The best boat trip!
Excellent experience! Boat is lovely, the route is a perfect mix of history, picture spots, relaxation, and swimming. The boat is super accommodating with everything you need from food, drinks, towels etc. Thanos our captain was great, and took really good care of us. Couldn't recommend this more!

An Unforgettable Day in Corfu! Highlight of Our Cruise
Overall Experience
We booked this tour as a cruise excursion during our port day in Corfu, and it was hands down the highlight of our trip! We were a family group of 6 adults, had a fabulous time, and loved every second. It’s a stunning way to see the island and enjoy the gorgeous Ionian Sea. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone and would book it again in a heartbeat!
Our Captain
Captain Kostas was amazing—extremely knowledgeable, wonderfully personable, and a absolute joy to be with. He tailored the day to our pace, offered fantastic suggestions for spots to visit, provided great commentary throughout, and cooked us a delicious lunch.
Pro-Tips for Cruise Passengers
Taxi Cost: The marina is a quick 15-minute drive from the cruise port, but keep taxi budgets in mind. For our group of 6, a larger van cost around €140 round trip.
Pre-Arrange Return Transport: The sailboat pier doesn't have taxi ranks or cabs waiting around. Be sure to coordinate a set pick-up time with your driver when they drop you off in the morning!

Boat ride for cruise passengers
We took the trip from our cruise ship which was really easy. The marina was a shirt taxi ride away and the captain was there to meet us. The boat was great and as the weather was warm the sea breeze was very welcome. We enjoyed swimming in the sea and enjoyed both stops that we made. The view of Corfu was great, we saw a different side to the Old Town. Lunch was provided which kept us going and there were plenty of drinks.

Great day out
Excellent trip. We were a family adult group of 8. Skipper (I’m sorry I can’t spell the name) looked after us very well; very friendly and knowledgable about Corfu history. We enjoyed sailing along the coast with beautiful locations to stop and swim and snorkel for as long as we liked. Plenty of drinks available and sandwiches and crisps. Thoroughly recommend.

Private yacht! Great way to see Corfu!
Such a great way to spend an afternoon in Corfu. It was just the two of us but the boat could comfortably fit 8 total guests. Captain Spero was knowledgeable and gave us a great history of the island. Swimming off the yacht in the Ionian Sea was refreshing as the water temps were perfect. Beer, wine, soft drinks and lunch were nice. Thank you.

Amazing experience!
We did an eight hour charter which took us along the east side of Corfu, and we had a fantastic experience! Our skipper, Ortemis, was extremely personable, provided excellent historical information about the island, as well as helpful tips for travelling around it. We loved being able to swim in locations accessible only by boat, and were super happy we were able to do that at multiple locations. The food at the taverna where he brought us for lunch was absolutely delicious, and had a lovely view over the water. He also provided an excellent playlist of music for our sail. We would do this again without hesitation! We definitely recommend!!
