What to expect

Leave the beach behind and head for the hills to the mountain village of Zia for the evening. Sitting high in pine-forested Mount Dikaios, it's bagged itself gorgeous views of the island's North coast and across the Aegean to Turkey. And from up here, the sunsets are nothing short of spectacular.

Once you're dropped off, you'll have plenty of free time to wander around and admire the scenery. Bring your camera and find yourself the best view point as the sun sinks behind the hills. And bag some locally made goodies like a lace tablecloths or some olive oil or sticky honey in the souvenir shops and roadside stalls.

You could check out the village's Byzantine church as well. Later, as darkness falls, pull up a pew in one of Zias tavernas for dinner. Some have rooftop terraces where you can soak up the view, while you eat dinner, just as the stars come out.

    Man wird abgeholt und wird nach Zia gefahren. Ein Dorf mit sehr wenigen Einwohnern. Da sind Händler die was verkaufen, aber da ist man in wenigen durch gelaufen und man muss fast 4,5 h dort verbringen und ist dort gezwungen was zu Essen. Wenn die Rückfahrt ist, kann man in seinem Hotel nichts mehr Essen. Also eine reine Fahrt um für die Leute dort Geschäfte zu machen.

    Der Tranfer war gut orgenisiert. Leider ist es nicht ersichtlich, wann der Rüchtransport stattfindet. Wir hatten z.B. 4 h in Zia Zeit, was ich persönlich für zu lange halte. Wir bekamen erst bei Ankuft die Auskunft darüber, wann es wieder zurückgeht ins Hotel. Ein weiterer Negativpunkt war, dass der Fahrer gesagt hat Rückfahrt ist um 21.00 Uhr. Er fuhr aber schon um 20.50 los obwohl noch 2 Leute gefehlt haben.. das fand ich bissle frech. Ansonsten ist Zia ein Muss wenn man die Insel besucht.

    Sehr touristisch, ähnlich wie auf einem Rummel. Landschaftlich sehr schön. 4 Stunden waren etwas zu lang

    Die kleine Dorf ist sicherlich hübsch und einen Besuch wert. Es war uns allerdings maßlos zu überfüllt. Außerhalb der kleinen Gasse musste man ständig darauf achten, nicht von einem Bus oder Auto überfahren zu werden. Die Tavernen waren allerdings sehr authentisch und nett.

    In meinen Augen ist diese Tour völlig überbewertet und unnötig. Sonnenuntergänge sind von jedem anderen Ort ähnlich schön. Und vor allem ruhiger zu erleben.Schlimm, dass der Massentourismus hier soo deutlich zu sehen ist, bzw. einem vor Augen gehalten wird, was er bedeutet. Die Händler und Verkaufsstände bieten Touristen-Ramsch und sind abhängig von den Reisegesellschaften die ein ganzes Dorf in den Ruin stürzen können, sollten sie die Tour nicht mehr anbieten. Das ist eine lose-lose Situation!
