October - (Best Time to Visit)

Big T           

We went to Tsilvi during the last week of October 2004. The weather was hot and sunny most of the time with a couple of thunderstorms. Swimming in the sea was excellent and the beach deserted. A very peaceful and relaxing holiday. So much so we are going again this October.  If you want to check out the weather look at www.wunderground.com

We have just come back from an excellent holiday in Tsilivi and wanted to say a big thank you to all at Freddies Beach Bar.  Having visited several times over the last two years it has been a real pleasure to receive such consistent,  friendly and excellent service.  Well done to you all - we really do hope that you all have a well earned rest. 

Good health  and thanks again for helping  make our stay in Zakynthos and our introduction  to Greece so relaxing and enjoyable.

Levante Speedboat Trip - (Zante Excursions)

Trevor P           

Our family went out with Spiros this October half term on a trip to Navagio and the  Blue caves etc.  Water was a bit rough on the way up the coast, particularly, around Skinari.  Always felt safe however and I have to agree that Spiros is good with children. Both of ours got to drive and "Alexandros" got a second go to keep his mind off being sick at one point.  Enjoyed the stop off at Agios Nikolaos. Make sure you take your swimming/ snorky kit! Some thoughts for others thinking about going in the future, particularly, in October.

  • Don't sit at the back of the boat - you will get very wet
  • Take something warm to wear at the end of the season (and on your feet)
  • Take a relaxed attitude to timetables - others probably will - remember you're on holiday!
Spiros Kaponis is quite a charecter who clearly wants you to have a good time. Despite price I would say this is a real value for money trip - in the height of summer this must be absolutely top whack! If you do go end your outing with a drink or meal at Freddies Bar - u won't be disappointed.
