Private Argostoli Sightseeing

Skip the over-crowded bus tours for a chance to explore Argostoli with your very own personal guide, who will whisk you away along the scenic coastal road of Fanari with picturesque photo stops at the lighthouse and Katavothres water wheels. Learn how the area's residents take advantage of the area's special water flow by using the sea water to generate their mills, as your local and knowledgeable guide explains the process.

On this very special, private tour you will continue through the resort area of Lassi and the beautiful Livathos villages to the Monastery of Agios Andreas. This main part of this 13th century monastery has been preserved in its original form with iconic 17th century artwork. In the traditional village of Kastro lies St. George's Castle, a Venetian fortress dating back to the 16th century. Take advantage of the caste's strategic location to grab gorgeous panoramic photos of some of the best views of the island, as well as the neighboring island of Zante.

You and your personal guide will continue from here to En Kefallinia, an organic farm filled with lush, sweet-smelling citrus trees and gardens. While here, walk among the scented lavender paths and revel in the forgotten pleasures of the countryside while you enjoy your coffee, tea, and homemade local sweets, and pick up a bio-friendly souvenir or two.

Make your way back to Argostoli with a stop at Koutavos Lagoon, a famous nature reserve for wildlife. Keep an eye out for the Caretta Turtle and various waterfowl that call this area home. Pass in front of De Bosset Bridge, the longest stone bridge in the world, on your way back to port.

This personalized and intimate tour will have you experiencing the very best of Argostoli with professional, one-on-one attention.
