Comida callejera, animadas procesiones, fuegos artificiales y bandas de música: la fiesta de San Dennis es el mayor acontecimiento del año en Zante. Y podrá disfrutar de las mejores vistas en esta excursión nocturna. Contemple la procesión de los sacerdotes ataviados con sus mejores galas y mézclese con los lugareños en el bazar de la fiesta. María, una de nuestras guías locales, afirma: "La celebración de nuestro patrón, San Dennis -conocido localmente como Dionisio-, es el acontecimiento más importante en la agenda de todo zakintio. Lo que más me gusta es ver la ciudad en todo su esplendor festivo mientras recorremos el bazar".

Para conmemorar a la patrona de la isla, todo Zante sale de fiesta el 24 de agosto. Podrá unirse a los festejos dirigiéndose a la ciudad de Zante a última hora de la tarde. Ocupa tu lugar entre la multitud para ver primero la procesión, antes de tener la oportunidad de mezclarte con los lugareños en los puestos de comida y el bazar. María nos cuenta: "Habrá un montón de delicias locales, como dulces tradicionales, castañas asadas y mi favorito: loukoumades, un típico donut griego bañado en miel".

Empápate del ambiente y saca las últimas fotos de la noche mientras los fuegos artificiales iluminan el cielo antes de que el autobús te lleve de vuelta a tu hotel.

I undertook this trip with a young family. There was a walk from the coach into town where the festival took place. There was no pavement and heading kids along a road with traffic and other pedestrians on was not ideal. When we reached the centre the crowds were much larger than expected so we could see very little. We were told to use loos at restaurants., which had no water and the public loos were vile. We returned to the coach, but we had a great time waiting in a bar enjoying fireworks.

The actual festival was great but the trip advertised and provided by TUI was very disappointing. Advertised as a Tour and with 2 TUI tour guides I expected just that! We were picked up and driven to Zakinthos and dropped off. The TUI tour guide read detail of the festival from her notes, she couldn't pronounce half of the details but told us about 10 times we would be picked up at 11pm. There was NO tour and they were not tour guides! Local bus cost €2 each, this cost €20 each. Not worth it.

Pick up both ways was on time. Guide give good background on festival on bus en route. Walk route to festival was clear and easy to follow on return. Festival itself was interesting and fireworks were fantastic. Market was a bit patchy mostly fake goods and animals in cages which did not appear to be in healthy condition. Only problem was reps lost passenger list for return journey which caused a short delay checking numbers. Luckily driver had a printed copy which was used as a register

Tour guide took us to the church then disappeared,no mention of where to find them in case of difficulties. Everywhere we went was o lying open for food not just drinks,found a little bar where we could get a drink and all the tui staff were there. On return to the coach the map and QR code was wrong location.

The festival it’s self was absolutely amazing and the fire work display was out of this world but TUIs side of this was less than satisfactory the reps raced off left us with no information other than a piece of paper and a bus a number they didn’t show us where to find the the TUI reps and information on what was going on and where things was non-existent very overwhelming over all, not what I expected/was sold

Reps made us walk on own in dark
