Traventure Zakynthos: Extremely efficient service and extremely friendly staff. We booked the night before for four people (2 adults and 2 children). We checked in the morning. The girl was clear and kind, and the boat operator was very kind to us and the children, whom he involved in the trip (much appreciated). The return trip can be booked by calling 30 minutes in advance, but they were ready within 15 minutes. The return trip was also very friendly and prompt. Highly recommended!
Checkyeti: First time, it worked great.
