Great trip by boat - Nice smaller boat. It was really nice that it was not too crowded, but we were also only around 16 persons, so it was not fully booked. Beautiful trip by boat and we saw a turtle. Great value for money in our opinion.

Exceptional Yotomu - marine park - Excellent organization. Fabio was exceptional, extremely helpful. It was a beautiful, impeccably organized excursion.
In addition to the excursion to the marine park, we also took advantage of the transfer service.
I highly recommend it to everyone, especially cruise passengers

Nice experience, friendly and on time - We only had a short day and this was a perfect experience. They ran like clockwork and were very friendly. Nice small boat, around 25, much better than some of the larger ones we saw around. Swimming was refreshing, views were great. Final stop was a bit busy beach on island, but there were some food and drinks boats there selling stuff. Would recommend if you need the short version experience.

Turtles ✅, beautiful nature ✅, beautiful blue water ✅ - My son and I enjoyed the boat ride. There were 'only' 12 people on the boat with us. So enough space. Captain took it easy with the boat, which improved the sailing pleasure.
Were able to see 2 turtles. One while sailing, the other was fairly close to the coast. Several boats were there, but the turtle passed under our boat several times. Very cool to see!
The whole trip is quite touristy, but it was not overly busy.
And looking back on the island of Zakynthos on the open sea is simply very beautiful

Zakynthos Paradise - As advertised, we saw around 4-5 turtles and 2 of them even cane up for air to greet us. Sailed along a gorgeous coastal area lined with whitewashed rock cliffs, caves and arches. Stopped for a refreshing swim in clear blue waters and then went to a nice beach to relax for 1 hr. This boat tour is well worth the 2.5 hrs and $27, highly recommended.

Great experience!! - The views were amazing. We spotted a turtle and was able to take photos and videos of it. It was a fantastic experience. You have to walk through a bit of the sea and climb up a ladder to get on the boat and they tell you to leave your shoes on the shore, but my advice is take your shoes with you because you get to stop off on to a beach which is quite stoney to walk from the boat to the shore. I personally would get some water shoes for sure!!! On the beach is some snack boats where you can purchase some food, drink and ice cream. We loved the whole experience and the driver of the boat was great. Really lovely trip!

Recommended - Very nice outing. We were lucky that the weather was great. Shortly after departure the first and only turtle was spotted. Then pass through beautiful mountains and caves to the first swimming stop. Then to the next commercial stop on a beautiful sandy beach. Even before you have set foot on the beach, other entrepreneurs are already trying to get you to eat and drink. As said, nice trip. Skipper may explain a little more about what we see but was otherwise very friendly. TIP FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO TAKE PHOTOS, SIT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BOAT.
