| Three Islands Cruise |
| Massive sea caves, the Onassis' family island and shopping
in Nidri... |
 |
|
 |
As the name suggests, the Three
Island Cruise takes you by coach to the beautiful village of Aghia Efimia
where you'll be welcomed aboard the cruise boat that will be your comfortable
new home for the day.
You'll visit the island of Meganissi, where you'll enter the mouth of
cave Papanikolis, home to a German submarine during World War II, from
where it would lurk undetected and fire missiles at the enemy.
You'll then be in very good company when you visit Skorpios, home to
the Onassis Family, where swimming from the boat in the turquoise waters
will build your appetite for lunch and shopping on the last island of this
tour in the typical Greek town of Nidri on Lefkas.
Be sure to pack your bathing costumes and get that camera ready to marvel
at simply breathtaking sea and landscapes as you traverse through the deep
blue Ionian sea. Not suitable for people over 99 years old. |

| Beach Barbeque |
| Argostoli to Xi in a glass-bottom boat with time for sun
bathing... |
 |
|

If flitting around on coaches
and boats gets your head spinning, then why not take a leisurely tour of
the capital of Kefalonia, Argostoli in a glass bottom boat.
The Beach BBQ, is the perfect solution for making friends and discovering
more than just the tourist places.
Cruise along the west coast of Kefalonia stopping off on the way at Vardiani
Island, or "Rabbit Island", so-called because only rabbits live
there, before landing on the dark red mineral rich beach of Xi, pronounced
"ksee".

you relax and top-up your tan. |

winery and more... |
 |

Here's an excellent chance
to see our island in one day. Visit the caves of Drogarati and the magical
underground lake of Melissani where you can take a boat ride and explore
the beautiful village of Fiskardo with many of its Venetian style buildings
left untouched by the earthquake that rocked our island in 1953.
See the preserved remains of our Patron Saint, St Gerassimos, then you
can sample and buy local wines at the Robola wine factory which is a cooperative
of the many vineyards throughout Kefalonia.
After all the excitement of this whirl wind tour, chill out for lunch
in the picturesque village of Aghia Efimia. With its marina full of yachts
and launches, just sit back and relax in one of the many tavernas and watch
the world go by.

| Ancient Olympia |
| Enjoy a full day learning the origins, myths and facts about
the Olympics... |
 |
|
 |
When in Rome, do like the Romans,
when in Greece do like the Greeks. The Olympia excursion takes you first
by boat, then by coach through a time warp as you travel back in time to
the very first Olympics.
Ancient Olympia is the birth place of the Olympics and is where the torch
is still lit before being carried throughout the various continents on
its four year journey to where the games will next be held.
Visit the ancient temple ruins and acropolis with guided tours and discover
for yourself, the many artifacts dating back some millennia in the famous
Olympic Museum. A long but very rewarding excursion, a must for people
who like to do the Greek thing. |
