Itinerary
We proceed to Argostoli's "fanari" lighthouse. Governor Napier built Fanari of St. Theodore during the British occupation.its a symbol of Argostoli
Katavothes Sinkholes is one of the world's most amazing geological phenomena, and it has sparked a lot of debate. Katavothres is along the Fanari road from Argostoli.The sea water rushes through some holes in the rocks on the shore and vanishes underground and ends up at Melisani lake cave and Karavomilos
Kefalonia's Drogarati Cave was found 300 years ago and opened to the public in 1963. It was discovered after a big earthquake caused the cave's entrance to collapse. Drogarati is a spectacular cave with amazing stalactite and stalagmite structures. This cave, according to speleologists, is roughly 150 million years old and represents a remarkable geological phenomena. The cave is roughly 60 meters deep and maintains a constant temperature of 18 degrees Celsius. The cave's humidity is high.
Beautiful and fascinating, Melissani Lake is one of the most stunning highlights of Kefalonia. In the Lake Melissani, you buy the ticket (not included in the price). By boat you will be taken around the lake to the closed part of the cave, passing the islet where the excavations had taken place. At the walls, there are Stalactites and flowstones with bizarre shaping, some with a resemblance to dolphins, as the boatman will point out, dolphins play a role in mythology. The lake of Melissani has not yet revealed all its secrets. The water is brackish as many springs supply the lake cave. One of them is the source "Katavothres" which is located on the other side of the island near Argostoli. Part of the cave’s roof collapsed a few thousand years ago due to an earthquake. The daylight falls through this opening, showing the colour of the lake in its deep blue.
Just outside of Sami, in the direction of Agia Efimia, is Karavomilos. A small, charming fishing village with a long, narrow shingle beach and beautiful views of Ithaca. Karavomilos is named after a tiny circular lake near the local water mill. The region is surrounded by rich foliage, which attracts a variety of wildlife such as ducks, swans, and herons. The lake is part of phenomenon of the underground flow of fresh water from Katavothres near Argostoli to the Melissani Lake.
Antisamos Beach is definitely one of Kefalonia's most popular swimming and sunbathing beaches. It located 30.6 kilometers east of Argostoli and close to the port of Sami. we have time to swim here .
Agia Efimia is a scenic beach village 31.5 kilometers northeast of Argostoli Kefalonia's capital, its peaceful and has lots nice taverns and shops. It is located around the natural bay and has a modest and charming harbor where fishing and excursion boats dock.
Divarata is small village above Murtos beach we’re we stop to buy souvenirs and get some refreshments
We drive above Myrtos beach at the famous photo shoot point , we’re we make stunning photo , we have a drone for more unforgettable photos

We had an amazing island tour with Thanos which not rushed so a chilled day enjoying what the beautiful island had to offer. However, we had an awful booking experience with Viator after original booking cancelled then trying to rebook and trying to arranging a pickup from our hotel even though a private tour. It took three agents to secure our booking as calls kept cutting off and 3hrs to resolve.Thankyou agent three you came back to resolve issues and confirm booking. Thanos made it worth it.
Unfortunately, sometimes things can go a bit funny with these things. I am glad you stuck it out, and even more glad that you had such a wonderful experience!
Had an amazing tour in a van for max 7 people accompanied by driver Hussein! Kei nice and friendly man who was ready for everyone! Whether it was to take pictures, s or give information: class! Had a tour all over the island with all the highlights! Ideal to start your holiday in Kefalonia because you can easily visit your favorite places or beaches in your further holiday! They offer different tours and we chose the extensive tour of 6.5 hours! This was a Tuesday offer of 99 for 69 eu p.p.! But it was worth it thick and double! Along the way, water and soft drinks were distributed and we ended with a delicious fresh Greek wine with snack! Friendly and helpful people at this company!
Thank you very much!!!
It was a perfect introduction to Kefalonia. Our tour guide could not have been any better. He was the best. Knowledgeable, fun, incredible driver and so very kind.

Safe and expert guide. Amazing views. Myrtos and Caves tour. Our tour guide took us in a private air conditioned people carrier. He was hospitable, friendly and relaxed. Sami beach is stunning and you can swim/ snorkel in crystal clear waters. Myrtos beach view is voted in the top 20 in the world.
