    Greek history

    Rita_S, Apr 2026
    Ariti was the most fantastic guide. She gave us a great history of the area and culture. It was so informative. The weather was lovely. She also was able to recommend where to eat and we’re not to eat, which was very helpful. She was so warm and kind. It was a pleasure to spend the day with her.

    Electra made this walking tour very interesting and was extremely personable and knowledgeable, there were 4 of us in the small group, she kept us in the shade as much as possible, highly recommended

    Fantastic small group tour. First half was me and my family only. Our guide was delightful, and gave us great information about the history of Corfu as well as what it’s like to live there in modern day.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    It seemed a little pricey...

    Gary_T, Jun 2025
    It seemed a little pricey when I booked the tour, but it was excellent value for money and really informative. Corfu old town is a delightful place and if you can fit in a trip to Kanoni afterwards it’ll be a great day.

    Wonderful morning

    Sally_C, May 2025
    Loved this tour. Ariti was so informative and interesting to talk to. We learnt so much on our morning with her. Even if you've been to Corfu/Greece before there is still so much to find out about this beautiful island

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure spending the morning with you and sharing some of Corfu’s hidden stories and history. I'm so glad you enjoyed the experience—even for returning visitors, there's always more to uncover on this beautiful island. Wishing you safe travels and hope to see you again someday!

    We were in Corfu in...

    David_I, Apr 2025
    We were in Corfu in April, which is early in the tourist season. We had the tour guide all to ourselves for the three hours of the tour. The island is lovely and the tour was great. Our guide was a history teacher and she was well informed and very professional as well as friendly. The tour was a walking tour so be prepared for being on your feet the entire time.

    Outstanding Walking Tour of Corfu!

    RandyNored, Oct 2024
    Alice, our tour guide, was outstanding! Wonderful personality, professional, and an expert on Corfu. We enjoyed every minute if our 3-hour walk about Old Corfu town with her! Couldn't have been better!

    Very enjoyable experience

    James_S, Oct 2024
    Excellent, comprehensive, entertaining, and personable. I felt right at home and what was discussed brought to light my base knowledge plus added many new details.

    Well worth it! Very good tour.

    Fiona_O, Sep 2024
    Nausica was a fantastic guide. She is elegant, warm, friendly, witty, funny and extremely well informed. Her English is perfect and she speaks other languages fluently also. The tour was worth every penny. I feel I know Corfu much better now. Would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this. There were 3 of us. My husband and I and an adult son. Thanks Nausica (from your Irish friends!)

    Fantastic Experience

    Chris_A, Aug 2024
    Nausica was fantastic in very way including lunch recommendations. The walk is fairly easy to make for most people, and the time goes by rather quickly—especially with Nausica’s personality and interaction.

    Amazing walking tour of Corfu Old Town

    Rebecca_L, Aug 2024
    We had a fantastic walking tour of Corfu Old Town with our guide Alkistis (Alice) who was great fun, friendly, knowledgable, and gave us a great local's insight to Corfu. She even took us to her favourite locals spot for Greek coffee on the way. You can tell how passionate and knowledgable she is! Thank you again Alice xxx

    Great experience

    Edie_D, Jul 2024
    Our guide was amazing! Debbie was born in this town and her roots go deep. She was so knowledgeable and made the history come alive for us. Corfu is lovely and has loads of nice shops along the ancient streets. We had a great time!

    Response from Host, Aug 2024

    Thank you so much for choosing us and spent a day with us. Debbie also enjoyed the day with you and we hope to see you again in the near future. Happy travels

    Great Experience

    Evan_R, Jul 2024
    Electra was great! Very knowledgeable about the island and the city and had a great personality. Corfu was hot in July but she made sure we were shaded as much as possible. Would recommend this tour if you are short on time or want a well rounded intro to the area and its history.

    Response from Host, Aug 2024

    Thank you so much for choosing usand trusted our local business to spend your day in Corfu Old Town. We are very happy that you had a nice day with Electra. This July was indeed one of the hottest of the last years. Once again thank you for your trust and we wish you all the best and happy travels.

    A must do in Corfu Town!!

    Deborah_M, Jun 2024
    Electra was an absolute joy to spend an evening with, learning about the history of her town. Beautiful person inside and out. Our private tour was expertly curated through all points of the town. Her pace and delivery allowed for a relaxing but thorough experience. Our Saturday evening had all the locals out. She is obviously a beloved fixture in town by the greetings throughout our walk. Heartwarming experience. I highly recommend this tour at any opportunity. I was able to do this the first evening in town and it set a perfect foundation of historical, logistical, and connection that permeated the days that followed. Thank you Electra!

    A great interesting history of Corfu!

    Pedro_C, Mar 2024
    Easily took the taxi to the meeting place. As it’s a small group tour there’s only 6 people. Learned a lot about the history of Corfu. There’s a lot of walking and I don’t recommend teenagers going for this tour as they get bored listening to the history and start acting out and become a distraction for others.

    Relaxing tour around the city

    Malcolm_M, Jun 2023
    Very relaxing tour around the town by a local that brought the town's history to life. Great to see the Italian influence throughout the streets.

    Lovely Corfu Town Tour

    Martin_V, Jun 2023
    Excellent, private tour around Corfu town. Got to wander around this beautiful town at our own pace and learn more about the culture, food and history. Highly recommend.

    Wonderful experience!

    Michelle_F, May 2023
    Ariti was wonderful and shared so much information and warmth with us! We learned so much and she was so eager to answer our questions and share her wisdom. We whole-heartedly recommend this tourto learn more about Corfu and Greece!

    Amazing tour and guide in Corfu!!

    Rita_M, May 2023
    Our tour guide, Debbie, was incredible! She was very knowledgeable about the sites and history of Corfu. We learned so much!! She went at a great pace and regularly checked with all of us to make sure she was covering the areas we wanted to learn about. Just a lovely and warm person.

    Kerkira o Corfu un lugar inolvidable

    Jos_C, Aug 2023
    Nos ha encantado la visita al fuerte antiguo, viendo la huella veneciana y británica. La visita a la ciudad, los vestigios franceses, el barrio judío, la huella de los bombardeos nazis, etc.. Nuestra guía, Náussica ha sido encantadora, agradable y grandísima conocedora de la historia, costumbres y patrimonio de Corfú. Además nos ha enseñado comida típica de Corfú que estaba riquísima. Recomendamos sin ninguna duda la visita con Naussica. Ha sido una visita 10.
