Excellent tour!! - Kathrine was our very professional, knowledgeable, fun tour guide. We enjoyed the caves and bus ride around the islands, by our safe driver. Boat in cave was exceptional! We would recommend this tour to anyone. And 1/2 the price of our cruise ship tour!

Great tour of the island and guide - Maria was great explaining the history of the island as we traveled around to the Caves and Lake. We saw the wonderful and picturesque sights of the island of Argostoli. I’d recommend this tour.

Unforgettable experience. - Great experience with Avalon Travel if you want to take a couple of hours hike. They picked us up directly from the port where the cruise docked and from there we went to the cave of Drogarati and then to Lake Melissani. We also saw from above the wonderful beach of Myrtos. Our guide Maria was excellent, spoke very good Italian and was very helpful with any questions about the place. Definitely an experience to be redone.

Not to be missed. - Heads up the Drogarati Cave has lots of steps if you go down you have to come back up. Nonetheless it was amazing. Melissani Lake is easier. Once in the boat the experience is stunning.

The caves where well... - The caves where well worth the 40 min wait to see. Our guides where wonderful and stood in line for us so we could sit in the shade. Be aware it is a very steep badly lit walk down to the cave. The lake is well a lake!

Worth it if you have time - Visiting the lake/ cave was a nice half trip trip. Both locations are quick visits, so no need to block out an entire day for this. The lake is beautiful, but keep in mind it's very small and the boat ride lasts about 5 minutes. Walking around the cave is self-paced, but again won't take too long. Access to the cave involves a lot of steps which could be problematic for those with mobility issues. Overall, I'd suggest checking these sites out if you have time while in Kefalonia.
