Best way to see Kefalonia during cruiseship stop - Our half-day private tour of Kefalonia with driver Paul was the perfect way to see the island when time was limited. He knew how to get to the popular locations before the "crowds," which paled in comparison to the more popular islands, and he helped us fall in love with the island and its natural beauty. This tour was reasonably priced and we will definitely be back!

Cephalonia Tour Guide - Dimintri was a very professional and knowledgeable tour guide. He gave us a beautiful historical overview of the island. It was a great day in Cephalonia. Dimitri went above and beyond my expectations for the tour.

Great Overview of Kefalonia - Our half day driving tour with Paul was the perfect excursion during a recent cruise stop in Kefalonia. He knew how to avoid the lines/crowds at the busier sites, and was a cautious driver throughout the tour. We highly recommend this flexible option.

Best experience of the cruise! - Initially was concerned since i didn't have a solid meetup place. Thankfully, after reading some reviews, i realized we'd have a personal driver meet us at the dock. Just like a movie, we had Demetrius waiting on the dock--with sign in hand with my name on it--as soon as we got off the ship! With our own private driver, we were able to beat the crowds, enjoy lunch, and even change an item on the itinerary (since we don't drink wine, we skipped the vineyard). We still had to pay for the different attractions, but it was FAR better to have Demetrius to chat with about life, Kefalonia, and the history of this charming Greek island. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Kefalonia private driver tour - Harris was amazing and we got to customize our itinerary! We went to the cave, beach overlook and Assos and we back by 1 pm. Drop off at hotel was convenient.

Ask for Dennis...best tour guide/driver!!! - Our driver, Dennis, was amazing!! Such a great guy and so knowledgable, helpful, friendly...we had an amazing time. Dennis had a great plan for our day, but was willing to be flexible, based on our group needs/wants. If I were to tell a friend, I would say skip the caves...go to Myros beach instead. That was our only regret.

The Best of Kephalonia - The sights on this island are stunning. The beaches, the underground lake, the impressive cave, the rugged terrain, the good wine on the winery tour all made for a memorable trip. This island has a comfortable, sort of laid back vibe which was exemplified by our driver, Spyros. He explained in a conversational style that made us feel we had known him before. Thank you for that comfort level.

Beautiful drive - Our guide George was friendly, knowledgeable and a great driver! He told us a lot about the island and took us to a great, family run winery, where we did a food and wine tasting. Our only complaint was the time we spent in the car, which was due to the size of the island, not the company. The roads are incredibly windy, with beautiful views, but not much in between. I would highly recommend this company and George, just know what you want to do and see before you go.
