4 Tours in Lefkada to Build a Day Around

1.Explore Ionian Sea with its 50 shades of blue on Makedonia Palace

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,518 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $60Our pick

Spend 8 to 9 hours aboard Makedonia Palace, visiting Porto Katsiki, Egremni Beach, Fiscardo, Ithaca, Papanikolis Cave, and Skorpios. Captain Costa keeps the mood lively with music and dancing. Lunch is included, but drinks cost extra. Expect a large, busy boat and limited time at some stops.

“We were able to swim at beaches without other boats, or huge crowds, it was just our boat. Just the right amount of spots to see in the time range.”

2.Kayak Trip to Hidden blue Cave, with lunch & fruits.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 393 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $48Best value

Start at Mikros Gialos and paddle along Lefkada’s southeast coast with guides Yiannis and Yannis. Expect about 10 kilometers of kayaking, cave swimming, snorkeling, remote beaches, red starfish, island stories, dry bags, and a homemade lunch with fruit. The pace is friendly, but you need to handle several hours in the sun.

“It was an amazing trip with Yannis, the best guide in Greece! He made the trip very secure and funny! Very nice Cave and lunch break with amazing views and exoerience on the kajaks! Thanks Yannies!!”
