Nice driver and great...

Jamie_B, Sep 2025
Nice driver and great stops along way were best part. Calling us the day before to let us know about an extra €40 for fuel was the bad. Ya I know the owner can say it states that when booking. But all it really says is 'a small fee may apply'. Well €40 isn't a small fee. When trip had been booked for 3 weeks, you had plenty of time to let us know about the fee. Funny thing is if you had just told us up front, probably would have felt better about it. Just do others a favor and let them know right away...its good business.

Really enjoy it Gerry was so informative and would recommend,we loved Fiscardo and he took us to caves which were amazing.

Completely Amazing Tour!!!

Kasey_A, Jul 2025
This tour was WONDERFUL!!! We saw SO many beautiful places that we would never have seen on our own! Kostas was our favorite tour guide from all our time in Greece!! Our family enjoyed this tour and the scenery more than Santorini!!! (That speaks volumes!) Book it!!!

Nikos was the best!

Views, caves and great food

Graham_W, Sep 2024
Loved this tour. Our private driver while not a “guide” was the best guide we have ever had. Very knowledgeable on everything in the area. Loved the mountain views and caves and a definite must is to go to a local restaurant (outside of the tourist areas)

Fantastic day!

Catherine_A, Aug 2024
Really great day. Best tour guide ever. Had an absolutely wonderful time and would 100% recommend! Lots of fun at the caves and lake, swimming at the beach and wine tasting.

Amazing day trip!

ieva_j, Aug 2024
We had a great day, the drive asked what we would like to see and tailored the trip especially for us. We were able see most beautiful places, the drive shared some much information and knowledge about the area and the villages. We enjoyed wine tasting experience. We traveled with the olderly parents with the limited mobility, and this trip was our holiday highlight. Huge thank you!

Kefalonia Tour

Andreas was great. Kefalonia is huge. Know where are you wanna go before you go on the trip. It will help make your process more targeted to what you wanna do. Andreas was great and helping us do that.

Fantastic way to see this beautiful Island

Pieris_A, Jun 2024
Out driver , Andreas was excellent. he picked us up promptly and had lots of information and stories. This is a truly beautiful island and the Mellisani Caves are a wonder to see. We were a little disappointed with Assos but Fiskardo was excellent. The highlight was the Olive Oil tasting where the owner showed he passion and love for her olive oil business. The communication from Nikos, before the trip, was very good and the itinerary for the day was perfect. We would highly recommend this trip.

Full day with lots of sights and a great guide!

dovecallie, Jun 2024
We highly recommend this trip! Gerry was an absolute great guide, we saw so much of the island, even "off the trail" things interesting for us! He was also very knowledgeable too. Thanks alot for a great day!

An amazing day on beautiful Kefalonia !

Jane_P, May 2024
Nikos arranged for a wonderful driver - Costis - He arrived early and we discussed our goals for the day. The company was extremely flexible with our trip experience and Costis created a dream day for us!! Truly this day exceeded our expectations due to Costis and the company’s commitment.

Perfect day in Kefalonia

Nikos created a perfect experience for us! His knowledge of the area was unmatched and he shared personal experiences with each area we visited. We highly recommend him for your day in Kefalonia.

Andreas-what a superstar!

Nandani_J, Sep 2023
Our tour guide was Andreas, I told him my passion was food and he went out of his way to take us to local restaurants, local pastry shops culminating in the best waffle and ice cream I have ever eaten. We were extremely impressed at his local knowledge and he showed us all the sights with a friendly smile. Even before the tour his boss Nicos rang me twice to confirm details which I thought was very professional. We struck gold with Andreas, such a kind and personable young men, this gentleman is an asset to the company and I believe we have made a friend!Highly recommend this tour company they are the real deal

I can only recommend this...

Zdenka_R, Sep 2023
I can only recommend this tour to others, it was a enjoyable day and we learned a lot about the island.

Fantastic trip to get a sneak peek into Kefalonia life.

Mykel_D, Sep 2023
Andreas was a fantastic driver and guide all day. He was easy to talk to and very knowledgeable of Kefalonia. The views around Kefalonia e.g. Myrtos Beach or the Melissani Cave just has to be seen. Both are short stops, but they don't require a long time. Lunch and the beach swim was amazing. We went to Agios Thomas Beach. And finished at a family run winery, Gentilini winery and vineyard. It was a great day, that I would recommend to others. 😁

Was great, really enjoyed...

Josh_M, Sep 2023
Was great, really enjoyed and smooth! The overall day was brilliant, we got to arrange what we wished to do for the day and it was fun.

Amazing experience!!

Marilou_J, Aug 2023
Our tour guide, Jerry, was the best! We will definitely do this again and recommend it to my friends. This is a must if visiting Kefalonia for the first time.

Very enjoyable day out

Gillian_H, Aug 2023
We all enjoyed the trip around Kefalonia very much. Chara was very informative and helpful and took us to some lovely places. My personal favourite was Fiscardo. The fact that it was a private tour with just the four of us added to the enjoyment of the experience

Fiscardo, the caves and...

