Such an amazing day, not only did we see the beautiful sights around the whole Island of Zante coastline. We had 3 beautiful swim stops in crystal clear waters. The atmosphere on Pirate style ship was amazing. Fantastic music and dancing with lovely food on offer. One minor thing is to make sure you have cash as once out at sea they have no use of card machine facilities so cash is a must for food and drinks on board! An amazing day had by both adults and children alike!

What an amazing day! We were at sea for about 8 hours and saw the most breathtaking views and blues sea! We travelled the whole way around the island and had 3 swim stops which were absolutely beautiful and relaxing! One of our friends lost a (very expensive!) bracelet and one of the crew didn’t hesitate to jump in when we spotted it on the sea floor!! Absolute kudos to that man! Plenty of drink and snacks aboard to keep you fuelled and a fab atmosphere!

Bad experience, we were there at the place peter tours 08:30. The bus man and the man of peter tours said this is not his organisation and didn’t want to take us. We paid? Not normal

Viator very poor service... Never got picked up on booked day, then was offer to reschedule. After second attempt the following day. Again had to phone the office to chase why we never got picked up again. Finally after the tour got dropped off in complete different location from original pickup point and had to arrange private taxi at own cost to get back. Refund process is a complete joke, avoid at all cost.

We signed up to do this tour and they changed the pickup location three times the night before our tour which was fine, but also slightly annoying to have them calling several times while out to dinner. The next day we showed up to where they said they would pick us up and we were there 15 minutes early. We waited for an hour and 15 minutes and they never showed up. While we were waiting I emailed the tour operator, messaged them through Viator, called the number that called me the night before, and called the number listed on the site and received no response for 30 minutes. When I finally did receive a response they said just wait we will be there soon. I waited for another 20 minutes before asking when and they responded with soon. They never showed up and we left because we didn't want to waste our trip. I asked for a refund and later that day they said they couldn't refund me and tried to blame the whole pickup thing on me by saying that they came to the hotel but we weren't there and I reminded them that they told us to go to the grocery store. They also said they sent a taxi for us but we waited there for over an hour and there was not a taxi in sight. They said they could take us on the half day cruise on a speedboat instead of a refund. We reluctantly agreed. The pickup on the second time was much smoother. The half day cruise does the same stops just for a shorter period which honestly was better in my opinion. The seas were very rough the day we went and they didn't have enough seating for everyone so some people had to sit on folding chairs and plastic deck chairs. An elderly gentleman was sitting in one and it fell and he looked like he got hurt. I would not recommend this excursion to anyone but if you do decide to book it, book the half day, not the full day. Smugglers cove was extremely busy and not that cool in my opinion and the swim stop was nice, but not necessary. Depending on your group size, I would recommend renting a private boat because it is very reasonable and you can visit the same sites for however long you wish.

Definitely a worthwhile excision. Beautiful sights, amazing boat, lovely staff and an all round beautiful experience. The bar was great with a good selection of food and drink at reasonable prices. A few things to improve though. Loud music blasting the entire day. 9am-6pm constant loud music. They need to chill on that as it gets annoying after a while. The pick up arrangements left us a little out of the know, having changed our hotel pickup time last minute via a message to our hotel rather than direct. The coach back to the hotel was delayed for ages and we decided to get a taxi rather than wait in the heat. Lastly, they blow an insanely loud horn which shocks everyone on board each time and is extremely uncomfortable. Chill on the horn! Other than that, definitely book it, but be prepared for the few annoying bits that are included.

Booked this as part of our honeymoon visit to the island, and it didn’t disappoint. The boat itself was clean and plenty on offer for food and drinks, take cash with you. You’ll need water shoes if you plan on going onto navagio beach as it’s a pebble beach, the views are amazing! The guides speak English and Deutsch. Two other stops at the blue caves and Xigia beach. Brilliant day out and we were lucky as the sea was calm on that day. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

A long but memorable day! The beauty of the Island is like nothing I have experienced in the past, absolutely stunning. The crew were fun and helpful too. The 3 stops to swim were the highlight of the trip for me. A 4th stop towards the end of the day would have been better since it got a little warm. The ship is very cool and rustic and have plenty of room to spread out with your group. I would definitely recommend this excursion. It might be somewhat challenging for people 70 or older getting in and out of the water depending on how physically fit they are.

