Itinerary
Argostoli Harbor is one of the best places in Kefalonia to spot wild loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). These majestic creatures can be seen swimming near the fishing boats, attracted by the morning fish market. A rare and unforgettable experience, offering a close look at one of Kefalonia’s most iconic marine species in their natural habitat.
Melissani Cave Lake is a breathtaking natural wonder located 2 km northwest of the town of Sami and is a must-see destination of Kefalonia. Due to an earthquake happened a few thousand years ago, a part of the roof has collapsed creating a hole that allows sunlight to filter through and illuminate the crystal-clear turquoise waters of the lake. The result is a stunning sight that is truly awe-inspiring. Visitors can explore the lake by taking a boat tour that takes them through the cave and over the tranquil waters of the lake. The tour guides provide interesting information about the history and geology of the area, making for a fascinating and educational experience. One of the most striking features of Melissani is the unique color of the water, which changes throughout the day depending on the angle of the sun.
Myrtos is the most famous beach in Kefalonia and it is located on the northwestern coast of the island. Apart of its natural beauty, Myrtos gained a lot of its popularity because of the scenes from the Hollywood film "Captain Corelli's Mandolin". The beach features a long stretch of white pebble sand that slopes gently into the crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea. The surrounding cliffs and hillsides are covered in lush greenery, making for a picturesque backdrop. The view of Myrtos at the famous photo-stop above the beach is a memory that will be nice to remember so use your camera and capture the moment.
Vouti Beach is a stunning, secluded cove on Kefalonia’s western coast, known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and peaceful atmosphere. Surrounded by cliffs and lush nature, it offers soft golden sand, smooth pebbles, and shallow waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling. A small beach bar provides refreshments, umbrella and sunbed sets, making it an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the breathtaking Ionian views. A true hidden gem for nature lovers and those seeking tranquility.

Shocking, sooooo loud! The air horns, the announcements and engine noise is beyond loud!!!! How the locals, in the beautiful ports visited, put up with it. Captain Kocktoss, is aragont and , not a happy worker... Adiós omega!
Hahahaha I am very sorry for your bad experience… I might have an idea of who you are referring to but I’m not the one, I just do Private Tours and Transfers in Kefalonia. Great picture by the way👍
Wonderful tour with George. He showed us all over the island of Kefalonia. He talked about the island, history, food, beaches, and more. We visited quite a few places and beaches. Cost was very affordable and worth it. Tour was approx 6-7hrs.
Fantastic tour of the island. George was polite, knowledgeable and flexible. Stunning views with a great mix of nature, beaches and seaside towns. Highly recommend!
Wonderful time with George, he is so sweet, nice and informative and truly made our day absolutely perfect! We saw a great deal of the middle and southern sides of the island of Kefalonia while on our tour! Beautiful picture spots and interring locations, a great starting point to get an idea more areas to explore if you’re going to be in Kefalonia for a few days and have a car.
This was an amazing tour! Our guide George was very friendly and knowledgeable about all of the areas we visited. It was a perfect blend of site seeing and relaxing at the beach at the end of the tour.
We had an amazing time on this private tour of Kefalonia. Our guide Georgios was a lovely and accommodating host who was very knowledgeable about the island and made the trip very special. He was also an exceptional driver and we felt we were in very safe hands! It was great seeing the turtles so close in the harbour, and the water in Melisani cave was incredibly blue! We then spent 2 hours at Vouti beach which was gorgeous and peaceful. We’d definitely recommend this trip!
