Katuruokaa, kulkueita ja soittokuntia – Pyhän Dionysioksen festivaali on vuoden suurin tapahtuma Zakynthoksella, ja sinä pääset osallistumaan iltaan paraatipaikalta. Seuraa hienoimpiin asuihin pukeutuneen papiston kulkuetta, kunnes on aika jatkaa iltaa paikallisten tapaan festivaalikojuilla. Maria, yksi paikallisppaistamme, kertoo: "Pyhän suojelijamme Dionysoksen juhla on tärkein tapahtuma jokaisen zakynthoslaisen kalenterissa. Suosikkikohtani on nähdä kaupunki juhlahumussaan, kun kuljemme basaarin läpi."

Koko saaren väestö juhlii suojeluspyhimystään 24. elokuuta, ja sinulla on mahdollisuus osallistua tähän vuoden kohokohtaan. Seuraa ensin kulkuetta, minkä jälkeen voit suunnata ruokakojuille ja basaariin. Maria kertoo: "Tarjolla on paljon paikallisia herkkuja, kuten paahdettuja kastanjoita ja suosikkiani loukoumadesia – tyypillinen kreikkalainen munkki, joka on kastettu hunajaan."

Nauti tunnelmasta ja ota viimeiset kuvat illasta, kun ilotulitus valaisee taivaan, ennen kuin bussi vie sinut takaisin hotelliin.

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
