Perfect day in Corfu! - Vicky and Yannis were wonderful making sure every detail was covered. We were a family of 10 with two small children (3 & 4). Our driver arrived on time to pick us up at our cruise port fully equipped with car seats as previously arranged by Vicky. We had the choice of staying at the beach in Paleokastritsa, going to a monastery or taking a boat ride through the caves. We chose the boat ride and as you can see from our pictures, it was by far the perfect choice. The boat took us to the caves where the water was the most amazing combination of colors. It was the highlight of this excursion. Vicky had reserved sunbeds for us at a resort on Glyfada beach but notified us the day before that the owner of the resort chose to close. Vicky and Yannis made sure to come up with a different plan. We were disappointed at the change in plans but understood it was out of their control. They made sure we still had time to relax at another beach. Yannis even met us at the cruise port to make sure we found our driver. Now that's customer service!

Corfu - Booked blue tours when we arrived in corfu Greece on cruise ship. Was promptly picked up when we arrived into port. The 15 passenger van was beautiful and driver was friendly. Went to paleokastritsa beach where we went on boat ride to caves and Glyfada Beach to swim. Communication with tour group was excellent all my questions were answered right away, it was a great day and highly recommend

Relaxing beach tour with professional service! - Our beach tour in Corfu with our driver Stephen was fantastic! The driver was friendly, knowledgeable, and took us to some of the most stunning beaches on the island, Paleokastritsa and Glyfada. The convenience of having a dedicated driver allowed us to relax and enjoy the scenery without worrying about transportation. Highly recommended for a stress-free beach day in Corfu!

Vicky was so helpful! - I booked a tour with Blue Tours in Corfu to take me and my 11 family members to Paleokastritsa beach from the cruise ship port. I worked with Vicky. She was extremely helpful in getting vans lined up to take us to the beach. She gave instructions on where to meet and what to expect when we got there. Unfortunately, the cruise ship cancelled our port. I was able to get a refund from them. I would highly recommend using them. I am very disappointed not to be able to see Corfu.

Excellent Company - Unfortunately, our cruise ship decided to change our itinerary and we are unable to go to Corfu. We had booked a Blue Tours excursion (Glyfada Beach and Corfu Town) and Yannis and Vicky responded very quickly to ALL of our questions. They helped us reserve sunbeds and umbrellas at the Pazuzu Beach Bar in Glyfada Beach.
I contacted Blue Tours after the change and they responded quickly and the same day gave us our full refund. Wonderful and trustworthy company.

Excellent and Quick Communication - Our cruise ship, NCL Epic, was SUPPOSED to stop here HOWEVER NCL decided to change their itinerary and stop at another Port. We never visited Corfu or did this tour unfortunately.
We had booked a Blue Tours excursion (Glyfada Beach and Corfu Town) and Yannis and Vicky responded very quickly to ALL of our questions…and I had a lot of questions. They even helped us reserve sunbeds and umbrellas at the Pazuzu Beach Bar in Glyfada Beach.
Unfortunately once we heard about NCL’s change to our itinerary, I contacted Blue Tours and, as usual, they responded quickly and the same day gave us our full refund.
EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION!!!
After reading about Corfu and doing my research, me and my family were VERY EXCITED and really wanted to visit Corfu.
My wife wants to go to Corfu in the future and we will definitely use Blue Tours next time.

Great Tour Company - We were unable to go on our tour as the cruise line changed our itinerary and Corfu is no longer a stop. With that being said, they were awesome to work with! There communication was second to none . They answered all my questions promptly and with great detail (I always have a ton of questions). I'm really sad we wont be able to do this tour. I was very much looking forward to it. If you're in Corfu don't hesitate to book with them!

Corfu beaches and caves - We enjoyed our tour of corfu. Greg did a nice little tour of the island and we got to go onto a boat that toured paleokastritsa caves which was very beautiful. Last we spent several hours at Glyfada beach where we rented chairs and an umbrella and there was still a little snack bar open down the beach. The water was beautiful, a good temperature and crystal clear. Lastly we had Greg drop us off in town so we could explore corfu town as well. We enjoyed our time in Corfu and would recommend this excursion
