Charming Zia in the southernmost slope, whose superb location makes it the perfect spot for viewing spectacular sunsets and gazing at the nearby islands of Kalymnos and Pserimos as well as the Turkish coast in the distance.
During the summer the settlement of Zia is bursting with activity from the countless visitors who come to taste local delicacies served in charming traditional taverns, to purchase unique local products and souvenirs and to stroll through the cobblestone alleyways all the way up to its crystal-clear fresh water springs, the most well-known of which is Kefalovrisi.

Zia
This trip is designed to give you all the freedom you wish to discover Zia on your own terms. The minibus will pick you up from your hotel and bring you to its center. You will enjoy discovering the village by yourself, at your own pace, without a guide. Zia is an enchanting little village that lies at the base of Mount Dikeos, the highest mountain of Kos island, that culminates at 846m above sea level. The village has kept its traditional feel and has become one of the major tourist attractions of the island. Here you wiall find many little shops selling local products, arts and crafts. The atmosphere is very relaxed and you will enjoy to sip your drink or dine on a romantic terrace while admiring the most beautiful sunset on Kos. We recommend you to try the famous delicious homemade lemonade served everywhere. You will have approximately 2 and a half hours free time.

Very nice relaxing evening, after all the whole purpose is to watch the sun go down. The view over the sea changes in colour and there are plenty of places to view it from. We had no problem getting a table about half an hour before sundown and enjoyed a beautiful cheese in pastry dish in Olympia 2. If you fancy a drink on a balcony over the valley try the Water Mill which is up hill towards the church

Start with bit disappointment - we book with the company because they offer pick up from hotel . But day before we receive text with pick up point what is something new . One of us is disabled and walking is difficult. On the way have some places with very bumpy road ( very very bumpy) I think driver find funny but wasn’t funny when you have spine problems. Same was on the way back but we was prepared and on our feet . The sunset was beautiful and all you needed is around. We won’t book again regarding bad experiences with travel

Ensure you get to the collection place in good time as the tour operator arrived 10 minutes early. Lovely air conditioned coach and plenty of time to look at the shops, have a meal and enjoy the sunset.

Lovely evening out and 3.5 hours in Zia just right amount of time to wander round shops and get a meal. Lots of places to eat but some with best sunset views get booked up
