Charitos Custom Private Tour: Put the Route, Guide and Vehicle in Writing

The defining feature of this four- to eight-hour private service is pre-trip design with the operator. That flexibility is valuable only when the final plan identifies what is being supplied. A driver, a licensed guide, admissions and meal arrangements are different services; a friendly driver who shares local knowledge is not a substitute for a promised professional guide.
Send a brief that can become an itinerary
State the pickup point, hard return time, passenger count, mobility needs and two main interests. Then ask for a written route with approximate travel and stop durations. “Palaces, monasteries, villages and restaurants” describes possibilities, not a feasible day. Four hours may support one outlying attraction plus town; eight hours allow a coherent region and longer visits.
Confirm who will meet the group
The current product page describes a local guide and lists private guiding, yet verified feedback includes occasions when customers travelled with a driver or a guide cancelled. Ask for the guide’s language and licensing status, whether the driver is separate, and what happens if the named guide becomes unavailable. This matters most when the plan includes historical interpretation inside protected sites.
Separate transport from variable costs
Hotel or port pickup is included. Entrance charges, food and drinks are outside the base service, and optional stops such as local boat rides add both cost and time. The product is marked wheelchair accessible, but that badge cannot guarantee step-free access at every custom venue. Confirm the vehicle, wheelchair type and chosen sites as one accessibility chain.
Use the Corfu transport guide to challenge unrealistic drive times. If the group prefers a fixed four-hour outline, compare the Best of Corfu minibus route.