There were 3 stopping spots we could swim, 2 of them was a little bit wavy so not too pleasant. The shipwreck- uniqle view and beautiful color, however too many tourists/groups/ships there at the same time. Rocky beach so be sure to go with beach shoes otherwise expect painful feet. The 3rd stopping point was spectacular- crystal clear and peaceful water for swim. I wouldn't say it's a family friendly journey as most of the time parents couldn't just let kids swim- not safe I would say. The other thing is- I had to complain about the music. The playlist was somewhat from 90s, and super super LOUD. After a whole day accidentally sitting under the speaker, my husband and I both had headache. All in all, good for the price, hotel pickup and drop off is definitely a plus.

Didnt get to Smugglers cove weather too rough at sea but disappointing. But enjoyed the other views and swimming.Lovely crew and boat very enjoyable Zante is a beautiful island hope to come back soon 🐢⛱🐚🌞🌞

A spectacular day sailing and swimming. Very well organised. The coach arrived on time to take us to the boat. The boat had everything you need such as life jackets if wanted, hot and cold food at reasonable prices, and a excellent guide full of information. definitely take your snorkels guys, the swimming is unbelievable.

This is a definite one-off that must be done when you are in Zante. The day long tour around the island in a pirate ship gives you views that you wouldn't see any other way. The ship itself is pretty big and was very full on the day we went, but that didn't spoil things too much. The stunning views, sunshine and sea breeze were awesome. We were lucky with the tides and weather which meant we had a smooth trip and managed to get up close and personal with some of the caves and beaches. The first swim stop was a very refreshing break by the caves. Our next stop was the infamous Smugglers Cove. You are reliant on the weather as to how close to the beach you can get off the ship and explore, or even if at all if the sea is too choppy. We anchored just off the beach and so walked down the ramp into knee depth water. A word of warning here - the currents are very strong in the harbour and as the beach is a fine shingle rather than sand you can lose your footing very easily! Unfortunately, I did and gave my Nikon a swimming lesson in the process :-( The one negative of the day happened here when one impatient member of the crew tried to rush my Mother-in-Law onto the beach by pulling her hand quite harshly. This made her very nervous and was unnecessary. He was also very rude when I questioned his actions. Other than that, the short swim stop and snapshots of the shipwreck were worth it. The beach does get very busy and quite crowded at times. Back on board, food and drinks were basic but welcomed and reasonably priced considering we were a 'captive' audience. The running commentary by our English speaking tour rep was very informative, although difficult to hear over the hubbub at times. On the homeward stretch we enjoyed even more stunning views and were treated to a somewhat cheesy 'pirate show'. All in all, an unforgettable day and one not to be missed.

Fun & very friendly crew, breathtaking views, superb swims, excellent souvlaki, lovely pirate boat with comfy seats, themed choice of music. Take some some sick bags if you struggle with rough sea! Photo memories in option. Loved everything!

Had the best time on this day cruise with my best friend. We managed to see turtles which wasn't on the information but happened to spot them on route to the blue caves. The music and entertainment on our journey was excellent. The bar had a great selection of food and drink on offer but remember to take cash with you. Smugglers cove was magical and the stop offs for swims were amazing too. If you get the chance then walk the plank to cool off. Would definitely recommend and be going again when visiting zante in the future.

