What to expect

Discover the ideal blend of history, culture, and natural splendour on this comprehensive day-long guided tour of Kefalonia. Kick off your adventure at the Mycenaean Tomb of Tzanata, one of Kefalonia’s most noteworthy archaeological gems. With over 3,000 years under its belt, this imposing edifice is thought to have been the property of a Mycenaean noble or leader. Delve into the island’s Bronze Age society and its fascinating connections to Homeric myths and the realm of Odysseys.

Following that, pay a visit to the Roman Villa of Skala, which houses exquisitely preserved 2nd-century mosaics portraying scenes of exceptional artistry. These refined relics highlight Kefalonia’s significance during the Roman era. Proceed to Skala Village, where you'll have leisure time to amble through delightful lanes, peruse local boutiques, or unwind at a coastal café while taking in views of the Ionian Sea.

The tour then guides you to the untouched allure of Mounda Beach, also known as Turtle Beach. This is a safeguarded nesting site for the endangered Caretta caretta sea turtles. Take a dip in the crystal clear waters, relax on the golden sands, or simply bask in the serene coastal landscape. You can choose to round off your day with a mouth-wateringly good lunch at a traditional seaside taverna, relishing fresh local cuisine and warm Kefalonian hospitality.
