Day Trip to St. Gerasimos Monastery and Drogatari, Melissani Caves with Food Tasting

Join us on an extraordinary day trip to the Drogatari and Melissani Caves in Kefalonia. Our journey kicks off with a 40-minute scenic drive to St. Gerasimos Monastery, the patron saint of Kefalonia. Explore the monastery's intricate architecture and serene gardens while immersing yourself in the rich history together with our local guide.

Next, prepare your taste buds as we indulge in a tasting experience of Kefalonia's finest local products. From the richness of olive oil to the sweetness of honey and the depth of local wines, you will experience a tasting of local specialties.

Our next destination, the Drogarati Cave, where nature's artistry is on full display. Stalactites, stalagmites – it's like stepping into another world. Then, it's off to the enchanting Melissani Lake, nestled within a hidden cave. Here you can hop on a row boat for a 10-minute ride across the mesmerizing turquoise waters.

Next up, we will explore the charming Agia Efimia Village. Picture-perfect harbor, quaint streets, and amazing Greek food – it's the perfect spot to relax and refuel. Before heading back to the starting point, we will stop Myrtos Beach viewpoint for some serious beach vibes. The contrast of the white pebbles and the blue sea is absolutely stunning – get those cameras ready!
