Most visitors to Greece make a bee-line to the hot spots of Santorini, Crete, Rhodes and Mykonos. Wish them happy travels…then head for Kefalonia. Though the movie Captain Corelli's Mandolin put Kefalonia on the map, its north-western location spares it from tourist overload, making it the ideal destination for those seeking stunning scenery and relative tranquility.

Take a private Kefalonia tour and explore this Ionian gem in the company of a local.

The road to Myrtos beach will leave your knuckles white, so let your guide do the driving. And you won't be able to stop your jaw from dropping at Melissani, where you can bob in a rowboat on a lake inside a cave.

If you've never tacked or jibed before, your guide will help you hoist the jib and take you sailing on a private yacht. If you'd rather just dangle your tackle in the sea, ask your guide to find a fishing charter.

Epicureans will enjoy savoring flame-grilled souvlaki by the sea, so ask your guide for taverna recommendations.
