One thing we appreciated most about this excursion was the amount of free time included at each stop. We never felt like we were being hurried from one attraction to the next. Paleokastritsa was easily one of the most beautiful places we visited during our cruise. The views of the coastline and surrounding hills were unforgettable. Corfu Town was equally charming, offering plenty of opportunities to explore hidden streets and admire the architecture. The beach break added another enjoyable dimension to the day, allowing us to relax before returning to the ship. Everything felt well organized and thoughtfully planned.
The whole experience was amazing. From submitting the enquiry to receiving a response to a phone call. Was all done within 24 hours. The lady who booked us was Dimitris. Amazing lady
Our group was looking for a shore excursion that combined sightseeing with a more relaxed pace, and this tour worked perfectly. The transportation was comfortable, and the guide was friendly and informative. Paleokastritsa offered some of the best scenery we saw during our entire trip. Corfu Town was fun to explore, especially the narrow alleyways and historic squares. We also enjoyed having some time at the beach, which made the day feel less rushed. The combination of locations provided a nice overview of the island, and we returned to the ship feeling like we had truly experienced Corfu.
As a couple, we found this tour to be a very enjoyable way to explore Corfu. Our guide was friendly and engaging, which made the experience even better. It all ran smoothly from start to finish, especially with the timing from the cruise port.
A very nice day in Corfu. Everything was organized and crisp, and our tour guide Vasia (sp) did a great job of providing a commentary as we drove about the area. She was very clear about where we were going, what we were going to do, when to meet back up, and what our options were (ex. if you don't want to go on the boat trip, you can go swimming or hand out on the beach). The boat trip to see the caves was fun - the water in Corfu is beautiful around the coastal area. I strongly suggest spending the 15 euros per person and going on the boat. Old Town Corfu is beautiful - one of the prettiest ones we saw on our cruise of the Greek islands. In summary: a very nice day on a well-orchestrated tour of Corfu.
It wasn’t well described in the narrative. Would have liked more time to have lunch and a beverage. Tour guide was not interesting.
The tour was delivered exactly as advertised; all listed sites were covered. No lunch or beverages are included. The guide is a certified professional with 16 years of experience and a large collection of glowing reviews. Some travelers’ expectations can be puzzling. For future bookings, we strongly recommend basing expectations on the tour description and inclusions rather than personal assumptions. Safe travels.
We really did enjoy this tour. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and we certainly enjoyed listening to her throughout. She gave us a lovely introduction to Corfu and its history. This, together with the different sites that we visited - in particular the beach and the skyview terrace - made this tour very memorable, even for my young daughter. We would definitely recommend this tour for individuals and families alike.
It was very well organized but not long enough ! It was very rushed. Had to eat within our 1hour and 30 min of seeing the town . And we only had 1 hour to either go see the sea cave on a boat ride or swim. We couldn’t do both
Very good guide and great insight to the Island.Loved seeing the town,beach and people. Learned about the history of the area.
Very disappointed in this tour. Tour guide rushed through the entire tour, and places advertised in the pictures were not included. Misleading and disappointing.
We regret to hear that our tour did not meet your expectations. Regarding the concerns you raised: 1. This tour is specifically designed for cruise passengers with limited time ashore. While air visitors are welcome to join from the cruise terminal, please keep in mind that the tour operates at a moderate pace due to the cruise ship’s visit schedule. 2. We strongly recommend basing your expectations on the itinerary and tour description rather than on pictures or personal assumptions. Safe travels!
