A Must see if in Sami

Published on Aug, 2024

Beautiful cave with the most amazing water as this comes from the direct sunlight above. You enter following a queue that can be anything up to one and a half hours. Get there early to avoid this. We only queued for ten minutes. You get on a boat and you spend around 5 minutes with the rowing guide. It's all over before you know it but is a definite must while you are in Sami. If on the other side of the island I wouldn't bother for how long you are actually in the cave!

EXCELLENT TRIP HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Fantastic and very well organised trip. Our tour guide Lucas and bus driver could not do enough for you and were amazing. Very interesting info on the way to the most beautiful Myrtos beach and breathtaking Mellisani lake

A perfect half day trip.

Published on Jul, 2023

Everything was perfect, from being picked up from our hotel, first stop Myrtos Beach, really beautiful beach but if you don’t get there early you stand no chance of a sunbed or umbrella, there is no shade on the beach apart from a nice beach bar but not very big, I would advise you buy a parasol beforehand but also I would not take young children as sea quite rough and because it’s pebbles you struggle to get in and out of sea as it’s sloping. We then went to Mellisini lake absolutely beautiful then to caves. We had a lovely lady Tour Guide who gave us lots of interesting information as we drove.
