The book combines the best features of Sunflower's 'Landscapes' walking and car touring guides with all the detail you would expect in a hefty general guide. ---------------- Coverage includes: getting there and getting about; recommended accommodation and restaurants; practicalities A-Z; history; 22 main walks with many variations, all with both hand-drawn and GPS-compatible maps; fold-out GPS-compatible island map; copious notes on geology, flora and fauna (all illustrated).----------------- Although this is a general guide to the island, there is special emphasis on the countryside and the National Marine Park (where the author works for the protection of sea turtles), about which there is copious information. Even non-walkers will appreciate the walking sections: while the walk descriptions themselves are brief, each walk is followed by two facing pages focussing on the island's geology, habitats, agriculture, flora and wildlife - all illustrated.- --------------- 4 car tours (with accompanying area maps); 22 walks, each with several variations and charmingly 'mapped out' with the author's own 3D drawings and showing GPS waypoints; 50 pages of nature notes (all illustrated), 2 GPS-compatible touring/walking maps covering the whole island; plan of Zakynthos Town; downloadable GPS waypoints and intermediate coordinates. Free online update service with specific route change information on the publisher's website, maintained daily.--------------- I searched everywhere. On the Internet, in libraries, in every bookstore that I could find, but although I found a lot of general guides on the Greek islands, they could only provide a small description of [Zakynthos] and all the common tourist attractions - water park, navaggio, carreta turtles, etc. Having the experience of Paris, when doing some walking tours in the old town was the best part of our trip, we searched for the same thing for Zakynthos, but weren't really finding anything. When this book opened its pages to us, it was all we are looking for, and even more. I think one of the best things about the book is that the author, Gail Schofield, lives there and knows the surrounding and also that she was a zoology student, so has insights on all the plants and animals that live on the island. A book on culture and architecture is a marvel in large cities, but on islands like Zakynthos, where the main attraction is its savageness, you need to know everything about the environment, beaches and life in general. I skimmed the book preparing for our trip, and I found interesting the fact that it has hand-drawn maps of every walking tour, a thing that I haven't encountered that frequently in travel books. The illustrations of plants and animals are also high quality but the best part of the book is the folding map at the end which is by far the most complete map I have found to date. It has all the walking tours and car tours on it so you don't have to struggle planning them by yourself and if you go on the official site you can also download the GPS waypoints for the walking tours (that of course if you're not to lazy to enter them yourself from the end of the book). I highly recommend this book to anyone visiting Zakynthos. (RP, desertcart) Review: Beautiful book - exactly what I wanted, information on the flora, fauna, history, culture, some tourist bits (accommodation and restaraunts) but not over the top, like some more well known publishers Review: Where the best views can be found and great nuggets of interesting info. - This was a useful little book to direct us to some interesting places in our hire car and on foot. I found it all very accurate in terms of clear maps and info. The only time it was incorrect was in stating there was no charge to enter the vemetian fortress at Bochali. Its now 4 euros per person. Excellent guide book ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 1,507,358 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 2,838 in Hiking & Walking Holidays 9,619 in Travel Atlases & Maps | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 55 Reviews | ## Images ![Zakynthos: Complete Guide with Walks (Sunflower Complete) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fwsGSBlKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful book *by A***R on 14 April 2025* exactly what I wanted, information on the flora, fauna, history, culture, some tourist bits (accommodation and restaraunts) but not over the top, like some more well known publishers ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Where the best views can be found and great nuggets of interesting info. *by D***W on 9 July 2019* This was a useful little book to direct us to some interesting places in our hire car and on foot.

Excellent guide book ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Guide *by F***N on 9 June 2009* I spent ages trying to find a decent guide to Zante (Zakynthos) as most of them were just for the Greek Islands or Ionian Islands. This book is one of the best guides I have purchased, as it is full of interesting information and gives tours of the island, whether you are on foot or driving around. The photos are excellent quality too. I would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a book about this beautiful island --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/64298321-zakynthos-complete-guide-with-walks-sunflower-complete](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/64298321-zakynthos-complete-guide-with-walks-sunflower-complete) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
