Best excursion of our trip — personalized, seamless, and unforgettable!
This was our first time booking an excursion independently rather than through our cruise, and it turned out to be the best decision of the whole trip. From the moment we booked, communication was excellent, clear, responsive, and reassuring every step of the way.
The day itself was even better. It felt completely personalized rather than a generic tour, with great local tips along the way that made everything feel effortless and special. As a family of five, we worried logistics might be tricky, but everything worked out perfectly.
Special thanks to Elena and Stefanos for going above and beyond to make our day in Corfu so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!

Our Driver was super friendly; traffic is bad around the beach areas; we did the boat ride at the first beach; we did the beach sofa option at the next beach; it was expensive but overall we had a great time

Overall, we had a good time. Communication before the excursion was great. Our driver was not engaging.
Overall it was a good experience.
We needed more time at the beach and perhaps time in old town. Communication before the excursion was amazing. Once we were on the bus, the drivers communication was limited, our driver was not engaged and seemed to be ready for the excursion to be over.

Spiro was our driver and...
Spiro was our driver and tour guide. He took us to a short boat and cave tour, followed by a visit to Glyfada beach for the afternoon. Our tour was to stop at 12:45, but our kids enjoyed the beach so much we were able to stay an additional 2 hours. It was easy to extend. Spiro was easy going and accommodating.

Paleokastritsa was...
Paleokastritsa was beautiful but very crowded so we opted to spend additional time at Glyfada per driver's recommendation. We were not disappointed, reserved sun bed and umbrella with easy access to water and beach club.

Both beaches we visited...
Both beaches we visited were beautiful, and our teen was excited to experience Pazzuzu - she was not disappointed. The real difference, though, was our driver, Dimitris. He was so passionate about Corfu, knew everything about it, and made us fall a little bit in love with the island. A true gentleman we would want to visit with again.

Great driver! Flawless service!
We last minute booked the day before our arrival to Corfu and everything still went flawlessly! We were picked up at the port by a driver and then he took us to Paleokinisto. We took a very resonablly priced boat ride on a classic wooden boat with 6 other people around the caves, saw the area where A View To a Kill was partially filmed, and the beautiful waters and lots of sea bass (optional additional cost of 15 E pp). After that we were driven around the island to Galyfa beach. We got 2 beach chairs, and an umbrella on the beach (optional additional cost) for 2 and a half hours, had lunch and some drinks, and then he dropped us off at Old Town as we requested. He was pleasant and informative!
I’d definitely recommend!

My mom and I had an amazing private excursion on this beautiful island! We couldn’t have asked for a better driver! He shared so many things about his home and truly introduced us to the beauty of Corfu while making us feel pampered! If you are traveling to Corfu, I wouldn’t hesitate to book this wonderful excursion in order to make your time in Corfu magical!!
