But first you'll swing by two of Lefkada's stunning beaches – Egremmi and Porto Katsiki – for some free time to swim and sunbathe. Afterwards, you'll sail to Fiskardo on the northern tip of Kefalonia, often dubbed the St Tropez of Greece.Enjoy some free time to meander around and have a coffee by the water before casting off for nearby Ithaca island – homeland of mythical Odysseus, the man who built the Trojan horse – for some more time on a pristine beach.
