- Join me on the island of Zakynthos a Greek island in the Ionian Sea and a well-known summer resort. The harbour city of Zakynthos is the capital and major hub, centred around waterfront Solomos Square. Popular beaches like Agios Nikolaos, Alykanas and Tsilivi offer swimming and water sports. Accessed by boat, Navagio Beach is the site of a famed 1980 shipwreck resting in a sandy cove framed by cliffs.

Looking forward to this video Tim! Glad you stayed in Tsilivi x
Big love ty for all this amazing content
Brilliantly presented as always Tim! Brilliant informative video about the BEST Greek island 🏝️, Tsilivi is the best resort and Sandra’s is great as you drive into The resort
Great video, Zante looks beautiful. Have you ever been to Parga? (mainland Greece)
Beware of going to Alektor Restaurant they will charge you the earth and will not give you a menu so you don't know what you are being charged!
This is the best video you’ve ever made Tim, loved it, such a pretty island! 😀
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent work
i think Greece is the gem of europe.its beautiful not much expensive,friendly people,amazing food ,amazing night life ,beautiful women,heavenly landscapes,amazing weather,perfect mood.
what else someone will need than that???
iam doing my vacation at this country since 1994 and i feel more greek than danish.
i am not lie but greece changed my life ,it gave me will to live.
As a Greek, I HAVE to suggest Mani. It's on mainland so not many know about it. the sea is so clean that you can find sea turtles. I would lose it if you did a tour there. It's a very different mix of landscapes (i suggest the Laconian side) with an amazing history and they call it the land of stone and light
Not sure if that is his style going to hard to reach places. He goes with his wife and he mixes it up with known tourist areas and visits places that surround. I like his videos as they seem to reach a broad crowd and he does it in a fun pace. Going and doing rick Steve style videos don't seem like a good idea. I think rhodes would fit the format well.
So many beautiful places in the Peloponnese. Lived here in Greece for 35+ years (hubby is Greek). For the last couple of years we have been going to Leonidio (Semeli Apartments - also has great camping site next door). It's not a touristy place but I like the relative peace and it's great for the young grandkids as it's literally right on the beach. Off there again next week for annual holiday.
@@1961Jannie totally! many nice places in the area. And because they are not touristy they maintain a natural beauty and calm that to me is more impressive than squeezing in queues in Santorini :D Enjoy the holiday!
Oh wow where is Greek ?
My favourite Greek island is Skiafos, last year went to Ketholonia on a yoga retreat, going back this year , I understand why Greece is so popular!!
Talk about a James Bond type rescue of the swimming trunks! And thank goodness you did rescue them as you wouldn't have been able to jump off that cliff otherwise!!!! Made me giggle! Fantastic video Tim with brilliant filming of all the places to visit, food, scenic excursions, jumping off cliffs, etc. etc.!! I think you covered just about everything including a traditional Greek night out with plates smashing and ring of fire dancing! Wow. Every video just gets more entertaining and professional.😄 x J x
ha ha ha
Never been to Greece, but this looks amazing. You've opened my eyes to a beauty!
Give it a go
I like the Zante video do consider Skiathos I think you get it mixed up with santorini skiathos is it’s own island and it’s Europe’s St Martin you see in the Caribbean planes look like they are landing on your head
probably your best vid ever Tim , Fantastic and so entertaining 💯❤🔥
Love Greece. Just back from Lesvos which has really suffered due to the migrant crisis. There are honestly no problems there. Such a beautiful and unspoilt island and our new favourite
I holidayed in Laganas over 25 years ago when it was still relatively quiet and i wasn't keen, but the rest of Zakynthos is lovely. However, I discovered it's neighbouring island of Kefalonia in 2001 and I've been obsessed with it ever since. I've just come back from a month there, but even that wasn't long enough. It's beautiful, quiet and unspoilt and if you visit the main town of Argostoli, you can't fall to see the majestic loggerhead turtles that live in the lagoon. I think the ones you saw were terrapins as loggerheads are big animals. I've been to Lesvos, Skiathos, Rhodes, Symi, Skopelos, Alonissos and many times to Corfu, but Kef is the only place for me now.
SSSSSSSsssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh we need to keep it a secret! 😄
Totally agree, Argostoli is beautiful. Been a couple of times, and stayed in Fiskardo a couple of times as well, really like it there, some great restaurants and bars. Usually stayed In kef going over from staying in Ithaca for a couple of weeks. You been there?
I’m going in October. So excited about it!
@@mrsp-notsosecretdiary 🤣🤣fair point. 👍
@deano100able never been to Ithaca, but I'll get there one day.
I know it doesn't mean a lot to many, but when I saw that the Jasmine had a chunky Vegan section on the menu, my heart soared! That is one thing I worry about going abroad on holiday, finding any (let alone so many on here) vegan options! Awesome!
Been to Zante over 10 years ago. Loved it. People, place, music, it's all relaxing.
Couldn't agree more!
Tim brilliant editing your skills not only on camera but the editing part of it is brilliant, great transitions & music choices!
thanks Tim
Crete is my favorite island
check out my video from there too
We've not gone to Zakynthos before, but because of your great review, we will be booking a trip. Thanks, Tim 🙂😎👍
Wow
I love the Ionian islands, so green wnd pretty. Zakynthos has a special place in my heart
agree
Me too Lauren
What a beautiful place Tim. You did outstanding on this video.Gorgeous views and weather☀️
Beautiful place!!! We love Rhodes, i ve been several Greek Islands and Rhodes is my favourite
I like Rhodes too
Loved this video Tim as I’ve never been to Greece. Zante looked so pretty, the sea so clear and the sky so blue. I’m amazed you managed to scoop your swim shorts from the sea whilst driving the boat!
The Greek night looked good and I loved the traditional music.
You should book a trip wendy
Those people rambling about the clifftop. Are they absolutely mad?
Loved the shorts rescue!
Not sure why but I’ve never even considered Zante when thinking about holiday destinations, but definitely will now. Looked amazing 🤩
what a beautiful island! I am sure with the family this would be super enjoyable, especially exploring the island :D
It really is!
Great video Tim! I was lucky to get to visit Zante when I was about 20, staying at Kalamaki. Unbelievable place, got to see a turtle swimming with us while on a pedalo
Taking my kids on their first holiday abroad next year to Kefalonia. Your vid reminds me how nice Greece is.
yes and so many islands to explore
Wow what a beautiful place, I’m off to look for a holiday ❤
lol
Looking forward to this video!
Hope you like it!
Me and the wife are going next year looking forward to this on. 😀
Hope you enjoy
Love Greek people as I work with one. The country is just beautiful. The architecture is awesome. Never been, but I'd definitely love to.
You should!
I will visit it's very nice 😍😍 Thanks Tim
I was on one of the last tourists boats to go to that beach and walk on it and see the shipwreck before they closed it last year. I was in Zante 2 weeks ago and back there very soon. My favourite holiday destination
Corfu has got to be my favorite island i remember going their a lot when a kid
Love Zante, went many years ago, Laganas wasn’t to bad then, wouldn’t entertain it now. Ζάκυνθος 💙🇬🇷
Fantastic Tim!
Loved that
Loved it! Great video Tim! Thank you ❤
Fabulous video of a beautiful island Tim. I can’t believe how big the resort of Laganas is now, when I was last there almost 30 years ago it was a relatively small and quiet resort with no huge bars or clubs. The island across from Laganas used to be known as goat island because a billy goat lived there, we took a boat across and we were the only people there. No bars, nothing. It was so lovely seeing the island again and although I love Zante, my favourite Greek island is Skiathos.
Glad you enjoyed it
hi Tim i really like these videos there really fun to watch! When your back in the UK could you do more hotel reviews of Britannia hotels!
I will try!
We stayed in a private villa just along the beach at Kalamaki. One morning after the beach patrol passed us and gave the go ahead we found a baby Caretta-Caretta (loggerhead) turtle in the shallows. We called the patrol back who picked up the baby and reburied it in the sand, this was late September/early October. My favourite Greek island has to be Kerkyra/Corfu which we visited a few times in the late 1990's.
Wow,this was amazing,thanks so much for taking us with you.👍
Great video Tim, looks beautiful and so glad you managed to rescue your shorts! 😂
Great video, amazing colours on the coastline.
