They were flexible with a later start date than planned due to a stomach bug.
Beautiful boat. Very luxurious

Spiros was amazing and extremely easy to deal with. Loved his local knowledge and the extra mile he went to servicing our family (two adults and two young children). He managed our entire Kefalonia leg of our trip: airport transfer to our Airbnb, a full day island tour and a 7 day private yacht charter.

Everything just happened perfectly. Best of all, Spiros was responsive and you never at all felt worried or concerned about the itinerary.

Book with Spiros!

Spiros gave great service, speedy replies to all enquiries and organised a seamless hand over. He arranged transfer from the airport to Sami Port with a great driver who gave us lots of info about the island. The boat was well prepared and in good condition.
We thoroughly enjoyed enjoyed sailing the islands.
Would definitely use Kefalonia Sailing again and recommend them to anyone wanting to charter.

First class individual, friendly service, family company, the yachts were also in tip top condition a very enjoyable weeks holiday cant wait to come back next year

What a wonderful day on a yacht organised by Spiros from Αγία Ευφημια Το Ιθάκη ( Ayia Effimia to Ithaca )
We stopped four times for a swim and to admire the stunning villages and we could use paddle boards too .
We had a fab lunch /snack provided and as many drinks as we wanted .
Our family had the best time and it was the most memorable trip .
It was a windy day and the sea was a little choppy however Evangelos who was in charge of the Yacht and Evina who helped him made us feel very safe and comfortable and both were very knowledgable told us lots of interesting facts about the islands and the sea .
A great local company
Would thoroughly recommend this company and this trip
It was a great introduction to sailing in the Greek islands

Booked our boat for 2024 direct with Spiros and everything was spot on. It took all of the confusion and coordination of choosing the right boat out of our hands and we had a really fantastic time sailing.

I am back again communicating with Spiros for our holiday to Corfu this year.

Sailing in Kefalonia with Stelios was the highlight of our trip. He was incredibly kind, fun, and always one step ahead—anticipating everything we needed and making us feel safe throughout. He took us to the most stunning spots, including our favorite lunch of the entire trip. The boat was spacious and comfortable, and the water was so vividly blue it felt unreal. Stelios even went out of his way to help us when our payment wouldn’t go through. Truly above and beyond—an unforgettable experience.

Spiros was great and sorted us a great trip in the Ionian islands. Would highly recommend!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our sailing holiday in 2024, every single detail was taken care of and it made the full experience enjoyable from start to finish. All the team were so helpful, personal and a pleasure to deal with. We can’t wait to be back, wouldn’t go anywhere else!

The team were absolutely fantastic and my family and I really enjoyed our sailing trip!

We booked with Spiros at Kefalonia Sailing for what was our first experience of a flotilla holiday. The handover of our Bavaria by the team was seamless.The flotilla was lead by Nick and Coops who gave fantastic support and organisation on knowledge of bays and anchorages and great assistance at port arrival.I enjoyed the week so much that I have booked with Spiros again for June 25

We have reserved 2 weeks of Sailing boat from Sami, kefalonia. The boat was well maintened, the port is in the town near market etc. The checkin time was flexible.
We come back, probably, next year.

We spent an amazing day visiting beaches around Kefalonia accessible only by boat. The captain and crew member were incredibly kind and thoughtful. The boat was beautifully appointed and we felt incredibly well looked after all day. Every detail was taken care of including soft towels, cold drinks, and plenty of snacks and food throughout the day.

It was the highlight of our multi-week trip in Greece and cannot recommend it enough. Every beach was more beautiful than the last and the varied landscape and beach types were wonderful. We dove off cliffs, swam and climbed through beach caves, and swam and snorkeled for hours. Our group enjoyed the paddle board and other amenities on the boat throughout the day.

Our group of 7 included 3 children under 12 (all strong swimmers) count ourselves incredibly lucky to have spent the day with Kefalonia Sailing. Spiros was so kind and helpful during the booking process. No detail forgotten. Highly, highly recommend

We even got to know Spiros personally when we made our first trip around Kefalonia in 2022. He was a great help to me, not only because we always received attractive offers since years, but he and his team were always available and ready to help to all my questions, even when we were on tour or once in an emergency situation.
Spiros and his team do a great job and I can recommend this team to anyone interested in chartering. We know each other for 4 years now and have already chartered our sailing boat through him for the 3rd time, even the next for 2025.

Spiro and his team, were absolutely wonderful, helpful and informative, at all times, from time of booking months ahead, to embarking, the week on board, and disembarking. we chose to dry charter self sail a catamaran.
No question was ever left unanswered. I also found huge savings by booking with them, also allowing a greater choice of craft. The week on board Spiro and staff were always available, to provide assistance or coordinate any matter with the boat owner. we will sail again in Greek waters and will again make those arrangements with Kefalonia Sail. Spiro and team thank you, we wish all the very best and continued success.

Spiros and family at Kefalonia Sailing are highly professional in every way. This includes being immediately reactive and solution-oriented. We chartered a Dufour 390 bareboat for 5 sailors in June 2024 and were helped in our choice amongst the many other options available. We came back as repeat customers having chartered first from them 5 years earlier. We particularly appreciated the direct contact with Spiros as company owner/ director who lives and breathes the boats on that wonderul island of Kefalonia, and not having to deal more anonymously with larger regional or international agencies. We thoroughly recommend this agency, and long already to come again in the future.

Booked direct with Spiros for a flotilla from Lefkas and he couldn’t be more helpful. He replied to all correspondence within 24 hrs and provided an excellent service. We booked two yachts that joined a Seafarer flotilla from Nikiana which was amazing fun with a fabulous lead yacht crew run by Nick and Claire. The cost was considerably cheaper booking through Kefalonia Sailing charters and we will be rebooking for next year. We would definitely recommend them.

We had a great holiday. Everything to do with our yacht charter was perfect.

Have chartered with them on several occasions. Always great service, trustworthy and nothing is too much trouble. Have used the larger charter companies in the past and now no longer do so.

Spiros and the team at Kefalonia Sailing / Severn Sailing & Tourism have been brilliant. Spiros advised us on yacht options, then supported a last minute change we wanted. The transfer from the airport was flawless (even stopping en route to provision) and arrived on time both ways. Babis did our boat check-in and check-out and was exceptionally helpful, polite and efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and are looking forward to Spiros and team supporting our next family sailing holiday.
We chartered a Bavaria 40 Cruiser from Sami on Kefalonia. The boat was well kept and in great order; incl. great features that made a difference to us; large water tanks, two sinks (one for draining!), two heads (one specifically for showering), dual wheel so the children (only 8 & 10 but keen stage 2 & 4 dinghy sailors) could helm while I was ready at the other helm station), easy to use sails, great winches, main sheet track above cabin and chart plotter at helm. All in all a great trip. Thank you also to Vangelis the boat owner, who was instantly available when a question arose! :)
