The trip was great overall. Our driver was very helpful and friendly but not overbearing which was perfect. The Melissani Lake was quite a site to behold, truly beautiful place and we left with a lot of fun facts about it too. I would recommend timing your trip to get there just before midday. We also loved the Winery location with its amazing views.

Despite it being off-season in Kefalonia, out tour guide was diligent in giving us the best winter experience, and has gone the extra mile in taking us to as many open places as possible as well as providing us a comprehensive detail of the island's history and highlights. If we were to come back during the summer, we would definitely consider taking this tour again.

30 people on a boat. No social distancing.Their website was clear about that. Lovely trip but we felt really uncomfortable. Hermes cruise staff needs to be more responsible. People needs rules at this moment. What a shame!

This is the second time we have booked accommodation through Avalon Travel. This time we came back to Cephalonia to get married and the gorgeous Nickolette, stamo and Mark took such good care of us and our family and friends whilst we were here. Nothing was to much trouble, they sorted out coach hire for us and our party to and from the airport and to the location of our wedding on the day. The apartments were clean and well kept, we cannot recommend Avalon travel highly enough. Thank you so much. Paul and Hilary.

6. Assos Village...a Hidden Gem

AVALON TRAVEL, Leof. Antoni Tritsi 26, Argostoli 281 00, Greece Avalon Travel

One of the most beautiful driving routes in Kefalonia starts from the port of Argostoli towards to Assos peninsula and Myrtos Bay on the northern part if the island. Assos is a tiny hamlet of pastel-colored houses with a population of just one hundred. It nestles, at the base of a hill on a small peninsula, on the north-west coast of Kefalonia and is surrounded on three sides by the stunning blue of the Mediterranean Sea. The village is almost hidden amidst thick pine forest, ringed by tall cypress trees and overlooked by a ruined 16th-century castle built high on the peninsula by the Venetians who then governed the island. It has a pebble beach and small marina lined with traditional restaurants. Wonder around the village, swim at the little pebbly beach or walk up to the remains of the Venetian Castle. **This tour operates under new operation guidelines with limited participation (50% of the seated bus), no guide and no visits on crowded places or attractions

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Bottled water provided on bus, Insurance, Tour Information folder ( Documents with details of all the visited places )

Exclusions: Food & Drink
