I’m planning a trip to Kefalonia and would love to make the journey as memorable as possible by taking some scenic drives along the way. Whether it’s stunning coastal roads, charming villages, or breathtaking mountain routes, I’m all ears!

If you’ve driven to Kefalonia before, could you share your favorite routes? I’m particularly interested in any must-see stops along the way, great viewpoints, or hidden gems that might be off the beaten path.

Also, any tips on ferry routes or the best times to travel would be greatly appreciated. I’m hoping to capture some amazing photos and make the most of the journey. I heard the island is very beautiful.
