Melissanis grotta i Kefalonia ligger strax utanför Sami. Det är en av de mest dramatiska platserna för turister att besöka i Grekland. Det finns en vacker sjö inne i grottan som har vackra träd och skogar som omger den. Själva grottan är B-formad. Taket på en av salarna grävde ner sig för århundraden sedan och släppte in vackert solljus. Sjöns djup är 20 till 30 meter. Efter en kort transfertid har du chansen att ta en båttur på sjön. Detta är ett geografiskt fenomen. Det finns cirka 7 roddbåtar som tar cirka 10 personer i varje. Guiderna förklarar hur sjön bildades.
Missa inte chansen att besöka sevärdheterna som du måste se i Kefalonia. Drogarati-grottan i Kefalonia upptäcktes för 300 år sedan och öppnades för allmänheten 1963. Den upptäcktes när en kraftig jordbävning orsakade en kollaps som avslöjade grottans ingång. Drogarati är en imponerande grotta med anmärkningsvärda formationer av stalaktiter och stalagmiter. Speleologer säger att denna grotta är cirka 150 miljoner år gammal och utgör ett sällsynt geologiskt fenomen. Observera att det är ca 150 trappsteg ner i grottan. Ledstänger har monterats. Men en del av grottgolvet är lite ojämnt och kan ibland vara hala.
Myrtos Beach är en av de mest populära attraktionerna i Kefalonia. Det ligger 29 km norr om Argostoli, i ett charmigt område omgivet av vackra kullar. Myrtos-stranden har fått världsrykte. Den har blivit framröstad som bästa stranden i Grekland många gånger!
Koutavos-lagunen är ett utmärkt naturreservat för vilda djur, inklusive Caretta Caretta-sköldpaddan och annat fågelliv. Det ligger nära huvudet av Argostoli Bay. Stadens största park är en skuggig skog av eukalyptus och tallar som kan nås genom att gå eller cykla längs den breda leden som runt lagunen från hamnfronten. Tills Drepanobron byggdes 1813 för att underlätta tillgången till Argostoli från bosättningarna på andra sidan bukten, var lagunen en nästan oframkomlig myr fylld av myggor och malaria. En liten holme i lagunens centrum är förbjudet för besökare eftersom den fungerar som ett häckande och utfodringsområde för sjöfåglar. Koutavos-lagunen ligger nära mynningen av Argostolibukten.

Very accommodating in every way! Our experience was positive and personal to our needs and requests. Loved every minute of this tour.
Our tour in Cephalonia with Giota was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She had incredible energy, was warm and welcoming, and met us right in front of the terminal as soon as we got off the cruise, which made everything feel so easy and well organized. Without her, our experience in Cephalonia and the whole tour would not have been nearly as enjoyable. Her enthusiasm and local knowledge truly made the day special. We especially loved Myrtos Beach — what an absolutely beautiful and breathtaking place. The views were unforgettable. Melissani Cave is also an absolute must-do for anyone visiting Cephalonia. It was one of the highlights of our trip. A huge thank you to Giota, who put soul into her job for making our visit so memorable. Highly recommended!
Thank you very much! We enjoyed the day also! We hope to see you again!!!
Great day trip to Half Day Melissani Lake and Drogarati Cave Tour with Myrtos Swim with Giota, she's special, funny, well iinformed, generous (thanks for the wine and snaks and joy while car battery was off). Kefalonia is wonderful especially when travelling with lovely people. Definitely recomend this trip with Giota and any other with Thalassa Agency, they are so kind, helpful and welcoming people. Big hugs, Elena
Thank you very much!! Hope to see you again!!
Transportation was provided in a comfortable van which was air conditioned. The excursion included a lot of driving and a lot of waiting in line. The one down side was that we were expecting our tour guide to give us somewhat of a tour in between sights. He didn’t speak any English and so there wasn’t any kind of “tour”.
This is just a car ride to the places, dropoff and pickup when finished - the driver waits. If you are more than a single person, it's much better to hire a private car. It's not a guided tour (no history, background, description). Our driver was a sweetheart but didn't speak English. Made the most of it but would
We are sorry if we did not meet your expectations. The Tour we have MYrtos and caves swimming is a unique tour because we combined swimming at one of the difficult beaches to approach for swimming in kefalonia .. so our priority is for you to see all the site scenes and to swim at the beautiful beach of Myrtos.. now sometimes due to cruise ships and many people arriving sometimes the drivers will not have time to explain everything our priority is for you to see the island gems and swim and to return back safely and I think that’s what’s happened. Thank you very much!
Thanos was an amazing tour guide who was very mindful and knowledgeable about all of the locations visited. He also made sure to avoid the long line at Melissani which was extremely helpful. All of the staff was very accommodating and flexible which I greatly appreciate.
Thank you for your beautiful words! Hope to see you again..!
Arriving at the Argostoli port on Aug 6 at 10:20am for a 10:30am scheduled excursion, we were told to go to the Thalassa office and were told to wait only to depart over 40 mins late! Our tour guide was only able to speak broken english. We started with Drogarati Cave which was impressive. We then drove to Melissani Lake only to find a 2+ hour waiting line. Given our back-to-cruise-port time and the tour length, the driver suggested we skip it and go straight to Myrtos. We asked about compensation for missing 1/3 of our tour and because of his broken english, our driver called and had me speak with the Thalassa office where they offered "there is nothing we can do about it...just go to the beach". Even with skipping the lake, we only had 45 mins for the swim on a VERY rocky (but beautiful) beach...so it was doubtful we could have done all stops even if there had been no waiting line at the lake due to our late departure. We felt the tour company could have offered an english speaking guide, could have departed on time, could have done better planning regarding realistic time mgmt of sites visited, could have divulged that Myrtos beach was rocky and really required surf shoes to swim, and they could have compensated us for missing over 1/3 of our excursion due to lines and a late departure! While the sites we were able to see were impressive, I wouldn't recommend working with this company to visit them!!!!!!!
The tour exceeded our expectations, partly down to our fantastic tour guide Thanos who provided useful information, humour and even helped us to book a gluten free meal in a restaurant for the following day. He went above and beyond. Each site was busy and you only needed about 15-20 min in the caves and lagoon. The beach was 1hr which was plenty in the heat. We also had a private mini van to ourselves as a family of 8 including grandparents. The lagoon and caves are a must but make sure you don’t arrive too early or too late.
Thank you very much! We hope to see you again!!
We did the first thing we did was the plain cave. LOTS of steps there too. We didn't do the cave of the nymphs because of the 1.5 hour wait. We did get an hour at the beach which was beautiful. We drove about half the time and left late. We then had to ask for the water. I'd do just the beach.
This was one of the worst excursions I have been on during a cruise, and I have been on many. We were 45 minutes late leaving because we were waiting on 2 people, we were only given 20 minutes to walk up and down the steps to the cavern, we didn't even get to go to the cave because the wait was over 2 hours, we only got a little over 45 minutes to see/swim at the beach, and we never saw or stopped at the village we were supposed to do so shopping for souvenirs was out as well. While nice, our driver spoke so English so it was a silent ride. We are used to someone telling us about the area or things we pass so that we can learn about things, but that didn't happen. Overall I would be hard pressed to recommend this tour to anyone. 😒
