Captain Corelli's Kefalonia Tour

4.5/5
314 reviews

Mystical mountains, verdant valleys, secluded coves and azure waters that glitter in the sunlight. Kefalonia is a beauty. Take the ferry across from Zante for the day and then hop on a coach for a tour of the island's most picturesque spots, including Melissani Cave and Myrtos Bay.

Just north of Zante, Kefalonia is an island that's big on beauty. You'll cruise over, watching the mountains and cliffs rise high from the sea to Pessada harbour. Your first stop is Drogarati Cave, where you'll step inside a vast cavern and be dazzled by the numerous stalactites and stalagmites. We'll continue to Lake Melissani for a boat trip across this underground lagoon with aquamarine waters that glisten in the sun.

Next, we'll head to the seaside village of Agia Efimia. Here, you'll have free time for lunch. In the afternoon, there's a photo stop at Myrtos Bay – a famous filming spot from Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Rounding off the trip is some free time in Argostoli, the island's capital.

    I was extremely disappointed with this excursion and felt it was a waste of money. Much of the day was spent travelling by coach, leaving little time to actually explore Kefalonia. The final town stop, advertised as a highlight, allowed less than 20 minutes, which felt misleading. The lunch stop seemed geared towards one overcrowded restaurant, where service was rushed and poor value (€20 for a chicken leg and four potatoes). Overall, this trip fell far below the quality and value I have come to

    Einziges Manko war die extrem lange Transferzeit. Wir wurden 2 Stunden vor der endgültigen Zusammführung sämtlicher Gäste abgeholt. Entsprechend spät war dann auch die Rückkehr.

    Wir haben diesen Ausflug gebucht, da er auch deutschsprachig stattfinden sollte, aber unser Tourguide Bianca "ich spreche im Bus kein deutsch". Ich hatte sie gebeten uns auch die Infos zu geben, die sie den Niederländern und Engländern gab, aber sie spricht im Bus kein deutsch. Einzige deutsche Info war die Uhrzeit zur Abfahrt bei einem Busstopp. Viel Geld bezahlt für schlechten Service.

    Prachtige route over het eiland! Flora is top, mooi groen eiland , in deze tijd prachtige planten o.a.brem orleanders etc. Rozen tuin bij klooster heel mooi. Misschien leuk voor toeristen als 1 bewoner van het klooster (20 nonnen?) de groep welkom heet en vertelt wat haar dagelijkse activiteiten zijn! Grotten heel bijzonder! Restaurant Lunch goed gekozen , snel en efficiënt.
