Customer Reviews
On our second-to-last day in Kefalonia, we caught an extremely rainy day, so we decided to look for some indoor activities. That’s how we ended up visiting this cave — and even though it’s quite small, it has a certain charm and beauty to it. We really enjoyed the experience! 6€/pers.
The Drogarati Cave is a feature just outside Sami. It costs about €7 to enter. Visitors buy their tickets in a broad reception area and then follow a path down to the cave entrance. There was a sign saying no photographs, so I didn’t take any.. The cave is huge and there are concrete steps that lead visitors to points of interest and on a roundabout tour. It’s ~18°C inside. The steps are all covered in carpet to help visitors not slip. Nonetheless, we did spot one person go over. Lighting was good, but a bit harsh in places. The way back up to the surface seemed quite long, but the handrails helped. There was a good deal of puffing and panting from the older visitors when they reached the top. Car parking was provided by a neighbouring cafe, that had a pool and looked really good. Worth the visit, if you don’t mind steps.
The Drogarati Caves in Kefalonia are truly impressive and worth a visit if you enjoy natural wonders and underground landscapes. Estimated to be over 150 million years old, the cave is filled with stalactites and stalagmites forming fascinating shapes. The atmosphere is cool and quiet, giving it a magical feel, and the size of the main chamber is surprising—it has even been used for concerts thanks to its incredible acoustics. The pathways are well marked and the visit is quite manageable, though you should be prepared for some steep steps when entering and exiting. A unique experience that adds something different to your time on the island.
