Zakynthos: Complete Guide with Walks (Sunflower Complete)

exactly what I wanted, information on the flora, fauna, history, culture, some tourist bits (accommodation and restaraunts) but not over the top, like some more well known publishers

This was a useful little book to direct us to some interesting places in our hire car and on foot. I found it all very accurate in terms of clear maps and info. The only time it was incorrect was in stating there was no charge to enter the vemetian fortress at Bochali. Its now 4 euros per person. Excellent guide book

I spent ages trying to find a decent guide to Zante (Zakynthos) as most of them were just for the Greek Islands or Ionian Islands. This book is one of the best guides I have purchased, as it is full of interesting information and gives tours of the island, whether you are on foot or driving around. The photos are excellent quality too. I would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a book about this beautiful island

Lots of interesting and drawn maps detailing local walks, not much information on the big tourist areas or how to get there etc, I think this books needs supplementing with a LP or DK tour guide.

Covers all the beaches, towns, villages, churches, monasteries, other sites of interest. Full of illustrations, routes for walks, and maps. Good whether you want to drive or take walks. Very well-illustrated. Written by someone who lives there & knows the island like the back of her hand. Best Zakinthos guide I've come across.

This book is the best guide of Zakynthos that I have ever read and I have read many. It is informative from every aspect and exactly what anyone wanting to learn about the beautiful island of Zakynthos should be looking for. I have nothing but admiration for the author, Gail Schofield for the way she has put this book together. I will certainly be looking for more of her books.

Have just bought this guide book for an impending holiday to Zakynthos. It seems to have all the information you could want, especially if you plan to walk a lot. I will be hiring a car whilst there and the book includes car tours, which no doubt I will make use of. The book has just been recommended on a Zante website forum and other people have been buying it due to the recommendaion and been very pleased with it.

Bought last year for a return trip to zakynthos. The guide was very useful, clear instructions nice photos. Gives good local knowledge and saves a lot of time, helps you decide exactly where you want to go and what you want to see.
