Lovely experience
We were picked up in Argostoli, a smaller sized coach and around 25 people on it. The views on the way up North were amazing and the visits to Assos and Fiskardo were well worth the journey. Seeing these places really gives the feel of how most of Kefalonia would have been pre the big earthquake. We chose to eat at the recommended place in Fiskardo and were sat right next to the pebble beach with a lovely view and found the food and service to be good. The tour guide shared lots of information on the tour and we came away feeling like we'd learned a lot about Kefalonia as a whole and enjoyed the whole experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed the beautiful scenery, Assos and Fiskardo, as well as learning more about Kefalonia’s history and culture. We’re also glad you enjoyed your lunch by the sea. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Kefalonia again!

Best way to see the island
My family and I had a fantastic tour with our guide Chris who was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We expected to see Assos, Fiskardo and the Myrtos beach view but he included many other photo stops and even surprised us with a picnic including wine, bead, meats and cheeses. He dropped us off for lunch at a great spot to finish our tour. He was able to give so much information as we were driving around and it felt as if we had seen so much of the island. Would thoroughly recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review! Will pass your amazing words to Chris! Hope to see you again soon!

Brrilliantly bonkers and beautiful.
This terrrific trrip arround the norrthern hemispherre of the island did not disappoint. The brrilliantly bonkers tour guide led the grroup well. Verry entertaining. Assos and Fiskardo were beautiful but be warned… they will detail tragic incidents such as earthquakes, earth tremors, hurricanes, drowning, under currents, civil unrest and landslides while driving on a cliffside so don’t do the trip if you’re prone to anxious episodes. Some of the clearest, bluest, turquoise waters I’ve ever seen. Definitely worth the rride. My final advice is, don’t eat at the restaurant they recommend in Fiskardo - it’s overpriced and the food is mediocre.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your detailed review and for joining us on our Northern Kefalonia tour! We’re delighted you enjoyed the beautiful scenery, Assos and Fiskardo, as well as our “brilliantly bonkers” guide! 😄 We also appreciate your honest feedback about the restaurant recommendation. We’ll certainly take it on board and review the options we suggest to our guests. Thank you again for your feedback and for the 4 stars—we hope to welcome you back to Kefalonia again!

Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cephalonia.
How much does Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos cost?
+
Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cephalonia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cephalonia is not rushed.
Is Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cephalonia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cephalonia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cephalonia and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Kefalonia's Northern Gems: Assos, Fiskardo & Myrtos start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cephalonia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cephalonia?
+
On Outty we rank every Cephalonia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include "Dreamy cruise"Daily Cruise from Argostoli harbour with a traditional Greek boat, "QueenBee" Full-Day Boat Trip with Lunch, Kefalonia Wine Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cephalonia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cephalonia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
