Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We booked the Shipwreck & Blue Caves Tour with Nefis Travel based on their fantastic reviews and we were not disappointed! Communication was brilliant the whole way through, we were picked up and dropped off at the given times to our hotel and the trip was brilliant! I wouldn't personally book with anyone else. The reviews speak for themselves! Thank you Nefis! We will be back!

We were thrilled with our bus and boat tour with Mia. Honestly, it was the best day of our visit in Greece!

WOW! What a trip! We did the Shipwreck and Blue Cave tour and it was amazing! Got some lovely photos and plenty of time in the sea. Enough time to have lunch. Great value for money would 100% recommend for anyone visiting Zante!

We had the best time on this tour with Nefis and Jackie. Every detail was taken care of. The bus, the boat, the stops.. Not a single complaint. Of all our excursions during our cruise this was the most professionally run. Thanks Nefis..

We did the Back to Roots tour and it was so lovely! Walking through the lovely villages and meeting the locals was amazing. We were given sweets and basil for good luck. The scenery was outstanding. Jackie was our tour guide and she was lovely and informative and a great singer too! No complaints whatsoever. The home made cake at the first museum was delicious and they were all lovely there. The Cross Taverna was in a great location and food was really good value. The monks at the monastery were so talented and humble. The day flew by and we had a great time.

We were a family of 3 and our UK tour company did not offer day excursions so we chose 2 with Nevis travel.The pick ups were punctual and the four guides were excellent and knowledgeable. Prices were not excessive and everything that was advertised happened.
2 really enjoyable day trips.Thank you all from booking to end

Fantastic, from looking at sales unit the team were friendly and informative. Not pushy. We selected a tour of the island And duly paid. We then looked at a second trip which was sold out, the lady said they may put on a 2nd coach and if I wished they would let me know, which they did and held our booking until we got back to pay.
Both tours were amazing
The secret tour which included a tapas style dinner and Greek music and the Back to the roots tour which took us all around the island . At the end of the tour we were presented with a beautiful bottle of wine from Nefis for our 40th wedding anniversary. A really nice touch from an amazing company. Thank you.

We booked the trip on line. Communication was excellent to arrange our booking. If we had of been there longer we would have booked more trips with this Company.
On the day we were collected on time in a lovely clean mini bus. The driver was friendly and Mia our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable.
Each stop on the tour was just long enough. I would highly recommend the freshly made cake at the Folk Museum stop and please buy a hand made chicken from the lady in the village, its so important to support the locals. The view from the restaurant at lunch is stunning and the food was lovely.
We had a lovely day and learnt alot about the island and its people. Thank you Nefis Travel.

We used Nefis for two trips during our three week stay on Zakynthos - A day tour to Kefalonia island and a day tour to Olympia on the Greek mainland. Absolutely brilliant. The tour guide - Mia - was marvellous. I don’t know how she keeps up her good humour, whilst being so informative and interesting and making everyone feel special. You see a lot on these tours - which I would think would be very difficult to do on your own - and the transport they use of a high quality. A very easy company to deal with, they respond quickly and courteously and are very efficient and personable. Resanably priced. Highly recommnend.

Not done this trip myself but was talking to a couple who did it last year and they said it was fantastic. However it used to be a 2 day tour but apparently is now only one do I would imagine it's a very long day.

Hello,
Is it possible to buy drinks on your ship while traveling? Does the ship have a toilet?
MattS27

Hello, yes the boat has a bar on deck and the seating is not over crowded. There are toilets on board, although they are not great and leak. I also noted they have no soap, so take wipes!
Taking the toilets out of the equation, it was a good trip.

Hello, my sister and I are interested in purchasing tickets to the VIP Zante Secret Senses Evening OUt activity, however, we are confused. The title says evening out but the description says pick up at 8:30a.m. Is this a day or eveing tour. Also, do you pick up guests at the hotels they are staying in?

Hi, it’s an evening trip. We were staying in Tsilivi & was picked up from outside the supermarket near our hotel at about 5.20pm. I think we were dropped off about 10.15. .

How many people do the boats hold for say the shipwreck or turtle tours?
Wendy R
Sheffield, United Kingdom115 contributions
Shipwreck is about 50, 25 on each speedboat. As the first on the beach that morning it didn’t feel overcrowded in any way.
Turtles was about the same (1 full coach) but the boat is much bigger and there was space to change easily for the swim stops. Again, full but not overcrowded.
Both trips felt fine.

Hi do you need to take a packed lunch on back to the roots or Kefalonia tour please? Or are there plenty of places to stop for food and a Mythos?:)

We went with Nefis travel.I took fruit and rolls but never ate them. We stopped for tea and cake and then a good lunch at a marvelous tarvena where Jackie Boot and Nicos sang to us! It’s an u forgettable day out with Jackie being the most wonderful guide and a fountain of knowledge! Also great fun and very reasonable price.
