Getting Around

Getting to kefalonia is straightforward enough – there is an airport at near the towns of Argostoli and Lassi and is typical of Greek island airports – it’s quite small! Main travel days are Sunday and Tuesday (to coincide with when people leave their holiday apartments) and during the summer months it can get quite chaotic in the airport terminal! You can also reach the island by ferry and there are frequent connections with Italy, the Greek mainland and other islands. You’ll need to hire a car to get the most out of your stay on kefalonia as the bus service is not reliable and doesn’t service much of the island, making it difficult to get from your apartment to some of best sights. By hiring a car you can explore anywhere you fancy and find your own patch of paradise on a secluded beach – perfect! Here’s a top tip – hire a car at the airport – you’ll save yourself a lot of money by not taking a taxi from the airport to your rental.
