    Not good value for money, not enought time at the festival ,had no time to look around the church or monastry. ,the procession itself was very interesting ,but lots of crowds . The wine tasting was a exercise to sell expensive wine,that in my opinion wasnt very nice. We could have gone both places for free.

    The guide was great and very informative. It was good to experience traditional Greek culture. The wine tasting was excellent and the owner who presented the wines was very engaging. The place was spotless.

    The festival was wonderful to see, listening to the singing from the service, very emotional. More information regarding where the coach was parked to pick us up could have been better. We went to where we were dropped off. But guide was very apologetic, and we knew it had bothered her, as one of us had a walking stick, and walked further than we needed to, but we told her not to worry. Overall a great experience

    Katalina was amazing and so sweet, she gave us so much information about the festival and the island too. The whole family loved the trip. It was a great day out and we learnt so much about Kefalonia.

    This trip was very interesting. The guide was informative and told us all about the history of the island and the festival, along with the vegetation of the island as we drove through. She was very helpful and welcoming so were the staff at the wine tasting
