If you are going on holiday to zante you MUST go on the Levante speedboat trip with captain spiros we went on both the trips, the shipwreck wich is the morning trip u gotta get up early as u set sail at 8.30 am, but well worth it. And the keri caves and turtle spotting, and yes u do see them, u also stop at the lovely banana beach, fantastic. it cost 40 euros per person but dont be put off by the price u are on the trip for hours. all the ladies and children get to steer the boat to, spiros and his mate were great. It was by far the best thing we did on our holiday. thanx spiros for a brill time from the girl with the two husbands ha ha ha
If you're going to Zante island, do at least one of the levante speedboat trips!! You will not be disappointed!!
So great to see the island from the water - and both trips are worth it!
Loved being the first to arrive on shipwreck beach, and actually going inside the blue caves .. it really is an amazing experience and one you should try to do on your trip. While literally getting off the boat after the first trip, we booked the second!! And the second trip was just as wonderful; you literally go turtle spotting - so wonderful! And you get to see where the turtles lay their eggs!
It's so nice to be on a boat with about 35 people maximum; especially when you see the big ships coming past with hundreds of people on board. These levante trips are personal; and Captain Spiros is such a character with a great sense of humour - you definitely get what you pay for!! These trips are worth every penny.
Thank you to the wonderful family behind the levante speedboat trips - you trips made our holiday special and unforgettable!
If you are going to Zante you needto take a trip on the Levante Speedboat. Captain Spiros is fantastic and makes sure everyone has a great time. All the ladies get to drive the speedboat too We did the Shipwreck and Blue Caves trip and we had a great time. It's a little more expensive than other boat trips but you get up close and into the caves. Also Captain Spiros will stop the boat at any time if there is something you want to see. At the shipwreck we were there before all the other boats and we were the only people there. We stopped at St Nicholas for lunch and swimming and it was idyllic. We cannot wait till September to go back and do the Keri Caves trip. Bravo Captian Spiros
Thanks Spiros for another fantastic day out!!! We went on the shipwreck trip last year, so this year we just had to take the turtle trip and it didn't disappoint!!! Seeing the turtles was amazing! If your get a chance to go on one (or both!!!) of the trips on the Levante with Captain Spiros definately do it, its money well spent!!
See you soon Spiros for another trip on your boat,
Lee, Clive, Val, Christine, Andy & Nicola xx
(& next time I might just take you up on that job!!!! Lee- the tall one!)

Captain Spiros is a legend, he made my Dad's 60th birthday very special by asking everyone to sing 'happy birthday' in their own language and providing a champagne toast. I HATE boats and Captain Spiros put me completely at ease, we all had a tremendous day. Thanks again Spiros x
We went on Spiros trip to see the Turtles. Best afternoon of our whole holiday (and we had a great two weeks - Zante is a beautiful place). My husband and I sat right at the front and enjoyed the best seat in the house . Spiros took great care of one of our friends who had a bad back and made sure he was comfortable for the whole trip. Thank you Spiros. The worst part was pulling up at the harbour knowing the trip was at an end . Will definately go again on our next visit to Zante - can't wait. Three cheers for Spiros .
Cpt. Spiros is the best!!! When you go to Zakynthos, take the trips with his speedboat (both!) ...you'll have the fun of your life! The island is great, but when you go with him, it's even better!!
Hello captain Spiros!! Greetings from Romania! We miss you and your trips
hi captain spiro, can i say that you are a true legend! your trip was exelent and (appart from my wedding day) was the highlight of my holiday. my son also loved it and thanks to you is no longer afraid of boats. seeing the island in this way was awsome, and you also made it lots of fun. we are coming back in 2010 and will definatley be coming on both your tours again. thanks for making our holiday one to remember!!
thank you once again for another great trip to the wreck and caves. we do this trip very time we go to tsilivi and always enjoy it. my son and his wife were with us this time and they also had a great time.
sorry spiro never made it to your place to collect they wine, save some for me next year. we will be back again sept..2010 and ofcourse will be on your trips. we always recommend your trips to anyone we know who goes to tsilivi. yammas sandy howes
I first went to Zante on my honeymoon and went on the levante speedboat trip to the shipwreck. We had such a great time, the speedboat is fantastic and Captain Spiros is a brilliant guy. He lets every female passenger have a go at steering the boat which makes all the men jealous!! The journey on the boat is all part of the fun, then you get to see the stunning scenery.
The next time we went to Zante, we went on the trip to the blue caves and also turtle spotting which was really good, you get to swim in the caves which was amazing, then you go turtle spotting and Captain Spiros makes sure that you get to see at least one.
I haven't been to Zante this year as I have just had a baby, but I will definately be going next year and will make sure I take my daughter on a trip on the boat and to also meet Captain Spiros!!
See you next year, love Cara and Michael Solomonxx
hello to all. if you are reading all the amazing comments about captain spiros for the trip to smugglers cove
and the blue caves, then all you hear is true!!!! if you are going to zante and plan on going to the caves or smugglers cove, the only way we would recommend is from tsivili with captain spiros. im sureeveryone who has been with him would fully agree. he gave us a trip that we will never forget in our life time.
you must make this trip a priority
when visitng zante!
xxxxxxxxxx
keep up the amazing work that you and the crew do spiros
First time out with Spiros today, we went to the Shipwreck and around the caves and local coastline. We had a fantastic time and would recommend it to anyone.
Normally I am frightened of boats and being at sea, but Spiros made me so relaxed and the trip was so smooth it did not bother me at all. He made everyone feel welcome and looked after us all.
Met him afterwards in a local restaurant and he was still willing to talk to us and see how we were. It just showed me what a genuine man he is and not just after our money.
Cracking trip, we will definitely go on another with him.
just returned from zante, we spent thursday morning on the speedboat trip visiting the shipwreck and caves, it was fantastic ! so much so that we went on the turtle trip the following afternoon.
capatin spiros and philipo made both trips the best we have ever been on ! and they were the highlights of the holiday !
on our last night (saturday) we bumped into captain spiros and he kindly gave us a lift to the greek night at the old vineyard restauarnt , we had great food and were enterniatned by a young couple dancing , and they got everyone up to dance, this made a fitting end to a wonderful holiday, so thanks again and we will be back !
