Awesome!

John_M, Oct 2025
We had the good fortune to have Fanis as our guide/driver for the day and he was amazing! Not only did he share the robust history of Corfu and the surrounding areas, but he gave us strong insight into what day to day life was like today. Our visits to the various spots was efficient, with good recommendations for food and shopping in the city center. I would highly recommend this tour, and please request Fanis if you can!!

Thank you so much for the 5* review! Best wishes, Chris

Amazing private tour

Lori_D, Oct 2024
Xenofon, our driver and guide was wonderful! He was very flexible and tailored our tour to our needs and desires! We visited a farm where we had the most delightful hostess. She had prepared wine tasting, olive tasting and olive oil tasting. All delicious!! We then went on to the monestary. Then we went on a private boat ride to the caves! So beautiful! We then traveled to the Old Town where we were able to do some shopping! Xenofon went over and above as my mom is handicapped and needed extra assistance! Take this tour and ask for Xenofon!!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Dear Lori, Thank you for the amazing 5* review! Xenofon is one of our best drivers indeed! We will be more than happy to see you again in the future! Best wishes, Chris

For the most part we...

Kristin_P, Oct 2024
For the most part we enjoyed the tour. The driver was nice and very informative about the island. It had a little bit of everything we wanted to do - a visit to a local producer of olive oil and honey, a visit to a monastery, quick photo stop overlooking the beach and a drop off/pickup at old town. The only complaint is that we thought there might be another food stop since the name of tour is “Taste of Corfu.”

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Dear Kristin, Thank you for the very good review!We are glad that you enjoyed the tour. The name of the tour is Taste Corfu which is a way to taste some products of the island and get a taste from the island, although we will certainly think about your suggestion for adding one more stop. Best wishes, Chris

Exceptional Tour and Staff

Gabriel_P, May 2024
Very good trip, personally had a great time in Corfu! This tour is perfect for a half day excursion as you will get to see the countryside, historical places and breathtaking vistas. The beautiful place was greatly complimented in great part with our driver, Makis. He drove safely and our vehicle was exceptionally clean and nice. He also served up useful information such as the history and industry of Corfu (we now know that Corfu has about 4.3 million olive trees and is a key olive oil and olive exporter)! The owner of the Carburi Estate, while very funny yet informative, displayed her homemade specialties and told the story of each one. Overall, a 10/10 experience!

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Gabriel, Thank you for such an amazing review! We would love to see you again in the future! Best wishes, Chris

Delicious

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Diane, Thank you for such an amazing review! Kate is one of the best guides in Corfu and we are very happy that you enjoyed the tour with her. She told us the best about your group! We look forward to welcome you again in the future. Best wishes, Chris

Delicious and informative

Lynn_H, Apr 2024
Our guide Paulina was terrific. Very knowledgeable, interesting and friendly. The food/ drink tastings were delicious local selections. (Skip breakfast beforehand). Going to the top of the fortress is a great way to see the city. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you so much for the 5* review! Paulina is one of the best guides of Corfu and we are very happy that you enjoyed the tour. Best wishes, Chris

The way to see Corfu

Wendy_B, Oct 2023
Capo Greco contacted us by email a few weeks prior to our Cruise to check everything was ok. Advising the places we would visit and asking if there was any amendments or add ons we would like and they would do their best to accommodate us. We were picked up outside the terminal as advised, our Guide/Driver holding a sign with our name. We immediately felt relaxed and in safe hands. We felt this was the best way to see as much of Corfu in the time we had. We were not disappointed. Our Guide was very informative. We were given 2 hours free time at the end to walk round the old town. All in all a very pleasant experience. We are a couple in our 70’s and we would recommend this company and tour without reservation. Thank you!

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Wendy, Thank you for the 5* review! It was our pleasure accommodating you to one of our tours and we are very happy that you were satisfied with our services! Best wishes, Chris

Corfu on land and sea!

Marianne_D, Oct 2023
Our tour guide took us to a family owned farm where we tasted different flavors of olive oils, honey and jellies. Afterwards we to the sea where he arranged a boat ride into caves. Thank you Viator.

Awesome

Sharon_C, Oct 2023
Finas was an amazing driver. He was knowledge, friendly and professional. Was so excited to see where the Durrells were taped. It was a very nice time.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Sharon, Thank you so much for the 5* review! Being able to amend the itinerary as many times as you can is one of the reasons to book a private tour with us and our drivers always do their best to fulfill our customer's wishes. We will be happy to see you again in the future! Best wishes, Chris

Amazing group tour. Our guide and driver were incredible. Best part was the monestary and Carburi Estate stops. Perfect places for photos, tastings and experiencing the culture.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Erin, Thank you so much for the 5* review! We are very happy that our job is appreciated that much and we would love to see you again in the future. Best wishes, Chris

Corfu hospitality at its best!

Caitlin_P, Sep 2023
Our driver was fantastic, he really personalized the experience and made our honeymoon trip very memorable! The local olive oil, honey, and olive tasting was fantastic, the monastery was stunning, and the beach was so peaceful... Old Town and the Fortress was an amazing sight at sunset. What a great trip!

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Dear Caitlin, First of all congratulations from all the Capo Greco Travel Team for your marriage! Thank you for such a great review, we are very happy that we added some great memories in your honeymoon trip. Best wishes, Chris

Thank you very much for the 5* review! All our drivers & our guides do their best to make sure that our clients will have a great time during their stay in Corfu. Best wishes, Chris

Make time to walk town. It’s amazing!

