 We have just got back from a week in Alaykanas and the highlight of our week was a trip on the little train. Brenda is an amazing and funny guide and Spiros is so cute! His passion for the island is infectious and seeing all his hard work in the museum was amazing and very humbling. If you are going to Zante you must go on this trip. It was 12.5 euros and worth every single penny ( euro ) You can book your tickets at Jammys in Alaykaynas but we also just turned up and managed to get on. Have fun!! |

| One of the best trips out I have ever had in Greece! The museum is fascinating ( and amazing when you think that Spiros has done it all himself, no sponsorship or government money). The countryside is so lovely, the little church at Pigadakia is interesting and the hospitality at Spiros taverna is overwhelming (you really do have to keep refusing more wine). Spiros himself is a truly kind man, as I found out when my camera ran out of film. "No problem", he said, and when we got to the church and taverna he put me into his own car and took me up to the supermarket in the middle of the village, waited while I bought a new film then took me back to the taverna. He wouldnt even take a couple of euros for the petrol. Thats the kind of thing that just doesnt happen in the UK.
By the way, you can buy your ticket at the train/excursion office opposite Montes supermarket in Alykes main street, and I think theres another one in Alykanas main street. |

Hi you used to be able to book at the Jam in bar, not sure if this has changed but im sure you can. I will probably be speaking to the lady who runs it soon so if it has changed i will keep you updated.
Thanks hayley |

Thanks for your help Hayley. Do you happen to know if there is somewhere in Alykanas to book the trip as I am sure we booked it from there last time. If not, it is no big deal walking up to Alykes to book. |

Hi you can book the train at the station opposite the main supermarket in Alykes, youcan also book the greek nite here aswell. Hope this helps |

I went on the tourist train a few years ago and really enjoyed it. We are going back to Alykanas this year, but cannot remember where you book this from? Also, how do you go about booking the greek night as we did not go on it last time we were there.
Thanks |

Hi to everyone off the train, i cannot recommed this trip enough and the greek night, we have been numerous times as our friends work on the train and Dave works in the restaurant! It is a brilliant experiance which gets better each year. I'd love to say im going to be back next year but i am 12 weeks pregnant and am not going to be able to get over until 2009 which i am gutted about however i know our baby will love every second as my friends off the train will make every minute special as they always do. I hope you are reading this avril and i cannot wait to see you and dave again even though it is going to be a while.
Take care love Hayley and lee xx |

This is a brilliant trip well worth the money, We happened to see the board about 10 mins before train was due but we were still able to join the trip. Very interesting seeing the history and hospitality at the taverna superb. Raisins have gone down a treat at home |
