kato Zakros, Crete

Family business is the only kind of business you will find in Kato Zakros. Taverns, rooms, studios or apartments for rent are operated by family members. And even though these people have not any specific education in tourism, they are offering their services on a professional as well as humanly approachable way.

You will always find people more than willing to help you with anything that you might need. Be ready to accept their generosity in the taverns, the hot pie made by mama’s hands, the little basket with local fruits or vegetables from the next door garden and the hot cheese pies fried in the local olive oil, (the best in the world).

The satisfaction of the guests became some times subject of competition between the owners who are trying their best just to be proud that they are offering the best hospitality.

Even though you should characterize them amateur, you will miss nothing that any professional should offer you.

You will find professionalism in its purest amateur edition.
