Highlights

Begin in Vathy, the elegant capital and natural harbor, where neoclassical architecture reflects the island’s maritime heritage. Continue to Stavros, a key site linked to the enduring search for Odysseus’ palace, with archaeological insights and panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Ascend to Kathara Monastery, a hilltop landmark offering sweeping vistas over the Ionian Sea and a deeper sense of Ithaca’s geography and isolation. End in the coastal village of Kioni, one of the island’s most picturesque harbors, where guests can stroll narrow alleys or enjoy a seaside lunch at leisure. Throughout the day, enjoy scenic drives revealing Ithaca’s rugged coastline, hidden viewpoints, and timeless natural beauty. This is a fully private, flexible experience with a local driver, with optional guiding for deeper historical and mythological context.
