A maximum of 8 guests. A luxury 8-seat minivan for the land half. A premium boat for the sea half. One full day covering Bochali, Navagio, White Beach, Blue Caves, and Xigia — with swimming stops included.
This is Ioneon Travel’s signature combo tour — the only small-group itinerary in Zakynthos that covers the island’s best viewpoints by land and its most iconic sea landmarks by boat, back to back, in a single day. Every detail is deliberate. The group size is capped. The experience is designed.
Your day begins in a luxury 8-seat minivan — not a 16-seater coach, not a public shuttle. When we say maximum 8 guests, we mean it. This is non-negotiable. It is the reason the land portion of this tour feels private even though it isn’t technically a private charter. You know everyone in the van. You can actually hear your guide. You stop when you want photographs, not when the schedule demands it.
After Bochali, your minivan takes you to Agios Nikolaos harbour on the north coast — the departure point for the boat leg. The boat is a premium vessel running a managed group size. This is not a 60-person ferry. You’re boarding with a curated group of guests, all of whom are on the same itinerary. The captain knows every cave entrance, every current, every angle for Navagio. Two and a half hours on the Ionian, with open swimming stops at the most iconic spots in Greece.
The boat takes you to three of the most iconic spots on the north coast — the legendary Shipwreck Beach, the secluded White Beach, and the mesmerising Blue Caves. Two and a half hours on the water, with swimming stops and plenty of time for photos.
Note: Landing on Navagio Beach is prohibited since 2022 due to rockfall risk. The boat anchors in the bay for photography and swimming from the vessel.
A private minivan charter from Kalamaki to Navagio costs €350–€450 minimum. Add a private boat and you’re at €700–€800 or more for two people. The Land & Sea Tour at €60 per person gives you the same islands, the same stops, and the same level of attention — because the group is genuinely small. You are not compromising on experience. You are removing the premium mark-up.
Most combo tours in Zakynthos run 16 to 24 people in a coach. That is a different product. This is 8 seats, maximum. For 3 or 4 people travelling together, this is the most efficient, highest-quality day on the island at any price point. For solo travellers or couples, it is the version of this itinerary you can actually afford without the compromise.
The Land & Sea Tour runs approximately 9 hours in total. Departure is at 09:00 from our office in Kalamaki. You return at approximately 18:00. The morning land section takes around 2 hours. The boat trip from Agios Nikolaos covers 2.5 hours on the water, plus boarding and disembarkation time.
Yes, completely. The luxury 8-seat minivan seats exactly 8 guests. We do not add seats, we do not operate a second vehicle on the same itinerary, and we do not increase capacity on busy days. If 8 seats are sold, the tour is full. Book early, especially in July and August.
Yes. The €60 per person price includes both the minivan tour and the 2.5-hour boat trip to Navagio, White Beach and Blue Caves. There are no hidden extras. Note: landing on Navagio Beach has been prohibited since 2022 — the boat enters the bay for photography and swimming from the vessel.
Yes. Hotel pickup is available from Laganas, Kalamaki, Tsilivi, Argasi, and Zakynthos Town at +€10 per person. Simply mention your hotel when booking and we will coordinate pickup timing.
Yes — this is one of our most family-friendly experiences. The minivan leg is air-conditioned and comfortable for all ages, with frequent stops and no long drives. The boat section departs from a calm, sheltered harbour and moves at a relaxed pace. We regularly take families with children from age 4 upwards. Life jackets are available in all sizes on board. If your child has specific needs — nap times, food restrictions, motion sensitivity — let us know when booking and we will plan around them.
Absolutely. Unlike mass-market group tours where the schedule is fixed for 30 strangers, our Land & Sea Tour operates with genuine flexibility. If the children want to stay longer at a swim stop, we stay longer. If someone needs a break from the sun, we find shade. We keep groups small on purpose — so your family is never rushed, never waiting, and never compromised by people you did not arrive with. Just tell us your priorities when you book.
All tours depart from our office, opposite Zakynthos Airport in Kalamaki.
