We let our guide.take the lead but we were able to see and experience Corfu away for the ship and other vacationers.

Spiro was our driver and tour guide. He took us to a short boat and cave tour, followed by a visit to Glyfada beach for the afternoon. Our tour was to stop at 12:45, but our kids enjoyed the beach so much we were able to stay an additional 2 hours. It was easy to extend. Spiro was easy going and accommodating.

Paleokastritsa was beautiful but very crowded so we opted to spend additional time at Glyfada per driver's recommendation. We were not disappointed, reserved sun bed and umbrella with easy access to water and beach club.

Both beaches we visited were beautiful, and our teen was excited to experience Pazzuzu - she was not disappointed. The real difference, though, was our driver, Dimitris. He was so passionate about Corfu, knew everything about it, and made us fall a little bit in love with the island. A true gentleman we would want to visit with again.

We last minute booked the day before our arrival to Corfu and everything still went flawlessly! We were picked up at the port by a driver and then he took us to Paleokinisto. We took a very resonablly priced boat ride on a classic wooden boat with 6 other people around the caves, saw the area where A View To a Kill was partially filmed, and the beautiful waters and lots of sea bass (optional additional cost of 15 E pp). After that we were driven around the island to Galyfa beach. We got 2 beach chairs, and an umbrella on the beach (optional additional cost) for 2 and a half hours, had lunch and some drinks, and then he dropped us off at Old Town as we requested. He was pleasant and informative!
I’d definitely recommend!

My mom and I had an amazing private excursion on this beautiful island! We couldn’t have asked for a better driver! He shared so many things about his home and truly introduced us to the beauty of Corfu while making us feel pampered! If you are traveling to Corfu, I wouldn’t hesitate to book this wonderful excursion in order to make your time in Corfu magical!!

The self guided monastery tour was the perfect little taste of history, religion, and culture. Then we were on to Glyfada. The beach was amazing. Plenty of chairs (only one ship in port), clean and felt perfectly safe. Nice restaurant and bar with bathrooms close by. Our driver was wonderful. Courteous and knowledgeable, and fun & easy to talk with.

On time, friendly boat tour was terrific wish we would’ve had more time.
Beach club was mid but the bartender was super sweet.

This was a great private tour that avoided big crowds and made our trip to Paleokastritsa and Glyfada beaches very enjoyable. It was well organized from the beginning with the tour operator messaging me with clear instructions on where to meet our driver and what to expect for the day. She pre booked sun beds for us at Glyfada beach and arranged for a boat trip to tour the caves in Paleokastritsa. Everything went very smoothly.
Our driver took us to each beach and made sure we knew where to go to get on the boat tour for the caves and where to go to get our sunbeds on the beach. He was very attentive to us to ensure we had a great time! I highly recommend this tour! Both beaches are very beautiful and it was a great experience.

Highly recommend. This is a booking of service & convenience. While everyone else was coming off of the ship in mass chaos & buses, our driver communicated with us & was right there waiting with our car. She took care of everything including some last minute requests changing to private boat tour. Incredible experience with door to door service so we could relax & enjoy.

My family and I loved this tour. Pick up was right beside our ship in port. We loved visiting the monistary. Just incredible. The beach time was so good. My kids loved the beach and the raft rides. The beach bar was delicious and affordable with clean bathroom. We loved this beach so much we asked for extra time to enjoy it. I loved how accommodating they were for us.

This was without a doubt one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. We came to Corfu for one day and wanted to make the most of it. After we booked this experience, Yannis & his team reached out to inform us of the itinerary, alternative options in case there’s rain, and made sure everything was ready to go on the day of.
Our incredible guide, Spyridoula, was the best of the best. She was so friendly, very communicative, had the best local recommendations, and even left us with a little gift for our honeymoon. She went above and beyond to make sure our experience was 5 stars and we’re so grateful for that.
Cannot say enough amazing things about this experience! The best way to see Corfu and make the most of your time there.

We had a wonderful excursion on Corfu with Constantine as our driver. He was waiting for us when we disembarked our ship and was professional, courteous and helpful the whole time through. First stop we took the boat to the blue cave and then second stop a little drive away (at Pazuzu Beach Club) had some beach time with the lounge chairs and umbrellas. The resort was lovely and service was excellent. This was a much better beach to swim and enjoy beach time than the first location. It was a nice way to see a couple places on the island when we were only there for the day.

We were traveling with a party of 10 all various ages. My Mom has mobility issues and she walks with assistance of a walker or wheelchair. When I had booked Vicky immediately reached to ask me questions and coordinate the excursion. Glyfada Beach was not an option due to a hill my Mom would have to walk or be pushed up/down on a wheel chair. So Vicky gave us some other options for other beaches that didn’t have hills. I am so appreciative that we were able to customize something to accommodate my Mom. Pick up was great. The air conditioned van was waiting at the port with my name. Our driver Adonis was very helpful with walking us to the beach as there was a bit of a walk through the town. After the beach we went Corfu Town. Communication was top notch. I would recommend using Blue Tours Corfu.

Booked a private shore excursion to Corfu Beaches Paleokastritsa and Glyfada. The tour company was quick to respond and provided consistent communication throughout. We had the most amazing time at these beaches, the vehicle provided was extremely comfortable, spacious and lovely alongside our driver Theodore, who was very knowledgeable and welcoming. He shared more about corfu and gave us top tips on places to visit and activities to do in Corfu, which we very much appreciated. Both beaches were beautiful and we had so much fun on the excursion. Would highly recommend this tour!

Great day!! Excellent Driver!! Covered a lot of ground. Would recommend that you know what you want to see beforehand. Logistics aren't always clear unless you specify ahead of time. If you dont you may run out of time.