We did this all day cruise at the end of July. Zante is beautiful and the cruise takes you round the entire island so you see every bit of the coastline and the beautiful caves which are dotted along its length. The boat was pirate themed and the crew were great; music (of the 80s and 90s mainly) plays for the whole of the journey which gives a nice vibe and at key points of interest the music changes to very loud and rousing tunes. However, once we had rounded the northern tip of the island the sea was quite choppy and the cruise became more of a theme park rollercoaster ride. If you are not a good sailor, check the weather before you book/sail because a number of people did not enjoy large parts of the cruise because of the roughness of the sea. When the crew came round with sick bags we realised that there was still a way to go and it did take the enjoyment out of what had been a very enjoyable cruise up to that point. There were quite a few people looking quite unwell for a few hours. We were sitting on the deck on chairs that were not fixed down, so we were sliding all over the place. We eventually had to go and find seats below deck for safety. There were three swim stops which were very welcome and we saw the wreck at smugglers cove, although could not go ashore as it was too choppy. Stunning beach and bay though! There was food and drink available on board and optional photos and key rings to be purchased. Without the rough seas this would have been a 4/5 star review.

We did this trip on Saturday and so glad we did! It was brilliant from start to finish. The boat is spacious and the selection of food on the board was great, although prices are higher than on the island (obviously). The staff are all very friendly which made the trip even more enjoyable. Now to the trip itself, it was amazing...saw some of the nicest scenery I have ever seen. Swimming next to the blue caves and at shipwreck beach was breathtakingly beautiful, however, shipwreck beach did get very busy with other tours which takes the shine off of it slightly!! I think this trip is great value for money as included our transfer to and from the boat and we were on the boat for 9.30am and didnt get off until after 4pm. I would definately recommend this!!

This was on a pirate ship! Very great staff. Neat music selection. Plenty of space. And great kabob lunch for only 6 euro. Great deal! Would highly recommend.

The main reason we booked this trip was that we wanted to walk on the Smugglers Cove beach, and other trips didn’t mention that in their trip summary. We were picked up from the hotel on time and headed to the port at Zante town. As we got off the minibus we headed towards the Pirate Ship. Out initial thoughts were oh no – a booze cruise. As the trip unfolded we realised that are initial thoughts were wrong and the day turned out to be fantastic. While sailing north, there was regular commentary about the scenery, which is stunning and we were lucky enough to see some dolphins. The captain turned the ship around and did a figure of 8 so that all the travellers could see them. I loved the way the background music changed when we passed the Blue caves and when we arrived at Smugglers cove – very effective. Yes we did walk on the beach and took many photos. That Pirate ship has a bit of a presence about it. On the return journey the ship stopped to allow some more swimming. This was the best trip we had during our stay. It was well organised, informative and fun. Recommend.

This was so much fun! We started in Zante at around 9am (however the price included hotel pick up and ours was at 7.45am as we were staying quite far out from Zante) and cruised around the island, we went to the stunning blue caves and then on to the shipwreck which is just beautiful, the sea is the most amazing shade of blue and we had a swim stop by the shipwreck. At the moment you cannot go onto the beach due to rock falls but that didn’t matter you still get a fantastic view of the ship. We then had 2 more swim stops on the way back to Zante. A beautiful day out. Would definitely recommend this!

Well what can i say absoultely incredible the crew and staff was the best incredible views and scenery on the boat went swimming in the clear beautiful water well my family did i didnt i was to enticed in the scenery and the crew on board im a bit of a day dreamer. Went to the caves but because of the high waves couldnt go inside them we also wasnt allowed to swim once we got near Zackinthos cliffs we was allowed only to see the ship wreak and to go of the boat onto the sand ive never been anywhere like it for the friendliest place it was very picturesque post card place. The crew on board couldnt do enough for passengers and they was really informative and helpful. I think it took about 4 hours overall if i can remember correctly it was some years ago when we came here. I do admit ive not been any where since or before going to that part of Greece where the people are so friendly ive have never before seen such friendly people. From the moment we my family and i arrived in Greece to the moment we left it was beyond amazing experience the one i would never forget. Ive travelled before and since and there has been a very few places ive been to that are welcoming and are friendly then here. It was incredible really incredible
