Wonderfully narrated private tour of Corfu. We were given time to shop in old town, and picked up and returned to our ship right on schedule. Highly recommend!

We thoroughly enjoy our time with Marios. He conveniently picked us up at the door of our lodging with a very comfortable vehicle with cold water bottles waiting for us. He discussed the possible route (s)with us before heading out on a fantastic drive across to the north west side of Corfu and back. Marios was an excellent driver flexible with stops and starts for drink breaks and photo opportunities as we travelled from one beautiful and historic sight to another all while answering questions and sharing information! Running much longer than the advertised 3 hours we all felt it was a perfect tour to see just a wonderful slice of this amazing island. Bring extra money as there are a couple places to stop and buy local goods and an optional boat ride to see breathtaking shoreline and caves. We all highly recommend this tour!!
