Thanks to the Team from Blue Tours and especially to Vicky, who made the booking super easy and uncomplicated and this amazing experience possible.

This is the second time we have booked accommodation through Avalon Travel. This time we came back to Cephalonia to get married and the gorgeous Nickolette, stamo and Mark took such good care of us and our family and friends whilst we were here. Nothing was to much trouble, they sorted out coach hire for us and our party to and from the airport and to the location of our wedding on the day. The apartments were clean and well kept, we cannot recommend Avalon travel highly enough. Thank you so much. Paul and Hilary.

It was amazing day just for 25 euros per person. Captain Spyros took us from Agios Gordios and drived us to Gouvia by his car telling nice stories about villages we passed. The boat was big and nice and Spyros was the best part of it. He was joking, singins, dancing, talking to everyone and making food. The food was very tasty, and free coffe, biscuits and free wine all the day. The three places we stopped were very nice especially this wild beahh near the lake.
