Nefis Travel Timeline

Media that have featured Nefis Travel over the years

It was in 2008 that the vocal singer, and storytelling guide, Jackie Boots, had a wish and vision. After many years working for major tour companies she wanted to offer different types of tours, more personal, with smaller groups. Tours that were also eco friendly, where visitors could interact with the locals and receive the highest costumer service. Jackie combined her wealth of experience as a tour guide with her passion for Greek culture, theatre, music and mythology to create distinctive, quality, VIP private and group tours. Encouraged by the support of their satisfied guests and the wonderful feedback over the years, Nefis Travel made it through the Greek crisis and is still going strong and even more popular with visitors!

Jackie created a professional, passionate and enthusiastic team of people around her and became the leading tour company on Zakynthos, which offers not only an experience of the traditional Zakynthian culture, history and way of life but also avoids the crowds with outstanding excursions. This unique Award winning concept, framed with a personal touch and a high customer service, caught the eye of Magazines, News papers, Travel Magazines, TV Companies and its celebrities, Radio stations in Greece and Holland, and Social Media influencers. We are extremely proud of our achievements and herewith present you a timeline of Media that have featured Nefis Travel over the years.
