Kefalonia and Ithaca day cruise on Makedonia Palace

3.5/5
4 reviews

Another two of the Ionian's idyllic islands will be in the spotlight on this full day cruise from Lefkada. And aside from cruising around Kefalonia and Ithaca, you'll have the added bonus of anchoring up in Fiskardo and visiting Papanikolis sea cave with a few swimming stops between.

You'll board the boat in Nidri to embark on your Ionian Island voyage with Kefalonia as your first destination. But first you'll swing by two of Lefkada's stunning beaches – Egremmi and Porto Katsiki – for some free time to swim and sunbathe. Afterwards, you'll sail to Fiskardo on the northern tip of Kefalonia, often dubbed the St Tropez of Greece.

Enjoy some free time to meander around and have a coffee by the water before casting off for nearby Ithaca island – homeland of mythical Odysseus, the man who built the Trojan horse – for some more time on a pristine beach. Then, on your way back, we'll detour to Papanikolis sea cave on Meganisi island, believed to be a submarine hiding spot during the Second World War.

    If you want to spend a lot of time swimming in the beautiful seas then this is the tour for you. If you want to spend more time on the island the boat stopped at ie Fiskado on Kefalonia then maybe this is not the tour for you. I would have liked to look around Meganisi and Ithaka but the boat only stopped for swimming.

    The trip was enjoyable and the boat was comfortable however we had great difficulty understanding any of the commentary as the announcements were in such a strong Greek accent. As far as I could tell there was no safety announcement regarding life jackets or muster points which was rather worrying. It would have been good to have more time in Kefalonia as we were rather rushed.

    Ticket said go to Nidri pier only to find about 20 boats going out and no idea what boat we should be on. Eventually one of the boats said they would accept our tickets but it turned out to be nothing like the trip as advertised.
