally thought were the best and were very enthusiastic about it. We loved the views of Smuggler's Cove and from where we had lunch. I liked the opportunity to see the rugged part of the islands, and the chance to see the hoopoe! Will definately reccommend you.
...... Hi guys, Just got back home today and wanted to send a short note to let you know how much we all enjoyed our day with you. Claire, Daryl, Aaron, Paul and I had such a great day with our wonderful driver Ike but we have to say that you three were just so much fun to be around and were truley great hosts. We all agreed that our time with you guys was the best time we had while on the island and above all else we would recommend anyone to take up the chance to see the island safari style with you. We could not praise you enough. Top marks for such an unforgetable experience. We all feel that we made friends with some lovely people and as a father of three boys that are usually hard to satisfy I thank you all for giving the lads an experience they were so impressed with.Our heart felt best wishes to you guys. We hope you are there for many years to come.
What a fab day on the jeep safari. Ike had loads of information about this beautiful island.
Got home yesterday from Zante and promised Julian we would comment on the website.
Had a fantastic day with Ike last week. We always try to do a safari when on holiday and this was one of the best.
Hi Ike and Louis, had a fanastic time on your jeep safari(glad we got the mad ones) and will definitely be back next year for a repeat performance. What a view from gods window! We also loved the sulphur beach bit chilly but worth the wait to touch that big dick, LOL! Shame it wasn't wearing a profolactico!Hope you're still running it next year. Donna says hi to Louis and kiss kiss! Hope you don't mind louis gave her your number, just getting even for the close up you did on me in the DVD, cheers mate!! Ike hope Maria's coping without you tell her hi from us all. See you next year and thankyou.

I have been on Zante Insight myself and had a fantastic time. Julian Ian and Andreas are fantastic people to enjoy the day with. They are so helpful and polite and generally make sure you have the time of your life. All three are funny and entertaining.
Thanks to all three drivers, To Ian for his jokes, to Andreas for being so kind and to Julian for his sense of humour which was hilarious. Well done boysThe jeep safari was brillaint, it is an excelent was to see the whole island, our driver Ian was more than brillaint he was friendly, kind and very informative, in my opinion he made the trip. we got to see many of the famous sight, like the top of the shipwreck, and we saw Turtle Island from Zante island. we stopped for something to drink in the morning and something to eat later on. we got to have a swin at about midday. The driver of the other Jeep ( Julian ) which we went round with was inslauting and very sarcastic and seemed to want to affened everyone which i thought was very unaceptable, but apart from that i thought the whole day was brillaint.
Hi Ike and Loui. Date of trip: Thursday 2nd of August.
hey Louie and Ike!
Thanks for a wonderful and exciting day! What a great way to see the scenery and explore the island of Zante! We have watched the DVD, it is absolutely halarious!! It is a good way to remember all the great moments! Thanks for coming back to Argassi to pick us up as we truly enjoyed the day!
from Andrew, Linda and Andrea ( The ones from Lockerbie!)
. We have just come back from our first trip to Zante and really enjoyed the jeep safari. It's a great way to see the island and our driver Ken gave us lots of information about the island. This trip gives you a feel for the real Zante and I would highly recommend it. This trip was offered by our tour company but we booked it ourselves in Laganas Town. I would suggest this is a good way to do this as this was much cheaper.
Have just returned from the holiday of a lifetime in Zante and the highlight was the jeep safari. I have been on several others but this was just the best. Our three drivers in land rovers were absolutely fantastic and we saw parts of the island that can only be reached that way. The off road driving of these three can only be described as fantastic but their consideration for our children was also wonderful. At times I wondered how they saw the road ahead but we had a great time only spoiled by driving through the fire ravaged mountains- and our driver being from the island was quite moving as he talked about his beloved island . I have reccommended this trip to numerous others and on nbehalf of all our group, 7 in all, thank you for such a wonderful day out and more strength to you all. We will be back with you soon and will be looking forward to another day of thrills.
Third time back to Tsilivi, second trip on jeep safari, still the best trip on the island, fantastic day with Julian and Ian. If you get the chance you must take it, fantastic fun mixed with really interesting facts about the island. Great to see you again Julian, just as mad as ever even with out the studs in your arm. Ian was a real bonus, great driver, off road was out of this world. hopefully see you again in the not too distant future.
This was the only trip that we did during our holiday and we are glad that we chose this one. Its a long day but was worth it. The guys who drive the jeeps are a great laugh and give you all the information that you want to know and are willing to answer any questions that you want to ask.
Its a better way of seeing the whole island as your not stuck on a stuffy coach all day and the off road part is a laugh.
We booked our trip through a company in town and was 60 euro's for two.
I would recommend this trip to others as its a great way to get out of the sun for a day, see the island in one go and just generally have a good time.
Thanks to the guys who also joined us.
See ya soon
Hey Ike,
Its Ethan. Thank you (and your dearest Priscilla) for an absolutley fantastic trip during our stay in Tsivili. The day we spent with you was truly amazing, and the sights you went out of your way to show us were stunning...anymore people managed to get the stone into the venetian wells (after me )???This was an amazing trip well worth the money, which wasn't to much. We went with Zante insight with Julian and Ian and they made the trip. The places we went were amazing and you would not be able to get to most of the places by coach. The off road driving that they did was mental and it was really exciting. I would definalty go with Julian. One the best trips ever!!!
Hey Louie and Ike!
Thanks for replying Dave!
My email is tdarnbrook@hotmail.com.
I hope you both enjoyed your holiday. Am hoping to go back in September, will maybe try Kalamaki this time.
Say hi to Julie and thanks for the photo!
Tracy
Louis drove me and my 3 kids (Holly, Calum and Medb) round on thurs 12th july. My only regret was that I had to fly back on sat morning without having gone on the sunset trip. Flew into Dublin at 5.15, by 6 I was wrestling with a frozen handbrake thinking I could be driven round by the handsome, witty Louis. Stuck in traffic for 3 hours close to tears imagining eating mango sorbet in Zante! Why didn't I just do a runner on the tarmac and stay for another while! Thinking of coming back on my own in september, maybe towards the end, will you still be doing tours then or is it the end of the season? We all agreed that was the best trip of any of the holidays we've been on. Thanks for the best day, you're a STAR!! Love Katy, Holly, Calum and Medb Oh crap, just spent ages trying to add on piccys, really great close up of you Lou you'd love, specially the tongue!!! will try again later
Hi Ike and Louie
just home from zante we went on jeep with ike fab trip he went over and above the call of duty with the info he gave us Mick and Bernie will recommend this trip to everyone make sure you get IKE or LOUIE
went on jeep safari wif julian, hes great driver, had alot of laughs and learnt alot about the island aswell. by far the best day of the holiday, money well spent, julian best driver ive ever had on jeep safari, allthought he can-not dive for a toffee.
Hi, my wife and I did the jeep safari with Zante Insight Jeep Safari on Friday 29th July this year. It was one of the best days out we have ever had on holiday. Our driver was Ian, and the other jeep driver was Julian, and betwen them they made sure everyone enjoyed a fantastic day. They both had an abundance of knowledge about the island and that added to their great sense of humour really made the day for us. We have done quite a few trips out on various holidays, including a Monster Truck Safari in the Dominican Republic which we thought could not be surpassed. Well Julian and Ian take a bow, because your safari tops the lot. Will definately do again when we return to Argassi in the future. If you are reading this Julian and Ian, we were the two (pensioners,,,,,) from Liverpool who fully enjoyed the banter all day long as well as the unbelievable driving. See you soon.
