Culture, history, tradition…. A walk through the city of Zakynthos the capital of the island which the Venetians called ‘Fior di Levante’
Our tour takes you on a journey through the capital of Zakynthos, once referred to as "Fior di Levante" (Flower of the East) by the Venetians in the 16th century, celebrating its natural beauty. A key stop is the museum and mausoleum of Solomos and Kalvos, where you'll discover a fascinating collection of local art and handicrafts, including 18th and 19th-century paintings, carved pottery, sculptures, ancient musical instruments, clothing, and weapons from noble families. This museum is a significant cultural landmark, appreciated by both Greeks and international visitors.
No tour of Zakynthos would be complete without a visit to the oldest mandolato (nougat) workshop in the city. Mandolato and pasteli are beloved local treats made from honey, eggs, sugar, and almonds, and are offered on special occasions throughout the island's life.
As we continue, we'll stroll along the bustling Alexandrou Roma Street, a vibrant pedestrian avenue lined with shops, boutiques, and cozy cafes where locals gather to enjoy everyday moments. This street has preserved its charming arcades, which existed before the earthquake, designed to shield against the rainy climate and hot summer sun, making it an architectural gem of Zakynthos. Feel free to explore the shops and perhaps find a special memento to remember your visit.
Throughout the tour, your knowledgeable guide will share stories about the town's rich history, cultural nuances, and insider tips on the best spots to explore. This private walking tour of Zante Town offers the perfect blend of discovery, relaxation, and culinary delights, ensuring lasting memories of your time on this beautiful Greek island.
