Zakynthos Review:
Nationality: English
Age: 48
The trip: Took an aeroplane. Pleasant flight but turbulances.
Reasons for going to Zakynthos: By reputation. I wanted to go to Greece or Cyprus. I choose Greece and the island of Zakynthos.
Idea before arriving: That Zante would be a small pretty island and unspoilt one.
Expectations and opinions: It really met my expectations - More than expexted. It is a lovely island, very beautiful and still very Greek. Not too spoilt with tourism except from some places like Laganas.
Favorite thing about Zakynthos: Island tour by sea. The beautiful blu waters and the unspoilt villages on the mountains.
Negative opinion: It rained much (September) and not much to do then. Driving is dangerous there and more police is necessary.
Recommendations: To the futur tourists, no, except to not stay at the resorts and to go discover the island and its mountainous villages. To the Zakynthos authorities, don't spoil it with too many more hotels/restaurants/bars.
I won't go to Zakynthos again as I never go back to the same place twice. We would love to visit some other greek islands. I can see why people do come back. The Greeks are very friendly.
