Review ◦ We had the exact same experience as David from June 2026 and were very disappointed. We expected this to be a true hop-on, hop-off tour from the beginning, but the first stop was far away for a 45-minute visit to a museum garden and then a long ride back to town so almost 2 1/2 hours with one stop. We had no other option given besides starting with the harder tour. ◦ Unfortunately, at the other stops, the buses were consistently full, so we realized it would be nearly impossible to hop back on. We had also purchased the additional route, but never used it because the lines at the stop were so long that we were worried we wouldn’t make it back to our cruise ship on time. ◦ Overall, this was a very frustrating experience and did not deliver the flexibility you expect from a hop-on, hop-off tour.
Dear Nancy, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your City Sightseeing Corfu experience. We are sorry to learn that the tour did not meet your expectations. We understand how disappointing it must have been to experience limited flexibility during your visit and to feel unable to make the most of your ticket. We appreciate you sharing your comments, as feedback such as yours is invaluable in helping us review and improve the experience we provide to our customers.
The concept is good however they sold so many tickets for the hop on and off bus tour and didn’t have enough buses running to accommodate. We stayed at one spot for an hour waiting on a bus after 5 buses passed with no room. The problem was at a few of the stops nobody was getting off the bus so when they stopped there were no seats. Good concept just need to add more buses or only give out a certain amount of tickets per day to accommodate the buses you have running.
Dear Colleen, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with City Sightseeing Corfu. We are pleased to hear that you appreciate the concept of our hop-on hop-off bus tour, but we are truly sorry that your experience was affected by the high demand on the day of your visit. We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait for an extended period while several buses arrived without available seats. During peak periods, some services can experience exceptionally high passenger numbers, which may unfortunately impact availability at certain stops. Your suggestions regarding bus capacity and ticket allocation are greatly appreciated. Feedback like yours is extremely valuable, and we will share your comments with our local operations team as they continually evaluate ways to improve the City Sightseeing Corfu experience and better accommodate guests during busy times. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with the enjoyable and seamless sightseeing experience we strive to deliver.

Got on bus at the port with my wheelchair user son and husband, waited ages before the bus left. Sat in traffic then driven through the rough backstreets to first stop . We got off at stop 5 and walked through the old town. Tried to get back on at stop 6 only to be told we couldn't because of the wheelchair even though it was the same bus we got off. Very rude staff , had to wait for the double decker and everyone else pushed pass . We got on and the driver shouted at us to sit but the only seats were upstairs. Lucky some people moved so we could sit with our son . When I complained to the company I was told that it hadn't happened like that and I was told about the wheelchair but I wasn't because we wouldn't have bothered. Very rude staff and very rubbish tour. Compared to Berlin it was awful. The staff there couldn't be more helpful.
Bus went to popular places. We got off and when we returned to bus stop, never waited more than 10 min to board again. Audio was unintelligible on one bus but good on the others

My confirmed ticket could not be scanned once I reached the Old Fort by Maria. I walk with a cane and was exhausted and very frustrated that the bar code couldn’t scan. I wasted my money on this tour. I hope to have better luck on Friday but I am considering canceling and book with someone else here in Benitses. In the past I had great experience with VIATOR I am so disappointed. I hope my birthday excursion is better than today!
Thank you for sharing your experience with your City Sightseeing Corfu hop-on hop-off bus tour. We are very sorry to hear about the issue you experienced at the Old Fort stop, especially given that you were travelling with a cane and already feeling exhausted. We fully understand how frustrating it must have been that your QR code could not be scanned. In this case, we would like to clarify that your ticket was purchased through a third-party platform (Viator), and sometimes the format or activation process of these tickets can differ from direct bookings, which may affect initial scanning at certain validation points. However, this should not prevent a smooth boarding experience, and we regret the inconvenience this caused you. We will still share your feedback with the local City Sightseeing Corfu operations team so they can review the scanning process and improve coordination with third-party ticket providers to avoid similar situations in the future. We are sorry that this affected such a special day for you, and we truly hope your next ride on Friday is much smoother and more enjoyable as part of your hop-on hop-off sightseeing experience in Corfu.
The add on trip to the beach at Palaiokastritsa was amazing, but didn’t leave a lot of time to explore the rest of Corfu on the hop on hop off bus. We knew that going in and were OK with it but keep it in mind if you book the beach excursion plus the HOHO Bus. Our tour guide was fantastic and we really enjoyed the beach at Palaiokastritsa. They have sunbeds available for 15€ each and it includes a 15€ food and beverage credit making the lounger essentially free if you were going to buy any food or drinks! After the beach, we returned to stop 6 on the red line and explored the old town before heading back to our cruise ship. If you are in Corfu for more than one day, this tour is a great value as the bus ticket is good for 24 hours. Overall, we really enjoyed this tour!
Hi Geoffrey_C, Thank you so much for your detailed and positive review of your City Sightseeing Corfu Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour 😊🚍 We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Palaiokastritsa Beach excursion and that the tour guide helped make your experience even better. It’s great to know you had time to relax at the beach and later explore Corfu Old Town as well. 🌊🏛️ We also really appreciate your helpful feedback for future travellers regarding timing when combining the beach excursion with the hop-on hop-off service — this kind of insight is very valuable. We’re very happy you had such an enjoyable overall experience and hope to welcome you again soon for another City Sightseeing adventure! Best regards, Quality Department
This hoho bus goes to the very unattractive part of Corfu. There were no stops that interested us. Would not recommend

We thought this would be hop on and off from the beginning. The first stop was 45 minutes to a museum and we weren’t given the option to not go. We sat outside the bus and waited the 45 minutes for the bus to leave. At the other stops, you couldn’t get on the bus because they were always full. Very frustrating.
