An easy explore day!!! - We booked Assos and Fiscardo Island Tour last summer, because we wanted to visit that part of the island without the hassle of driving. Smart choice!!! A very knowledgeable and friendly guide, a very professional and cautious driver and a very unique scenery, made one of our days to this special island, worth to remember!!

Great tour - Was picked up from the hotel in a blacked out Mercedes van. Managed to bag the front seats which was a bonus as all the windows are tinted so you can'ttakephotoson the move. Driver George was lovely. We beat all the crowds for the whole trip. Could have done with it being longer as there is so much to see. Left at 9 back for 4. We could ask to pull over for photos at anytime. Would recommend.

A great day - Really informative tour guide and the driver was excellent. The roads in Kefalonia can feel scary if you're not used to it but the driver was careful and made us feel really safe. We had just the right amount of time in each place. Beautiful scenery. Our teenage boys enjoyed it too.

A Must Do Tour - Duska ,our guide for the day, was fabulous! She gave an excellent commentary throughout about the places we visited, other interesting facts and stories about Kefalonia and was clearly extremely knowledgable. She also made a point of talking to everyone and was very kind to a gentleman with mobility problems. Paris was also an excellent driver and I felt very safe. Assos and Fiscardo are stunning but we would have liked longer here as an hour & an hour and a half were not long enough, it would have been lovely to have had time to walk up to the castle at Assos, but understand the time constraints.I would definitely recommend this trip, the tour operator also responded very promptly to questions and kept us updated before the trip. Excellent value for money.

Great tour - I just want to say how much me and my family enjoyed the excursion
yesterday, we have been to Kefalonia many times and the only places we
have not visited were the ones on the excursion so I’m happy to say
I have seen all of the island!
Duska was lovely and very knowledgable. It was great to listen to her
tell the stories of the island and our driver had amazing driving
skills and made us feel very safe. Great value for money also!
We will definitely recommend and use kefalonia excursions on our
return to Kefalonia

Wonderful Experience - Having not been to Kefalonia before we were unsure of what trip to do. We found Georgia and she explained all the available trips for us. We chose the bus tour which took us to the Melissani caves ,Assos and Fiscardo. Absolutely brilliant. The lady in the coach was very informative about Greek History and Dimitris the coach driver always there to help us off the bus.
This trip made our holiday. Thank you for a wonderful experience from 4 Ladies of a certain age.

Interesting Trip - Excellent tour of parts of the island, including the cave lake in Melissani. Our guide, Duska, kept up an interesting historical narrative throughout the journey which made the long drives between venues seem shorter. Melissani lake was quite beautiful with many of the colours in the cave walls coming out better in the pictures that we took than they looked at first glance. We then stopped in Assos for a coffee break before continuing on to Fiscardo for lunch. Fiscardo is one of the few parts of the island that was not destroyed by the 1953 earthquake and hence has some of the only pre-1953 architecture remaining. After lunch there was a short trip to see Myrtos Beach from way above before returning to Argostoli.

Must sees of Kefalonia in a day - Enjoyed all the stops on this trip.Well thought out trip, enough time at each stop including time for refreshments, shopping, etc,comprehensive information given frequently by our guide Douska, comfortable coach driven by Paris.
We had 2 hours on the bus at the beginning for pick ups and again end of the tour for dropping off, this meant a very long day. However, it was lovely to be picked up from our accommodation and we wouldn't have been able to go on the tour otherwise, so very grateful and excellent value too
