Retken kuvaus

Olympialaisten syntymäpaikka sijaitsee Manner-Kreikassa, joten sinun tulee vain ylittää Joonianmeri päästäksesi paikalle. Seilaa lautalla Zakynthokselta muinaiseen Olympiaan, jossa astut ajassa vuosisatoja taaksepäin ja vierailet mielenkiintoisessa arkeologisessa museossa. Konstantina, yksi paikallisoppaistamme, sanoo: "Olympia on sijainnut siellä yli 2 500 vuotta, ja se on edelleen inspiroiva paikka. Sen raunioilla on ihana kierrellä ja yhteys menneisyyden kanssa on erityinen tunne."

Kun olet saapunut maihin Kyllinissä, ajamme tomaatti-, meloni- ja puuvillapeltojen läpi yhteen antiikin tärkeimmistä pyhäköistä. Tutustu paikkaan, jossa ensimmäiset Olympialaiset järjestettiin 700-luvulla ennen ajanlaskumme alkua. Näe juoksuradat ja stadion, jossa 45 000 katsojaa kannusti suosikkiurheilijoitaan. Opas esittelee sinulle alkuperäisen stadionin – näet muun muassa maaliviivan ja kuntosalin – sekä uskonnollisia pyhäkköjä, samalla kun iPad havainnollistaa, miltä se, mitä nyt katselet, näytti aikoinaan.

Näet myös Heran temppelin rauniot, jossa Olympialaisten tuli sytytettiin, ja Zeuksen temppelin rauniot, jossa sijaitsi aikoinaan yksi antiikinajan maailman seitsemästä ihmeestä, Zeuksen patsas. Sen jälkeen vierailet arkeologisessa museossa, jossa näet lisää aarteita ja muinaisjäännöksiä. Lopuksi suuntaamme Olympian kaupunkiin, jossa sinulla on aikaa nauttia lounas ja kierrellä matkamuistomyymälöissä.

Turtle spotting cruise to Marathonisi Island and Keri Peninsula

Loggerhead sea turtles have been residents of Zante's beaches for thousands of years, and with a bit of luck, you'll see them first-hand on this boat trip. Join an expert local guide for an educational day out at sea, passing by nesting sites, swimming in hidden bays and spending time in the village of Keri. Bianca, one of our guides, says, ‘In just one trip, you get to jump into clear waters, cruise along the Keri peninsula and, with luck, see turtles.'Available either in the morning from Zante harbour or the afternoon from Keri harbour, this half-day cruise is a real treat for all the family. You'll pass by the golden beaches of Vassilikos and Marathonisi, a pine-clad islet dubbed ‘Turtle Island'. The reason's simple – one of its beaches is a favourite turtle nesting site. Bianca, who's lived on Zante for more than 20 years, says of the scenery, ‘You can do this tour a thousand times and every day is different.' 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. What's more, a volunteer from local conservation group ARCHELON – the Sea Turtle Protection Society of Greece – will be on board to tell give you the lowdown on its work.

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 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.