Tony_A, Aug 2023
Fiscardo, the caves and Antisamos Beach were the highlights of a great day. Jerry was a great driver & host. We would highly recommend this tour.

An amazing day packed with amazing sights

michael_t, Aug 2023
The guide, Chara, was fantastic. We never felt rushed and she was very knowledgeable. The views around asos, the melisanni cave and wine tasting were particularity memorable. The only negative thing was the beach stop was way too busy with no free sunbeds but the food there was excellent.

All in a day!! EXCELLENT!! 100% Recommend!!

Barbara_B, Jul 2023
FANTASTIC tour!! Highly recommend!! We saw all Kefalonias “jewels” that we wanted to see and Cara (not sure on spelling sorry) was amazing, she was informative, friendly, an excellent driver and never made us feel rushed! Felt like VIPs!! Thanks so much!! 😊 A*

The Best

Alejandra_O, Jul 2023
We were impressed with the quality of the service The Mercedes Sprinter was perfect. Jerry the driver was the Best, super friendly and speaks perfect English I would definitely recomend this Tour and Tour Company

Perfect trip to see main points of kefalonia

Gerald_M, Jul 2023
This was a fabulous trip. We were picked up from our hotel in Skala bang on time at 9:30 (as others have said there was a surcharge of 30 euros so was expecting this). Although described as unguided this was far from truth as we were kept informed by our driver Hamas all along route and her knowledge and English language were superb. We cannot rate her highly enough. It was a long day but we basically drove to all the main reference points...fiskardo, assos, mellissiani, dragonati, antisammos, mythos etc virtually right round the island with many photo stops. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Awesome Tour

David_D, Jul 2023
My family and I really enjoyed this tour. We were able to see the entire island making stops at various locations throughout the island. Each of the stops were beautiful with enough time built in to thoroughly enjoy each stop. My teenagers especially loved the swimming locations chosen on the tour. Our driver Costas was awesome and took care of our family every step of the way. He made great suggestions on how to best handle the tour route and letting us know how much time is best at each stop. Our family loved this tour and we are so glad we decided to book the entire day tour. This tour allowed us to see the entire island and Costas providing details about each stop and a history of the island was awesome. Thank you so much for such a wonderful day!!!

Kefalonia in a day

Stephen_G, Jul 2023
From the moment we were picked up to the moment we were dropped off a truly magical day our driver costas tended to us like a man on a mission the only down side to the day was the weather breezy/cloudy and a spot of rain seen almost all the whole island and cant argue with that highly recommended

A memorable day in Kefalonia

Jacqueline_K, Jun 2023
We spent a memorable day with our driver, Andreas. He took us to important, interesting, and beautiful sites and punctuated each stop with background information. By the end of the day we were left feeling we had spent a day with family, there is no higher compliment!

Great trip

Pierre_V, Jun 2023
Had a wonderful trip. Learnt a lot about the island. The trip does cover a lot and had flexibility on how much time we wanted to spend at places, so never felt rushed.

Consider no other Kefalonian tour other than this one!

Sarah_F, May 2023
Hands down this was an excellent tour led by Andreas. We travelled as a group of 8 people, and this experience was undoubtedly the highlight of our holiday in Kefalonia. Andreas picked us up from our villa and took us around the whole island, he was funny, knowledgeable and great company. As we were on holiday at the start of the season, be aware some things like the castle will not be open for entry, but regardless it has a phenomenal view from the top. May seems like an excellent time to be there, as there aren't too many people. This was perfect for us as we did not run into any queues when visiting the two caves (Melissani and Drogarati) that required tickets. There was a ticket deal of 10 euros for both cave entries, but this may change later on. This tour covers the whole island and the best places to see, it was a very well-tailored schedule with some room to spend as much or as little time as you like in certain spots. A lot of us particularly loved the church of Agios Gerasimos and Antisamos beach where some of the group swam in the sea. It's hard to pinpoint which is the best part of this tour as all the places are surreal in their own right. Andreas offered us plenty of water on the trip and he also provided towels for us on the beach. The minivan was clean and spacious for us all with air conditioning and a large boot for any bags. After looking at serval tour options beforehand for our Kefalonia journey, our tour with Andreas exceed all expectations and we would definitely book with them again in the future. Thank you to Nikos for keeping us informed of our tour and a big thank you to Andreas, for showing us the beautiful island and making us all laugh.

Best beach and tour day!

Lillian_H, Aug 2022
The island of Kelaphonia is so clean and gorgeous! Costas was a fantastic tour guide and after getting us to the caves ( before the lines😊) we went to Astimos beach and it was so incredible we chose to spend our day there at Acron beach club which was a pleasant surprise for our group of six - quiet and elegant!

Brilliant day out

John_D, Aug 2022
Absolutely brilliant day. Our guide - Nykos was awesome. Although the whole day was planned, there was total flexibility to exclude anything we may not enjoy and provided sensational suggestions instead. No better way to visit Kefalonia. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to cover maximum prime sites in a relaxed and not rushed manner.
