Summary: It was a nice day trip. The stops where a little short (only 30 min at everything, which was enough time for the cave for example, but not that much for Argostoli) but we saw a lot. Even some turtles in Argostoli. All in all I would totally recommend this trip to get some impressions of Kefalonia!
