Overall it was a fabulous day and good value for money . Our guide was informative and told us lots of interesting stories about Kefalonia's past and present . Now for the negatives . You do spend a lot of time on the bus .Not enough time in asos the trip I booked said we would have I hour at Myrtas Beach which wasn't the case we only stopped by the viewing platform for photos. At the beginning of the trip our guide told us we would be back around 5pm . Midway through she took to the Mic to inform us we would be stopping off in Argostoli at the end for free food and wine tasting . This was not on the schedule not what I wanted as it was a gimmick anyway .We had been in Argostoli a day earlier and seen the shop advertising free tastings for everyone . This became even more annoying as on arrival in Argostoli the heavens opened and it was pouring down with heavy rain. So we got back to our accommodation much later than planned and soaked through .This was a shame as we had had a great day up until that point.
Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the overall day and appreciated the guide’s knowledge and the value for money.

Well organised. Wendy the tour guide was excellent. Well explained. Not rushed. Lots of good stories
Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased to hear you enjoyed the tour and found it well organised and relaxed. Wendy will be delighted to know her storytelling and explanations made the experience even more special for you. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again on another adventure soon!
This was such a well organised and well communicated experience. They kindly agreed to pick us up from a more convenient location which we really appreciated. Regarding the day tour itself - the tour guid (Memi) was a lovely lady who was so knowledgeable and entertaining. Our group of 10 friends on a hen weekend from the UK, really enjoyed seeing other parts of the island which offered the most breathtaking vistas. We went to Melissani caves which was well worth a visit before heading on to Assos. Although there wasn't a great deal open due to it being the very start of the summer season, we still enjoyed wandering through the village around the harbour, photographing many of the gorgeous colourful houses with their flowers and foliage, and trying a slice of baklava and a tiramisu iced coffee from a delightful bakery / cafe. By the time we got to Fiskardo, we had just about enough time to grab a quick lunch from Roulas Grill House where the service was superb and the food was fresh and delicious. We took a different route back to where we were staying Skala so we got to see and learn even more about this beautiful island and stopped to view the stunning turquoise water at Myrtos beach . All in all, I'd thoroughly recommend this trip which was such good value for money and if you get Memi as your guide then you will learn so much too. It was a wonderful way to spend the day. We just wish we could have spent more time at each place and didn't have to leave for the grey skies of London so soon!
Thank you so much for this fantastic and detailed review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear how much you and your group enjoyed your day with us—what a special way to celebrate a hen weekend 😊 It’s great to know everything from the organisation and communication to the flexible pick-up made your experience smooth and enjoyable. Memi will be especially thrilled by your kind words—she truly loves what she does, and it’s wonderful to hear how her knowledge and personality made the tour even more memorable for your group. It sounds like you made the most of every stop, from the magic of Melissani Cave to the charm of Assos and Fiskardo (and we love that you squeezed in some local treats along the way!). Even early in the season, those views and colours really do make the island special—and Myrtos never disappoints. We completely understand wishing for more time at each stop—there’s just so much to take in! Hopefully that just gives you the perfect excuse to come back and explore even more of Kefalonia in the future. Thank you again for your recommendation, and we’d love to welcome you all back anytime. Safe travels back to London!
We had a really lovely day doing this tour. The two guides, Memi and Nikolas, gave us lots of really interesting information on Kefalonia’s history and environment and were very friendly. It was a great way to see some top sights and also generally see more of the beautiful countryside.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear you had such a lovely day exploring Kefalonia with us. Memi and Nikolas will be especially happy to know you enjoyed their insights and friendly company—they’re truly passionate about sharing the island’s history and natural beauty. It’s wonderful that the tour gave you a chance to experience both the highlights and the countryside. We hope to welcome you back again for another adventure in the future!
