Excellent tour with Zita! She was very knowledgeable about Corfu. Also wifi on the tour bus. I would recommend it.
Our guide, Angela, was very informative! I only wish we had the headphones for this activity as in the crowds at the palace we were not always able to hear her well. We were allowed time in the city for shopping and given excellent history of the area.
Excellent shore excursion. Our guide's English was excellent and she was both knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the island. Much better than the typical ship's shore excursion. Group was small (we were 4 out of 10 total) and we were able to came and go much more quickly than a whole bus full of people. It may cost a little more, but is well worth it.
Maria our guide was on time and provided our group the fastest way to the Achilleion Palace. Along the way telling us all about Corfu’s history and present day life there. She guided us through the city to all the sites and recommended the best restaurant overlooking the sea.
Great guide to and from. Nice place with views and historical significance. Self guided tour. Bring ID for headsets.....
Driver was not tour guide At Palace we were given headphones with prerecorded tour-live guide would have been better Old town was great-needed more time there so we stayed on our own and walked back to ship walk back was about 30 minutes
Our guide....supplied us with great info and laughter. This is a lovely tour .....the history, the palace and scenery are captivating.
Not a lot to see in Corfu but Ines made it interesting. The Palace was fine as was the walk around Old Town. Good tour. Dick c
Excellent guide with a great sites to see. We had only 2 in our group so it really was a private tour. Our guide included a stop at the liquor factory and an olive oil tasting which were really neat and allowed us to get some local gifts from the area
some confusion over where to meet tour guide and bus at cruise terminal, but once underway, an enjoyable tour with a very knowledgeable guide.
