Hello everyone! Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Lambros and I am your guide in Kefalonia. I was born in Ancient Olympia where the Olympic games were born, where the sense of nobility, sportsmanship and hospitality run through my veins. For the last 20 years I have been living on Kefalonia and my occupation is craftsman for jewelry. Kefalonia has inspired me very much in my creations. Recently I 've upgraded my hobby into "passion" and seriously began an alternate business in trekking, hiking, trail running and bike tours. Come with me and together we will discover the hidden treasures of Kefalonia! Where nature has created the unique green mountains dropping into the sea. Follow me and I will guide you to beaches, castles, monasteries, museums, vineries and picturesque villages to taste traditional cousine and sweets. To get-to-know the craftsmanship of jewelry and wood-work. My tour can be adjusted to your demands and meet your expectations, taking into consideration the human aspect. You'll soon fall in love with this island just like I did and just like Odysseus always returned to Kefalonia and Ithaki from his travels, so will you! - I am studying to become a certified mountain escort. - I have a driver's license. - I have done first aid seminars. - I have goldsmith's degree. I am not a licensed guide for historical monuments in Greece and I'm not formally authorized to guide you inside them.

Your Kefalonia tour itinerary

We start our hike at the antennas at an elevation of 1560m. A five-hundred- metre dirt road takes us to the path in the fir forest which leads to "Megas Soros" the peak of Ainos at 1627m. We stop to admire magnificent views of Zakynthos, Ithaca, Lefkada, Peloponnese and Central Greece. Then along a rocky path with spectacular views of both sides of the island to the peak of the mountain. Words cannot express the beauty of the scenery! Depending on the season, we may see "viola Kefalonia ", the emdemic orchid, a rare species of flower that thrives at the high altitudes of Ainos. We stop for snacks and photos at a surprise spot -a rock overlooking the beautiful Lourdas beach. We head back following a different route to the starting point of our hike. * Alternatively the route can be configured to a greater or lesser degree depending on the level and by arrangement.
