We are taking our 14 year old son June 01 03 for 2 weeks anyone else around his age going?
We fly from Manchester on the sunday
Arrived back Sunday 15/06/03. Holiday rep Jll was excellent sorting out all our minor problems except the noise in an evening. Be warned the bar does not close till 07.30am!!!. hence small children running round till early hours and people who think it amusing to shout and sing from balconies.
My teenagers had excellent time and rolled home 04.30am from the nightclub!!a perfectly safe enviroment for them to be in.
The apartments were 100% clean and reception staff were pleased to help where needed.
Would not go again, beware of charges for changing Euro cheques. would advise take Euros or sterling and pay 7.50 euros per week for the safe much cheaper than the 2% or even as much as 3% charges by the hotel and supermarkets.
I did this trip with Dionis tours booked in Tsilivi for 29 euros. And can safely say it was the highlight of my stay on Zante.
The guide we had round Olypia was Mario and his commentry made the ruins come alive! It costs an additonal 7 euros to enter the site and this is collected on the coach to save you having to queue.
With time to spend in the town be brave and dont listen to the guide when he says Olympia is expensive to eat, I had a toasted sandwich and fresh lemon juice for 4 euros!! With ample time left for me to shop!
