Reviews Paleokastritsa Monastery
“Firstly we were messed around with the trip day. We'd booked for the Wednesday and planned our week around it and the trip was changed to Thursday. No apology basically go or cancel! The trip was rushed spending hardly any time at the monastery before it closed or the palace! However the saving grace was Sofia! She was lovely, friendly and very informative about the island.”
“It was enjoyable to find out the culture of the island and visit many different places”
“Way to much crowded in - spent 7+ hours on the coach for about 2hrs 45minutes free time. Distillery is a joke. Watching a video? Basically a scam as you see nothing - you can try the products but it's sold to you that you are going to see the production. Might aswell cancel the palace without the inside, the gardens aren't that impressive. And you get 20minutes free time after a forced listening tour. May I add the guide and driver were superb, however the experience itself is very mislead”
