Dit kun je verwachten

Lekker eten en gezelligheid, dat staat er allemaal op het menu bij de Popolaros Taverna. Je komt helemaal in de vakantiestemming met deze traditionele Griekse avond. En je laat je de lokale gerechten die zorgvuldig zijn klaargemaakt door Giorgios en zijn team, goed smaken. Zodra de zon ondergaat, worden de kaarsen aangestoken en gaan de acteurs het podium op. Bouzouki deuntjes vullen de lucht, en voor je het weet beweeg je mee op het ritme. Dmitri, een van onze deskundige lokale gidsen, zegt: "Ga met je voeten van de vloer en stort je op de traditionele Griekse dans zeibekiko. Probeer het ritme te volgen terwijl het tempo steeds een tandje hoger gaat."

De avond begint met een transfer naar de gezellige taverna. Daar schuif je aan voor een diner met traditionele gerechten van Zakynthos, waar mogelijk bereid met verse producten van de eigen boerderij van de familie. Het brood wordt gebakken met hun eigen tarwe en ook het meeste vlees komt van de boerderij zelf. De familie verbouwd bovendien biologische groenten voor salades en bijgerechten. En je nipt onbeperkt van de wijn.

Dmitri vertelt: "Mijn herinneringen aan familiebijeenkomsten, vakanties en speciale gelegenheden gaan allemaal over mijn moeder, tantes en oma's die druk aan het bakken zijn. Frigania in de zomer, met rozijnen en walnoten gevulde broodjes met de Kerst en, het hele jaar door, versgebakken brood uit de oven.” In de Popolaros taverna is elk gerecht een ode aan de rijke cultuur en tradities van Griekenland. En terwijl je je maaltijd naar binnen werkt, geniet je van een lokale theatervoorstelling en aanstekelijke Zakynthische muziek.

    Although the dancing and music were very entertaining, we were crammed in the room, eating was awkward.A couple on our table were pushed out by an extra guest , who wanted to be seated with freinds, The couple spoke to the guide who did nothing , so they left upset. Overall would not recommend, due to being uncomfortable with no room to move or eat properly. Maybe they dont adhere to heath and safety much, but in a issue of a fire, ,I'm very sure injuries would occur

    You need to remove the Line unlimited wine from your blurb for the trip. As it is not. Wine comes out for a while then the manager holds a bottle and says 10 Euro's. Not surprisingly people stop asking for wine. He doesn't bring out any more free. However the food is excellent. The first plate that came out people thought that was the main meal. So they struggled to eat the chicken and rice when it came out. The wine itself would be good for taking the top layer of gloss of paint.

    The evening entertainment was good and food ok too many people per table I was sat with the table legs in the way so could not sit to the table comfortably. I was also positioned behind a pillar so this restricted my view. The guide said hello and was there is had any questions other than that did not see her unsure of her purpose for being there the evening self explanatory. Special mention to the bus driver who drove bus 046. Wonderful driver……

Be sure to keep a lookout for loggerheads, and you may even spot a wild dolphin or two.Plus, you'll sail along the Keri peninsula, cruising by its sea-plunging cliffs, caves and lighthouse before dropping anchor for a swim stop at the Bay of Oasis. In the small village of Keri, you have a quick stop to shop for souvenirs, relax in a typical taverna or hit the beach.

Good food and good fun are on the menu at Popolaros Greek Taverna. Get in the holiday mood with this classic Greek evening – you'll try lots of typical local dishes, carefully prepared by Giorgios and his team. As the sun sets over the island, the candles are lit and the actors take to the stage. The sound of the bouzouki fills the air, and you find yourself tapping your feet to the rhythm. Dmitri, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Why not try dancing the zeibekiko traditional Greek dance? You follow the rhythm as the tempo gets faster and faster.'The evening begins with a transfer to the inviting taverna, where you can indulge in the traditional cuisine of Zante, prepared where possible with produce fresh from the family's own farm. Homemade bread is made from their own wheat, and most of the meat is reared on the farm, too. Organic vegetables are grown by the family for salads and sides, and you'll even get unlimited wine to sip on.Dmitri says, ‘My memories of family gatherings, holidays and special occasions all involve my mother, aunts and grannies baking. Frigania in summer, raisin and walnut-stuffed buns at Christmas and, all year-round, wood-fired oven-baked bread.' Popolaros is a traditional taverna where every dish is a celebration of the rich culture and traditions of Greece. As you finish your meal, sit back and enjoy a performance of local theatre with infectious Zakynthian music.

Smuggler's Cove half-day cruise with panoramic drive

Smuggler's Cove half-day cruise with panoramic drive

Smuggler's Cove is a picture-postcard white pebble beach with a surprise – a shipwreck from an alleged smuggler who ran aground here in the early 80s. On this half-day boat trip, you'll cruise along the coast to see this famous spot, discover secret coves, swim and soak up the scenery. Kay, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Smuggler's Cove is also known as Shipwreck Beach, or “Navagio” in Greek. It's only accessible by boat, and it's one of the most photographed places in the whole of Greece.'After pick-up, enjoy a scenic drive to Porto Vromi – it takes up to 90 minutes – and hop on a boat towards Smuggler's Cove. You'll have half an hour or so to take in the vistas from the deck before the imposing white cliffs appear, sheltering the cove and its famous wreck. The 200-metre-high cliffs curve and swoop down behind the beach, dwarfing the shipwreck. Kay says, ‘To preserve the natural beauty of the area, instead of disembarking at Smuggler's cove, we'll pause here to admire the scenery and take a few Insta-perfect snaps.'Next, your captain will drop anchor at a nearby bay, and you'll have time to swim in the dazzling waters surrounded by Zante's coastal landscapes – don't forget your snorkel mask for spotting the colourful fish, coral and starfish here. Then, as we cruise back towards Porto Vromi, your captain will take you to a smooth, white-pebbled beach, a place so secret it doesn't even show up on Google. Cool off with a swim stop here and hear the story of the 'Poseidon's Face' – a rock formation believed to depict Poseidon, God of the sea – before setting off for the final leg back to shore.
