Two of Kefalonia's greatest natural wonders back-to-back — the cathedral-like Drogarati stalactite cave and the ethereal underground Melissani Lake — on one seamless private excursion. An island highlight reel in half a day.
What to expect
Drogarati greets you with a vast, vaulted chamber dripping with 150-million-year-old stalactites and stalagmites — the acoustics are so perfect that Maria Callas once performed here. Your guide explains the seismic history that shaped the cave before you move to nearby Melissani, where a rowboat takes you across an underground tidal lake lit by a hole in the cave's ceiling. The two experiences together form one of the most memorable natural-history double-bills in the entire Ionian. The return to Argostoli takes under 30 minutes.
Good to know
