Guided tour of Argostoli
Free time in the capital of Kefalonia
Wine tasting at the Robola wine estate

What to expect

The capital of Kefalonia is that rare thing in Greece – a place more famous for its present than its past. And that's because Argostoli is one of the liveliest spots in the Ionian islands. It's not about ancient ruins here but about the buzz of strolling around the squares and the harbour. And kicking off the trip at a winery, you can raise a glass to the night ahead.

It all starts with the chance to toast your night out with a trip to the Robola wine estate. Raise a glass of its acclaimed wine and kick off to a night to remember in style. On to Argostoli and you can wander along the promenade or soak up the atmosphere in the lively main square.

There are plenty of trendy bars and cafés to choose from, so whether you're after a cocktail or a frappé, you'll find it here. You'll find a host of great shops, too, all tempting you with their wares.

Premier Kefalonia Tour with Lake Melissani, Boat Trip and Taverna Lunch

Kefalonia was just one of seven beautiful Ionian islands until Captain Corelli came along with his mandolin and sprinkled some Hollywood glamour on its shores. But there's more than silver screen glitz for you to uncover on this fun tour. Jane, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘You'll hear all about the fascinating history, Greek mythology and love stories of Kefalonia.'Your adventure kicks off underground at Lake Melissani. The ancient Greeks called it the Cave of the Nymphs. It's quite the experience to glide over its glistening waters, piloted by a friendly local. We'll then pass Sami, the fishing village in which Nicolas Cage's Italian soldier fell in love with local doctor's daughter Penelope Cruz. Next up is a pit stop at Agia Efimia, where you'll have some time to poke around the shops before boarding a boat for a cruise.We'll sail along the northeastern coast of Kefalonia – all pine-clad hills punctured by hidden coves of pebbly beaches. There'll be a pit stop on Amoudi beach for a chance to swim, before docking in Fiskardo, where you'll drop into a family-run taverna for a lunch made from locally sourced ingredients. This tiny port of pastel-coloured houses and flower-filled stone streets is ‘proud of its Venetian architecture and Roman heritage', says Jane. In the afternoon, you'll visit the untouched perfection of the village of Assos and stop by Myrtos beach – one of the stars of Captain Corelli – for a photo. 'Many rate it as one of the world's most beautiful beaches', adds Jane.

One of our local guides, Thaleia, says "loggerhead turtles migrate to parts all around Kefalonia's coastlines in spring to lay their eggs. At Argostoli Port, you've got a good chance of seeing them swimming between the docked boats. You'll start the tour with a stop at Argostoli Port, where you might see the turtles out and about if they're in the area. Then, you'll visit a local shop to taste olive oil, sweet mandola, honey, and Robola wine. From here, it's on to Agios Gerasimos Monastery.This place is regarded as one of the most sacred sites on the island, which isn't surprising since it's been around since 1560.
