Itinerary
Begin your unique experience with a convenient pick-up from the door of your accommodation. Your local guide-driver of the day will begin by giving you a free map of Zakynthos before briefing you on your unique tour that lies ahead. On our way, you will enjoy the views of the olive groves, vineyards, the diversity of the landscape, the rugged but verdant mountains, the traditional village houses, the old churches, and the stunning panoramic views of the Ionian sea waters, the south coast as well as the southwest coast, until we arrive in our next stop.
Keri combines mountains and sea. The main settlement is located in a mountainous area and the seaside is one of the island's most popular resorts. In ancient times there was a port at Keri, Herodotus described the tar springs near Keri Lake, which seemed at the time to be more like a State.
Damiano's Caves Amongst the pine trees and olive groves lies the picturesque village of Agalas with its colored buildings and the large bell tower of the village's church. The 150 m. path to Damiano's cave is loose and rocky, it is two-storied and filled with awe-inspiring stalactites and stalagmites, the view from the cave is magnificent, the hills are thick with vegetation and the sea extends into the background. On the opposite side of Damianos Cave, we can see twelve wells of Agalas, known as the Adronios wells. Our knowledgeable guide will inform you with insightful details about the Legend of the Dragon.
Near Damiano's cave, we stop at one of the stone-built rest areas to enjoy the romantic, glorious sunset. Simply, unbelievable beautiful location, breathtaking views, great atmosphere and very romantic. We chose for you one of the most perfect locations with spectacular views to see the sunset that will make this experience even more memorable. When the sun begins to gradually touch the sea, it is the perfect moment to observe nature’s beautiful blending of colors. For us, what a better way to end your day !! For you, what a promise of a new tomorrow!!

A wonderful trip and our driver dropped us back at our accommodation with no extra fee
Dear Amanda, Thank you very much for your lovely review! We are so happy to hear that you had a wonderful trip with us. It was a pleasure to have you, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable visit to Zakynthos. Best regards, Dali Tours
It’s wonderful. Our guide had a secret view point and he’s also a good and warm hearted photographer. He took many pictures for us.
The tour was showing off a couple of nice spots, but the guide was not talking much and pretty much just carted us from photo up to photo up. Fine if you just want some shots for Instagram, but boring if you hoped to hear a little about the area
Stunning views, beautiful sunset, skillful and friendly driver, we really enjoyed this experience. Some points to improve: the van was barely airconditioned.. There was no complimentary glass of wine at the sunset view as it says in the tour description. The guide could have definitely done a better GUIDING job and could have told us at least the legend of the dragon himself and not just point to the sign where it's written. He was a friendly young man but it was more like he was there just to accompany us rather than really guide us through it and tell us some interesting facts. He didn't tell us at the beginning what the stops would be, so every stop was a surprise. He was not really engaged with us, he always just said the bare minimum. Yes at the beginning he said "ask me if you have questions" but I believe a good guide should act differently. We still enjoyed this tour but I did want to point this out. Tip: good walking shoes, the walk up to the most beautiful view is almost 1 km up a rocky hill - bur it is worth it.
The organization by Dalí Tours was professional and we felt in good hands. Our guide Dimitris was a safe driver with a lot of knowledge about the places we visited. Friendly and always in the mood for a joke, he was also happy to capture the moment for the participants on camera. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time for Cameo Island, but we had enough time to enjoy the impressions at the Mizithres rocks and the Damianos cave. The crowning glory was of course the beautiful sunset, which we could admire perfectly from the small tavern in Agalas. For the romantics, there were 90s pop songs and a man-sized, illuminated heart as a photo frame. ;-)
Mr. Khalifa and Dimitris from Dali Tours gave us an incredible experience, we were won over and we will come back to Zakynthos for the pleasure of these excursions which will amaze us!
The driver drove much too fast and rushed from photo stop to photo stop. The gathering of the participants was unsuccessful and chaotic. The visit to the stalactite cave was cancelled due to time constraints, but the group was not informed of this. The place to watch the sunset was wonderful and there were two other highlights too.
This excursion unlike the others did not really please me because I expected something else. The places we visited were not very interesting to visit. Moreover I thought that the guide would show us really the places... we visited the cave alone for example. One of the visit points was also replaced without warning by the Rock of Keri, which unfortunately we had already seen. We also thought that glass at sunset would be included in the price of the tour but it is at our expense. However Takis the guide was incredibly friendly!
The walk to the viewing point was not for anyone that is unfit. When you get to the top there are no safety rails you basically walk up to edge of cliff and take pictures don't get me wrong it's stunning but very unsafe. As for the end to see the sunset stunning place to eat and sit
