Overview
After your arrival at Argostoli port you will be welcomed by your guide or escort in Kefalonia, to start the tour. You will get on board of your fully air-conditioned vehicle and head for your first stop, Myrtos beach.
Myrtos beach is known for its crystal clear blue waters and golden sand. You will have the chance to take photos of the magnificent beach, known as one of the most photographed places in Greece, before departing for Melissani Lake. Driving across the island, you will reach the subterranean Lake Melissani. Enjoy a boat ride across the mystical underground lake, where sunlight entering the caves turns the water bold blue and scatters rays of light around the whole interior. The headwater is in Argostoli, and it enters the cave by travelling underground across the island and through holes from the western coastline. The participants will visit the interior by boat and see the small island where the ancients held ceremonies dedicated to god Panas and the nymphs. Therefore it is also known as the “Cave of the Nymphs”.
Afterwards we return to Argostoli, capital city of Kefalonia, for a short city tour and some free time. You will take a short stroll to the main sightseeing of the town. After this amazing tour you will return back to the port in time for your cruise ship departure, full of unforgettable memories.
