Discover Ithaka Cruise & Tour

Starting our day, we take the lovely drive towards “Sami” Port and we board the ferry boat. We are cruising towards Ithaca Island and we reach “Piso Aetos” port, the starting point of our Ithaka bus tour.

Our first destination is the capital of the island, the little town of “Vathi”, where we have a stop to visit the museums & churches, go shopping and have some free time to explore & enjoy the town. Then, we board our boat for the "cruise part" of our excursion. Leaving "Vathi" we pass by the charming "Lazaretto" islet situated in the center of “Vathi” bay.

Cruising the sparkling waters of the Ionian sea we reach our next destination - the amazing little beach of "Gidaki" for our swim stop. There we spend about half-an-hour swimming, sunbathing and enjoying ourselves surrounded by crystal clear aquamarine waters and lavish green scapes.

Continuing our excursion, we set course towards the charming “Kioni Bay” - with the little namesake village

- to have lunch, and afterwards taking our bus again passing by the village of Frikes, we head towards our last stop - the village of “Stavros”.

There we have a stopover to taste the delicious local dessert "Rovani" and admire the bust of Odysseus, the old church of “Sotiros” (Savior) as well as the beautiful “Polis Bay” a beach of great beauty.

Finishing our tour, we reach back to “Piso Aetos” port for the ferry ride back to our base after a day of mythological splendor.
