A unique and unforgettable experience. The operator Giorgia is professional, available, and thorough in her explanations. She booked the tour for us at the last minute, finding availability in real-time the evening before for the following morning. The guide spoke perfect English and was able to narrate and explain to us in great detail throughout the day. Without a doubt, a tour to recommend to other visitors.

We were treated like a family by George and Rosa and their passion for the place they come from Kefalonia helps you better understand the place be its topogrpahy, people, food and warmth. They always had a smile on their face and ensured we visit places where my in laws could travel and enjoy along with some good spots for the my teenager, wife and myself. With George had a lovely chat about Indian food and spices and how he loved them. Rosa ensured at Fiskardo we got some Indian cuisine ( like Chicken Tikka Curry) and she was our official photographer. They were very well informed about our choices and loved their passion about their island . We visited Assos, Fiskardo, Melassini Caves to list a few and a relaxed and fun trip. I would definitely recommend them for any of the full day tours and when we return again will book with them

We had an excellent day out on this tour visiting a monastery, Drogarati & Melissani caves, went to a winery to taste 4 local wines, then we went to the fishing village of Fisccasdo, where we had lunch at Irida restaurant. We had Kelanlonian Pie & Sea Bream washed down with Mythos beer. On the way back we visited from a birds eye View Myrtos beach rated top 10 in world beaches. Our tour, Guide Maria, who has come back to Kefalonia from Austalia, was excellent, giving us all the history & general info she was very informative. I would highly recommend this tour. We had an excellent day out

My partner and 14 year old and I recently went on this island tour with Kefalonia Excursions and I got to say not only was it value for money but the trip was excellent especially with our tour guide Catalina who not only was professional and knowledgeable but very pleasant and funny at times. The monastery and winery were fantastic even though we did get a little bit tipsy followed by the caves and a whistle stop your at a beautiful but busy village for lunch, 5 star and i would certainly go again.
Thank you so much for your five stars!! We truly hope to see you again on one of our future excursions!!
