Besøg St. Gerasimos kloster, det største og mest betydningsfulde kloster på øen Kefalonia. Dette hellige sted ligger i den maleriske Omala-dalen og har en dyb åndelig og historisk betydning. St. Gerasimos, øens ærede beskyttende helligdom, er æret for sine mirakler og gerninger af venlighed, og hans kloster forbliver en værdsat helligdom for både lokale og besøgende. Pilgrimme flokkes her for at vise deres respekt, beundre den fantastiske byzantinske arkitektur og opleve den rolige atmosfære på dette velsignede sted. Gå ikke glip af muligheden for at udforske den underjordiske hule, hvor den hellige engang levede i dyb bøn og ensomhed.
Grotten af Drogarati er et uundværligt naturunder i Kefalonia, kendt som en af de mest imponerende grotter i Grækenland. Dette betagende underjordiske vidunder kan prale af et stort kammer prydet med spektakulære stalaktitter og stalagmitter, der er dannet over tusinder af år. Det, der gør Drogarati virkelig unikt, er dens enorme hovedhal, kendt for sin bemærkelsesværdige akustik, der ofte sammenlignes med en naturlig koncertsal. Træd ind i dette fascinerende underjordiske rige og oplev den betagende skønhed og geologiske storhed skjult under øens overflade.
Sejl på en rolig bådtur over de skinnende turkisfarvede farvande, hvor sollys danser gennem hulens indgang og skaber et betagende spektakel. Kendt som grotten af nymferne, er dette mystiske sted fyldt med legender og historie, der tilbyder en fortryllende atmosfære, der fanger besøgende. Mens du glider gennem de krystalklare farvande, indtager du det fascinerende spil af lys og skygge og fordyber dig i hulens overjordiske skønhed og tidløse tiltrækningskraft.
Nyd en dejlig pause i den charmerende kystby Fiskardo, en perle i Kefalonia kendt for sin fortryllende skønhed og livlige atmosfære. På trods af sin lille og faldende fiskerflåde bevarer Fiskardo sin autentiske maritime charme, med farverige hus ved vandet, traditionelle fiskerbåde og betagende havudsigt. Denne maleriske landsby er berømt for sin kosmopolitiske og samtidig indbydende atmosfære, hvor besøgende kan nyde friske skaldyr, lokale delikatesser og den afslappede elegance af det græske øliv. Tag i den idylliske omgivelser, mens du nyder en mindeværdig spisning oplevelse ved de sparkende joniske farvande.
På vores rejse tilbage, vil vi gøre et betagende foto stop på den verdensberømte Myrtos Beach, konsekvent rangeret blandt de smukkeste strande på planeten. Med sin fantastiske halvcirkulære kystlinje er denne ikoniske strand indrammet af høje hvide kalkstensklipper, draperet i frodig grøn vegetation, der skaber en virkelig spektakulær kontrast mod de livlige turkisfarvede vande. Da sollyset afspejler de blændende hvide sten, bliver landskabet endnu mere fascinerende, hvilket gør det til det perfekte sted at fange uforglemmelige minder om Kefalonias naturlige skønhed.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed your trip and found it to be great value. Wendy will be delighted to know her knowledge and enthusiasm helped make your experience so memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you on another tour soon!
Let me start this review by saying we are not coach tour people. We prefer to keep ourselves to ourselves and avoid crowds. However, 36 hours Kefalonia was enough to tell us we didn’t fancy taking our lives into our own hands and hiring a car. The roads and drivers are 😳😳 So, after speaking to Georgia in the office in Argostolli we booked the island tour. Georgia was informative, able to answer all our questions and gave us confidence that, despite the above, we would enjoy our day. And we did. Thoroughly. We joined the tour as a group of 4: mum and dad, 18 year old and 16 year old. Maria was an excellent tour guide. Her narrative throughout the time on the coach was knowledgable, interesting and informative. Never boring or simply filling time. Her delivery was charismatic and professional. Our driver was incredibly skilled and we felt safe throughout. The locations we visited were excellent and the itinerary was adapted from what was planned in order to maximise our enjoyment of the day. We got on the coach in Lassi at 09.15 and were dropped back at the hotel at 19.15. A truly packed day that represented excellent value for money. Yes, we would have done it quicker if we had hired a car. Yes, we could have spent longer in some of the locations if we hadn’t been tied to being back at the coach at a certain time. But we did not see these as negatives at all. The only negative is other travellers with no regard for their companions or the schedule. The same people were late back on the coach on every occasion and couldn’t care less. But this was no reflection on the company or the team on the day. Just obnoxious humans with no regard for anyone but themselves. We would highly recommend this company and this trip.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. Reading feedback like yours truly means a lot to our entire team. We are especially delighted that Georgia was able to help you choose the right excursion and make you feel confident before booking. Providing honest advice and helping our guests find the best experience for their holiday is exactly what we strive for. It is also wonderful to hear that Maria's passion, knowledge and engaging storytelling made your journey around Kefalonia so memorable. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to her, as well as to your driver, who will be delighted to know that you felt safe and comfortable throughout the day. We are pleased that you appreciated the flexibility of the itinerary. Whenever possible, our team adjusts the schedule to avoid crowds or long queues, ensuring our guests enjoy the very best experience that Kefalonia has to offer. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the timing of group travel. While we always encourage everyone to respect the schedule out of consideration for fellow guests, we are grateful that you recognised this was beyond our team's control. Thank you once again for your recommendation and for trusting us with your day on our beautiful island. It was our pleasure to welcome your family, and we hope to see you again on your next visit to Kefalonia. Warm regards, The Kefalonia Excursions Team
Quite a lot of steps, entrance tickets for the caves not included, take a camera and wear comfy shoes
Thank you for sharing your feedback! You're absolutely right—comfortable shoes and a camera are great companions for this experience. The walk includes several steps, but the stunning scenery and caves make it well worth the effort. As noted in the tour details, entrance tickets to the caves are not included, allowing guests the flexibility to decide whether they wish to visit. We hope you enjoyed the experience overall and would love to welcome you again in the future!

We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back whenever you're in the Skala area again!
11hr trip in 33° heat. 3.75hrs in total spent off the coach 7.15hrs on the coach. Rep was entertaining but knowledge was lacking. Yes we were last on coach and last off so coach time extended for us.
Thank you for your review. We're sorry the island didn't shrink for the day. Kefalonia is one of the largest Greek islands, which is why this tour is clearly advertised as an 11-hour excursion. The driving time between attractions is simply part of exploring the island, with approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes spent at the stops. Regarding the heat, all of our coaches are fully air-conditioned. While we make sure the coach is comfortable inside, unfortunately we haven't yet found a way to lower the temperature outside, which was around 33°C on the day of your tour. As for being last on and last off the coach, that is the nature of shared transfers and is determined by hotel locations rather than preference. We're pleased you found our representative entertaining and appreciate your comments regarding the commentary. We'll be sure to pass your feedback along. Thank you again for travelling with us.
We had an absolutely fantastic day with the wonderful Wendy and Costas the driver yesterday. Wendy was very knowledgeable. The whole day was wonderful and very well organised - I would highly recommend this tour .
Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear that Nikos made such a positive impression with his friendly and courteous service. It's also wonderful to know you found the van spacious, clean, and comfortable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Thank you for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you had a fantastic experience with us and enjoyed the insights shared by our knowledgeable guide.
