We booked this for our day in Corfu and liked the balance between organized sightseeing and having some time to enjoy the island ourselves. The boat trip was peaceful and gave us some beautiful views, while the old town had a completely different atmosphere with its narrow streets and historic buildings. Our guide was knowledgeable but also gave us space to enjoy the experience as a couple. Everything from the cruise pier pickup to the return was handled smoothly. We particularly appreciated having a professional driver because it meant we could relax instead of thinking about directions and timing. The whole day felt comfortable and well paced rather than rushed.
Marya was amazing, she took good care of the group, informative and spoke very good English. I enjoyed it very much
Traveling with friends, we wanted something that wasn't just a standard sightseeing drive, and this worked well for us. The boat portion was probably the highlight because it gave us a different view of Corfu and made the day feel more varied. We also enjoyed walking around the old town and having some free time to look around, grab something to eat, and take photos. Our guide knew the area well and was happy to answer questions along the way. Pickup and drop-off at the cruise pier were convenient, and we never felt like we were constantly watching the clock. The air-conditioned vehicle was comfortable between stops. A really enjoyable way to see several sides of Corfu in one cruise day.
Corfu! We spent the day enjoying the beautiful beaches, while our sons had a blast on the double tube ride. Bring water shoes it is very rocky! It was a great way for everyone to have some fun and enjoy the water. We also had time to explore the town, which gave us a nice mix of relaxation, adventure, and sightseeing. It was a fun and memorable day for our family, and a great way to experience Corfu!
As a solo traveler arriving by cruise ship, I wanted an excursion where I wouldn't have to figure out transportation and timing by myself. The pickup at the cruise pier was convenient, and the day was easy to follow from start to finish. I enjoyed the combination of the boat trip and walking through Corfu Old Town because they offered two very different experiences. The local guide was approachable and shared useful information about the places we visited. Transportation was clean and comfortable, especially with the air conditioning. I also liked knowing there was a flexible cancellation policy when making the reservation. For a solo cruise passenger, it was a simple and enjoyable way to experience Corfu.
This tour was just the right amount of everything. Just a taste of beach and old town. Comfortable van and a great guide.
Great option to go to a beautiful beach (note it can be very crowded) and Old Town. We ended up staying in old town, but it was very easy to get a bus back for 2 euros and the tour guide showed us how to do it
It feels like a very personal service. We have booked a few times now & always had a great service with Elena. Always keeping in touch & updating us & especially patient when I have had to move dates, etc. Also a great price too, would thoroughly recommend. Thanks again to Elena.
The only issue was we didn’t know what bus to get on.. Viator didn’t let us know we were with Jat Tours. Luckily the tour guide called us.
The staff is always friendly & attentive to my needs. Service is always great! The agents are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help with any questions and concerns. I really appreciate how they take the time to understand what I am looking for. Their communication and attention to detail makes me feel confident throughout the entire booking process and I feel well taken care of as a customer.