Agree in the hight of the summer it's just so beautiful
Love this video Tim. Something for everyone ❤
Another great video Tim. I have been lucky enough to visit nine of the Greek Islands and I think my favorites were Crete, Poros, Rhodes and Skiathos. But saying that, each and everyone I have visited have been lovely in different ways and never had a bad holiday. The Greeks are warm and friendly and the food is delicious. The thing I really like about Greece and its islands is the chilled and relaxed way of life and I always feel content and happy when I am there.
cool. liked the boat you got.
Zante is absolutely lovely. I bought a pot of moisturiser from a stall along a road. I love it so much, I still buy it to this day. It comes from Crete. It take a while to get to me and it’s expensive, but so worth it. It’s only got olive oil and aloe Vera in it.
Zakynthos is simply BREATHTAKING ...
Tim flapping whilst driving the boat 😂Gaby would of made a better captain for sure!
lol
well done tim! one of the best "why you SHOULD visit" episodes you've done yet.
Loved this Tim, looks an amazing place, that sea so clear, you did well jumping from the heights into the sea,well done you 😮,food looked good too. Very friendly people, that's what you need on hols. Thanks for sharing ,bye for now, stay safe xx😊
Thanks Hazel
Absolutely loved this video Tim, loved seeing you driving that boat 👍
Another great watch, cheers Tim❤
Glad you enjoyed it
So much to do in Zante. Always stay in Tsillivi great all round resort
agree
Kefalonia is beautiful.
Enjoyed this Tim. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Fab video Tim love Zante it’s a beautiful island and you did it justice ❤
what did you do today?
me: watch Tim chase his Hollister shorts 😂
lol
What a lovely island
Great Video as always Tim
Thanks 👍
Absolutely love Zakynthos, been 3 times and stayed in Kalamaki next door to Laganas. Lovely little resort, nicely chilled during the day and some lovely bars and restaurants, not too lively but enough to keep you entertained. My favourite Greek islands is Ithaca. Spent many a summer there as my mum used to rep there every year. Very quiet tiny island and very Greek, off the usual tourist route. Very popular with people sailing around the islands. Vathi the capital is lovely and has many big super yachts parked up in the harbour. The locals are so welcoming and it has really great festivals in the summer
Great video Tim! I really enjoyed it.
thanks Louise
Thanks Tim enjoyed your video ,what wonderful views look forward to the next Yvonne 😊
Brilliant video one of your best
Wow, thanks!
That was brilliant thank you Tim! I went to Zante when I was about 16 and loved it. I remember going to see the shipwreck from the viewing area. I laughed so much when you lost your swimming shorts in the sea but I’m glad you got hold of them! 😂 That Greek night looked lots of fun, I feel like booking up now 😊
This was an amazing video! I really enjoyed every minute of it! The Greek night looked fun.
Thanks so much
Oh Tim what a stunning video. Looks so beautiful, now on my places to visit, love the plate smashing and opas!!
Another amazing video, I really enjoyed it. Thank you Tim 😊
My pleasure!
Love Zante lovely place
The best!
What a beautiful looking holiday island Zante is. I’ve never visited Greece or any of the islands but after watching this maybe I need to. Beautiful hot sunny weather too something that we’re not getting in the UK at present. Love the restaurant and entertainment. Great vlog 👍
You should! David the British summer is being well British
@@WalkWithMeTim yes totally agree
Loved the video. I’ve been to Zante twice and this video is making me long to go back!
great video Tim, really loved it, especially the trunk recue...legend
Thanks 👍
Fantastic video i have never seen a sea so blue 💙
Me neither
Great video Tim, and I was so proud you when you jumped of the platform. I couldn’t do that, as I’m not a massive fan of heights.
Massive proud of him and he's in good shape @sixpack
me either lol
ha ha was you looking through special glasses then because I dont
@@WalkWithMeTim glasses? What do mean?
Love the videos Tim 👍🏻
Thanks dave
Been watching all of ur vids over the last few weeks .. really enjoy the show! Keep up the good work ✌️😎🔥
Awesome! Thank you!
