An excellent introduction to Corfu - Short trip to Palaiokastritsa through beautiful countryside. The driver’s skill on narrow mountain roads was spectacular and the guide was kind, cheerful and informative.

Beautiful place - Very nice tour. Take motion sick meds if you are prone to it. The bus goes up through the mountains and the scenery is beautiful

A comprehensive half day tour. - There were several parts to this trip and all were very good although quite crowded. We started with a small boat trip along the rocky cliffs and caves which was pleasant but not outstanding. The views on the drive to and from our restaurant snack stop were amazing. Our driver was very skilled and managed the tricky roads very well. Our guide was knowledgable and efficient with managing the guests. She continued guiding the group even off the bus for the last part in the Old Town. We added lunch and a visit to the old fort before returning to our cruise ship.

An incredible experience - The driver was incredible. 25 hairpin turns up the 1000' mountainside. This guy was threading a needle with a long large tour bus. The guide was informative and very good

Go to Corfu but skip this tour - Corfu is amazing and I highly recommend going. This tour not so much. Soft spoken guide you could hear on the amplified bus but otherwise not at all. Information we could hear was monotone and disjointed. Tour was supposed to be 4 hours but was 5.5 instead. Extra time spent doing unnecessary shopping we could easily have done on our own. Meh.

This tour did not live up... - This tour did not live up to the explanation of the tour.
The reason we booked the tour is so we could do the boat ride to the caves. It doesn’t even run when we took the tour. It would have been good to know as we would have booked a different tour.
The bus ride into the mountain was not relaxing.
