“Amazing Experience in Beautiful Kefalonia - If I could rate the service of this company and this excursion BEYOND EXCELLENT, I would. It was my husband’s first time in Kefalonia, and I knew we were limited on time but had so many amazing MUSTS to visit. This tour is one of the best I have ever experienced - very well thought out and exciting. The tour guide, Memi, was absolutely exceptional - her knowledge for this island was beyond what we expected, and we learned so many historical occurrences, that it made us fall in love with this island. Each stop was incredible; with just enough time to enjoy the moment, the picturesque views, the culture, the people, the food and the sun. Our favorite stop was Melissani Cave (which by the way, there were NO lines, and we were first on the boat) and the cruise over to our secret snorkeling spot. We will be back next year and are excited to hop on more buses and attend the other excursions this lovely company has to offer.” - Reviewed at 2023-08-01