I loved this excellent vlog Tim,Could be your best ever!..We are thinking of going to one of the Greek Island next year,and Ive visited a few other Greek Islands,but I've never been to Zakynthos before,so now I am tempted to try it out,looking forward to your next vlog
thank you
I first went to Zante in 1985, Lagana was pretty quiet a few bars and a couple of small nightclubs. Understand it's become a madhouse of a town. I wouldn't go to Zakynthos now, far too busy. Kefalonia is more to my liking now.
This week we will visit the island, so thank you for the introduction, we loved it!
What a beautiful place !!! Stunning footage as always
Always wanted to go to Zante but everyone said no it’s not that nice but your video has shown how beautiful it is. Just have to convince my daughter to go as she wants to go back to Minorca. Great video as always
thanks Lindsay
Brilliant tour Tim, you definitely sold it to me, looks like a beautiful place to explore… and that was some good value car rental 👍 Could you walk to beach from your hotel?
Yes was only about 5 mins
@@WalkWithMeTim Too easy, cheers for the reply Tim 😀
Great video, Tim!
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful thanks for taking us all along 😊
My pleasure 😊
Brilliant vid as always Tim ❤ we stayed in Argassi, Zakynthos in 2016 & 2017 and even managed two full daytrips from resort to Kefalonia and Olympia on the mainland. You must take Gaby and Casper ❤ Love love love beautiful Greece 🇬🇷 xx
Thank you
This was a great vlog again I loved that restaurant so nice there are still authentic restaurants in these tourist destinations would you do a Mallorca vlog? 😊
yes maybe next year
Fantastic video, Tim. I enjoyed it very much. Makes me want to go there right now 👏👌👍
Go for it!
I spent 10 years worth of summers in Zakynthos, from 1978 to 1988. Haven't been there since. I was shocked to see how many things are still the same, and how many have dramatically changed. "Banana Beach" used to be absolutely empty. Then one year we found a small canteen that only served salads. The next year it had added eggs to the menu. Cut to what I saw in this video...
Hi Tim. We are off to Zante in 29 days. My 6th time. I'm staying in kalamaki this time, excellent for families and couples wanting a little more peace. You did get round the island, excellent vlog, many thanks. 😊
I have been going to Rhodes in Greece for the past 3 years in a row this year will be my 4th in September, Zakynthos looks amazing. Hope you had a good time and safe trips onwards!
thanks yes maybe give it a try next time
@@WalkWithMeTim If you ever do, there is an all inclusive hotel called Avra Beach Resort and I've been there constantly. Private Beach, watch planes fly past ready to land, views of Turkey in the distance, 10-15 mins away from Airport, delicious food, lovely rooms and the staff are so friendly that my whole family are friends with them that we are recognised each time we return! Restaurant very nice and modern with nice delicious foods. This hotel is on Jet2 as well. (Not an ad or anything like that for the Hotel + Jet2, just my 'review' or some detail about the Hotel!)
I'm there in Rhodes in September. First time to the island. :) Looking forward to it ! 😊
@@rockinrachel1670 It is really nice, too hot for me to handle but it's still really nice
@@therealmasonicbwe hopefully won't be as hot in September! Off to Pefkos :) I love Greece, the people are so nice.
Keep Rocking Tim😎
I'm hoping to go to Zakynthos next year, & this vid has been very informative
As a zoologist can I just point out the terrible injuries done from outbound motors to turtles and other aquatic creatures 😢
I did a similar tour here with a local turtle preservation organisation called Archelon via great local travel group Nefis. if they’re out on the water their boat captain yells over a tannoy at anyone going too fast.
They’re also really hot on anyone dropping things in the water… 😂
I wondered about that 💔
Hi Tim. Never been to Greece but planning to go in the future sometime. I loved seeing the totally different beaches. I also like the Greek dancing it was amazing seeing the fire dance.
These videos make my day better thanks Tim
Thanks josh
Always fancied Greece
Zante is fantastic. Loved going there so much to do. We stayed in the same village you did and would love to go back there
It really is!
Ive never been to Greece but it looks amazing . Thanks for taking me with you 😃🍹
My pleasure 😊
Looks amazing place, definitely have to go, fantastic blog as always Tim.
Absolutely
Well done Tim brilliant informative video the island is certainly pretty.Keep up the good work.
