A truly wasted day, 7 hours of travel for two stops. One of an hour and a half to visit the small town of Paxos and another of 45 minutes for a swim with hundreds of people crowded between the boats. Furthermore, we saw nothing besides one cave. Truly a wasted day!
Very comfortable boat for a cruise in exceptional sites, especially in April when tourism is still limited. The boat goes into the blue caves and it is impressive. I am only giving 3 stars because the music was too loud during the last part of the day, which spoiled the experience after a tiring day when we would have liked to sail back with lounge music... With beer flowing freely and a crowd of connoisseurs, the atmosphere rises quickly and that is not necessarily what we were hoping for... The cruise was, however, interesting for a fair price and good organization.
Crap absolute crap. See Facebook for more details.
perfect weather, amazing destinations, sufficient time to enjoy stops, very friendly staff and guides, comfortable journey
If you want a boat trip to paxos, I recommend this one! After visiting Paxos have a great boat trip back with dance and music!! They have it all to make it a great day!!!! Very satisfied customers❤️
The boat was completely overcrowded. The loudspeaker announcement was very quiet and also the bathing stop was really not long ..due to the way too many passengers on board everything was very hectic and long queues formed at the toilets,..Personally everything looked like tourist handling ,very loveless as long as the boat is full,..the crew members seemed very stressed. Which I can understand very well due to the masses of tourists.. I would not book this tour a second time,..
Beautiful day in the company of a top crew. Theo and the crew led this excursion. Departures are punctual, reservation made at the hotel the day before, time for visits, swimming in Antipaxos, 1 hour, and visit to Paxos, more than 2 hours, more than enough for a 1st approach. The return to musical background and dances, brought a beautiful dynamic. We will keep a very nice memory and the desire to return. Thank you.
Not a bad price, but oh my goodness, a long day with very little time on land. 5 hours after setting sail, we finally got off the boat. It's a huge boat, a day cruiser, so speed is not a thing. We set sail at 8.30am and took a brief look at the caves (boat too big to go in) and then on to Antipaxos. Unless you're swimming, you're not getting off here for the 45 mins we stopped. Then 2 hours on Paxos. That was nice, a typical tourist hot-spot, but not unexpected and rather fun. Then the 3+ hour boat journey back. Oh and no food is provided, so expect to pay €5 for a coffee and €10 for a bit of pizza or a hotdog. The company we booked our trip with told us the itinerary, but didn't explain the amount of time on the boat at all. So not Corfu Cruises fault, but do be mindful of this. I was on the boat trip where a fight broke out amongst guests waiting to board for the return journey home, and kudos to the staff for their response. Still unclear of the exact reason why 8 or 9 guests where punching one another and hurling one another into bins and the floor, and launching stuff into the water, but despite some visible injuries, the crew carried on with the journey home, albeit 25 minutes late. And Bravo for not letting all the brawlers back on the boat. One (fairly calm) group were allowed on ours, one group was taken by the sister boat next door and we watched another group get apprehended by the local police as we sailed away. The crew were rapid in their response to the incident and prevented the fight coming on board.
It is to do but choose a less noisy cruise. And not enough time in paxos. 2/30. Many young people to party with very loud music
We keep a good memory of this cruise, the boat arrived on time at the port of lefkimmi then the journey passed fairly quickly (1h45-2h)The scenery was beautiful. On the way home the captain put on Greek music and danced with the passengers. The only downside was the anti-paxo swim, we had little freedom to swim, and we had to stay around the boat where the whole crowd was. A tip shared, if you want a quieter cruise with the same scenery, head to syvota and the blue lagoon on smaller boats.
