Six-hour private tour
If you wish
to explore the beautiful island of Kefalonia but wish to spend the day only
with company of your choice, we can tailor make any of our private tours to
suit you. We have vehicles to suit any number of passengers, smart professional
drivers and very knowledgeable local guides who will ensure that you have a
wonderful day.
With our six-hour
tour you will have the chance to experience the way of life here on Kefalonia,
see many of the islands main attractions and have the chance to experience the
laid back, relaxed feel that is typical of the island. The itinerary we suggest
is described below, however with all private tours the itineraries are
completely flexible as we will tailor make the day to suit you. We can start
and finish the tour from any destination on the island.
We would
collect you from the port and start the day with a visit to the Drogarati Caves,
which are a vast underground cave formation with many stalagmites and stalactites
that have developed over thousands of years. From there we will journey on to
the Melissani Lake. Perhaps the most visited sight of Kefalonia the Melissani
Lake is under the ground but has a huge opening to the outside world directly
above the water, allowing the sunlight to turn the water the most incredible
shade of blue. You will be taken around the lake on a small boat by one of the
locals of the area who will explain to you the history as they row you around
this magnificent sight.
The next
stop of the day will be at the beautiful Myrtos Beach, which brings many
visitors to the island every year to swim in the turquoise waters. You will
have time on the beach for sunbathing and swimming, so don’t forget your
swimsuit! When you are completely relaxed and used to the slow-paced way of
life here on Kefalonia, we will take you to visit Assos. This idyllic
traditional fishing village is the perfect place to take time to enjoy a coffee
or lunch on the waterfront and soak up the charming atmosphere. Some say that
this is the most picturesque place on the island, so why not visit and see for
yourself?!
From Assos
we will take you back to the port, stopping above Myrtos Beach to see the beach
from a different angle and take many spectacular photographs from the best
viewpoint possible. We guarantee that at the end of the tour you will be sure
to wish to return to Kefalonia in order to see more of what this wonderful
island has to offer and relive the memories from this day.
