We had such a lovely day with Mr. S. What we appreciated most was that he took us beyond the usual tourist spots and showed us some real hidden gems. The places he chose felt much more authentic and special, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. He also recommended a restaurant for us, and it turned out to be one of the best meals we had during our trip — delicious food, a wonderful view, and a really memorable atmosphere. Mr. S was friendly, thoughtful and clearly knew the island very well. We really felt that he wanted us to experience a more local and beautiful side of Corfu. Thank you for such a memorable day!

A massive thank you to George and his driver. George is such a lovely guy, full of information on the island of Corfu and its culture and funny too. Everything ran to schedule without feeling rushed. If you want to see a little of Corfu then this is the tour for you… 5 1/2 hours was enough for what we wanted. I would book another tour without a shadow of doubt. Thank you
