What to expect

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.

    De overtocht duurt erg lang, waardoor het een hele lange dag is.

    De hele dag met de bas op stap was leuk. Je ziet wat van het eiland en de geplande stops onderweg waren prima. De gids had genoeg te vertellen dus dat was ook leuk.

    Reisleidster Bianca was fantastisch! Ze vertelde heerlijk over Zakynthos en Kefalonie en over haar zelf. De uitstapjes zijn goed geregeld! Jammer van het eten bij de verplichte taverne, dat vonden we niet zo lekker. Al met al een topdag gehad, zou het echt niet willen missen.

    Laat ik beginnen met te zeggen dat het eiland Kefalonie een prachtig eiland is. Maar als we hadden geweten dat de ferry naar het eiland er ruim 100 minuten over deed ( enkele reis ) en we bijna de hele verdere dag in de bus zouden zitten dan waren we beslist niet mee gegaan. Onder een hele dag verstaan wij ong 8 uur, wij hebben er 14 uur over gedaan. We zijn om 07.35 uur vertrokken en om 21.30 uur waren we terug bij ons hotel

    Gids Bianca is TOP. We hebben genoten van deze trip. Best zit je aan de kant van de gids, zo kan je meer genieten van de mooie natuur van Kefalonia. De grotten waren mooi, maar meer dan 100 trappen is niet voor iedereen weggelegd. We zagen ook een zeeschildpad aan de brug in de hoofdstad. Mooi dag gehad. Ook een zeer veilige chauffeur Pieros.

I segreti di Zante con visita alle Grotte Azzurre e degustazioni locali

È facile capire perché i veneziani chiamavano Zante il "Fiore d'Oriente". Questo tour esclusivo tocca alcuni dei villaggi più graziosi dell'isola e il remoto monastero di Anafonitria. E non è tutto. Ci saranno anche vini e dolci locali da assaggiare, oltre a una breve gita in barca alle Grotte Blu, uno dei punti più profondi del Mediterraneo.

Zante cruise to Turtle Island for private groups

Grab a group of your nearest and dearest and set sail on this private cruise to the island of Marthonisi, better known as Turtle Island. You'll head out from Laganas Bay, part of the Zakynthos Marine Park which is a protected area where loggerhead turtles nest. Your experienced captain will tell you all about these endangered animals as you try to catch a glimpse of them during your three-hour trip. If the weather's on your side, you'll get to have a wander on the uninhabited island and go for a swim. It's like your own private slice of paradise.
