5 out of 5 Rating. - Really cozy day trip with the bus. Covers most of the famous attractions on the island. The tour guide is also very friendly and gives a lot of history information about Kefalonia. Would recommend this trip if you have one day to spare.

Excellent trip - Did kefalonia island tour. Saw fiscali, Melissa caves, drogarti caves, winery, monastery and a beach. Monastery you need to cover up shoikdres and legs and be modest. They do provide wraps but just be prepared. Once inside the opulence is breathtaking. The winery tasting was well organised and well run. Fabulous host. The drogarti caves is for walkers with no knee issues as there are about 120 steps, however they are covered so not as slipy as you would expect and well worth the visit. Melisani caves was a beautiful boat ride, which didn't lose any if its beauty by it being a group tour.then went to fiscal, Had food and some quaint but expensive shops. It was referred to as a more relaxed San tropez. The beach was just a photo shoot from the top of the cliffs, however we had seen just as beautiful beaches already on the trip. The trip lasted from 9am and we got back at 6pm so a full day for 35 euros. Well worth the trip, the host was great and spoke several languages and was very well organised. Couldn't fault it. If you get the chance book it and I couldn't complain about the organisation or what was included. Thank you very much for a delightful (tiring) day.

Great tour showing you a lot of the island - The best tour we have done on holiday! It is a full day , we were picked up 9 30 at argostoli port and got back after 5 30, but this could be later if there are larger queues at the caves I suspect. A real mix of activities from seeing the saints church to chilling by the yachts in fiskardo. Duska, the tour guide was friendly, genuine and very efficient. We learned so much about kefalonia from her. Never felt like we were herded sheep! Honestly, do this tour.

A must for a taste of Kefalonia - This is one of the best trips I have ever done from the pick up by private car, being greeted with a bottle of water and a very lnowledgable guide. First stop was the Monestry which is worth a visit but dress respectfully. The Nun just inside the door freaked me out a little bit. I thought she was a dummy dressed up until she moved then thought how ill and sad she looked. The wine tasting was very enjoyable you get to taste 4 wines and learn a lot. Drogati cave is a sight to behold be warned the steps are a killer though but worth it. Melissani lake just speaks for itself stunning. Fiskado is a beautiful little village nice food and try the frozen yogurt. All in all was struck with how beautiful Kefalonia is. Loved how green is was with bright flashes of pinks, purples and white flowers.

A great day of discovery! - This tour was a great way to see Kefalonia, made even better by our knowldgeable & likeable tour guide, Duska. We learnt so much about the island, which started with a visit to the largest monastery, which was moving and affective. Next to a wine tasting experience from which we took a large haul. The highlight of the two caves was a boat trip on a lake within the cave. Onto Fiskardo for lunch, the only village to survive the 1953 earthquake. Beautiful houses and views, the village has become popular with the jet set. Do walk to the beach at the end of the waterfront. On the way back a stop to take photos of Myrtos beach. This company was professional and a good communicator for pick up arrangements. Arriving back at our hotel we realised we had left our wines on the bus. One quick phone call and Nikki arranged for them to be dropped off at the hotel the next morning. What great service! The coach was very comfortable and safely driven, an important consideration on greek roads. All those on board the coach expressed their delight on such a good journey of discovery. We look forward to our trip to Zante next week.
