Excellent, Katrina was...
Excellent, Katrina was engaging, fun, knowledgeable and gave great sightseeing recommendations!! Take advantage of the boat tour around the caves well worth the 15 Euros, you will not be disappointed
via Viator
Excellent tour guide and...
Excellent tour guide and new and comfortable bus. Directions to locate the bus was too general and the pinned map provided to us, was not the location of the bus causing us to be delayed. We are used to Viator having a sign up for travelers. That said once we started the tour it was very good and highly recommended.

Worth it
A great way to see the island and gain some insight into local life. Tour guide, Fay, excellent. Boat trip to caves good. More free time at the end would have been better
via Viator
Pricey but nicey!
Faye was an excellent tour guide. Very pricey, realizing the majority of the cost was the transportation. But really good excursion and loved the $15eu boat ride. Recommend!
via Tripadvisor
Beautiful!
This was a great tour of Corfu. The driver picked us at our cruise port and drove us to a beach where we went on a 45 minute (estimated) boat tour which was absolutely beautiful. After the tour we had free time to explore the town before returning to our cruise ship. This excursion is perfect for tourist traveling by cruise ship.

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
