A Truly Memorable Day in Greece - We had the most wonderful day with Bouchra! From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely at ease. As a local, she knew all the hidden gems—Argostoli, the amazing caves, serene lakes, and stunning beaches—and showed us everything at the perfect pace. She shared stories, tips, and laughter along the way, making the whole experience feel personal and special. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re visiting Greece, Bouchra is an absolute must!

An Unforgettable Experience with the Best Guide - Our guide Bouchra was simply outstanding! She made our experience in Greece unforgettable. As a local, she knew exactly what was worth seeing and managed the timing perfectly so we could enjoy everything without feeling rushed. From Argostoli to the caves, the lakes, and the breathtaking beaches, she showed us the very best of the area with passion and knowledge. We highly recommend her to anyone visiting—an excellent guide and truly a wonderful person!

Great tour I would recommend for anyone - Our tour guide, Maria, was so sweet and knowledgeable. The tour of the gorgeous island took us along a high cliff side highway to the northern half of the island, stopping twice for pictures. Our next stop took us to the underground lake Melissani Lake. Long wait, but well worth the experience. Our last stop was Antisamos beach for some swim time in the ocean and lunch before returning to Argostoli. We had them drop us off at the city center so we could walk around and shop a little before returning to the cruise ship. My only wish was that we would have stopped at the small quant village of Assos (which we took pictures of from above). I asked Maria and the initial plan was to stop there but I think the hour long wait for Melissani Lake didn't leave us time to visit any of the smaller quant Venician villages.

A taste of Kefalonia with Kefalonia Excursions - Thoroughly well organised from the initial booking to the actual trip . Georgia , in the Lassi office was a delight to talk to & explained in detail the tour we had chosen . On the actual day we forgot to take our water ( a must in this heat ) ,so she kindly gave us 2 bottles . The tour we chose was the Robolo winery , Drogarati cave. Melissani Lake. Fiskardo village & a photo stop at Myrtos beach . Our tour host , Duska , was very interesting & knowledgeable. The whole tour was kept to schedule with very little waiting around in the heat . The views both off & on the coach are stunning . This tour is the perfect way to get a taster of what the island has to offer . We will be back for more !