Yanelys_T, Jun 2023
It was good, I just wish we could’ve spent more time in town. The tour of the Monastery was good and the boat as well. But make sure you leave at least 1 to explore town.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank you so miuch for the 4 stars review! We would love to welcome you again in the future to our wonderful island! Best wishes, Chris

Nice time but not what we expected.

Teresa_M, Jun 2023
We thought we would spend a short time at the beach, but we just drove by it. The monastery was very nice. The tasting was at a little place, run by a very nice family, but we dipped bread in his olive oil outside on the porch. Very good olive oil. The wine tasting was of 2 wines. Served in a small plastic cup like cough syrup cups. We got 1 sip each of the two wines. We had a nice time but we thought we were going to see how olive oil was made and to a real winery.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear Teresa, Thank you for your review. You have booked a private tour with some recommended stops. One of the reasons that someone is booking a tour privately is that he/she is free to change the itinerary as much as he/she wants. You just had to tell to your driver that you wanted some time at the beach, as we are actually very very flexible. Regarding the tasting, you have visited a family owned place with many different kinds of local olive oil, wine, kumquat sweets and more exactly as it has been described. We think that it's better for a visitor to taste many different local products than just Olive Oil and in 4.5 hours that this tour lasts, it was impossible to visit an olive oil mill or a winery (and still do the Monastery & the Old Corfu Town). It's a pleasure to read that you had a nice time & if you ever come back to Corfu we would be very happy to arrange a custom full day tour for you including Olive Mills & Wineries. Best wishes, Chris

Absolutely the BEST private tour experience!!!

ROBYN_M, Jun 2023
This tour was exquisite!!! The van was spacious and air conditioned and the driver was SO friendly and knowledgeable!!! We will never again book an excursion through the cruise ship. For the same money you can book a private tour with these folks and be treated like kings and queens. No lines and you can tailor your tour to see anything you want. I highly recommend adding a boat excursion to see the sea caves!!!! There’s nothing else like it!!!! Perfect!! They heard it was our daughter’s 21st birthday and they concluded our tour by giving her 2 bottles of Corfu’s finest wine!!! So special! Trust these folks to give you a once in a lifetime experience!!!

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear Mrs. Robyn, Thank you so much for the AMAZING review! That's exactly what we are trying to offer to our clients...lifetime experiences in a few hours! I would also like to thank you for being so kind and friendly with our driver Fanis!He was so excited for having so easygoing guests and he enjoyed the tour as well! Take care and I am looking forward to seeing you in the future! Best wishes to all of you and Happy Happy Birthday to your daughter for all the Capo Greco Travel Team! Chris

Corfu island

Nancy_B, Oct 2022
Corfu was a highlight of our trip. Learned a lot about olive trees, went to 2 of the highest points on the island, had a fabulous lunch with local vino in Old Town. Our knowledgeable driver, Fanis, was exceptional. Best tour ever !!!!!!!

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Nancy, Thank you so much for such an amazing review! Fanis is one of our best drivers and thank you for confirming that as well. It was our pleasure to show you Corfu "through our eyes" and we are very happy that you enjoyed every single minute.

Great experience

Barry_B, Oct 2022
Nice driver, friendly and answered all of our questions. The stop at the road stand (for oils, olives, wine) was just ok. The lady at the stand was super nice. Maybe it was just too early in the day for the stop

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Barry, Thank you for the great review! It was quite early indeed, although we thought that it was better to start from there so you would not lose time driving back and forward and have more time in the other stops. We will be very happy to see you again in our wonderful island. Best wishes, Chris

Not worth the money

Wendy_C, Sep 2022
We were supposed to see a monastery, the beach and do a food and wine tasting. We spent 80% of the time at the monastery which was beautiful, but never made it to the beach, other than driving by it and the guide pointing it out. The food tasting was bits of bread to dip in olive oil, and sticks to dip in honey. 2 wines and a couple of olives. Tour was not as described and not worth the cost. Felt like a complete waste of time. So disappointing. Most of our tours were wonderful but I would steer clear of this one

Response from Host, Sep 2022

Dear Wendy, Thank you for your review. We are very dissapointed that obviously you didn't enjoy the tour. Almost all of our reviews for the "Taste Corfu Private Tour" are 5 star reviews, so we clearly want to see what went wrong with your group. Spending 80% of your time in the Monastery is extremelly too much! We usually give 20-30 minutes there so there will be always more time for the beach, the tasting & the Old Corfu Town and according to our GPS tracking system, you stayed there 30 minutes. I will personally speak with the guide for that issue though to see what happened. Regarding the tasting, it is an old school local products tasting and NOT a food & wine tasting. In this table you can find 13 different kinds of local olive oil, olive paste, sundried tomatoes, 5 local honeys, 6 different local marmalades, local sweets, 3 different wines, local kumquat products, local limoncello, ouzo & tsipouro. It was a traditional local products tasting & it was exactly as it was in the description. Most of our guests love this place because it's actually the only place in Corfu that you can taste so many local products all together. Also the tour was private so you were actually free to choose how much time you can spend in each place... Why didn't you tell to the guide that you would love to see the beach & spend some time there? Our tours have an itinerary, but we customize them according to everyone's needs (that's the main reason of booking a private tour anyway). If you ever come back to Corfu, please contact us directly and we will love to arrange a custom tour so you can see eactly what you want. Best wishes, Chris

An amazing taste of Corfu

nick_m, Aug 2022
One of the best tours ever . If on a cruise and have a short time to explore I suggest this excursion. Fannis our driver was the best. Took us to the most amazing tasting of wine, olive oil, olives, honeys and marmalade’s. The lady that owns it makes everything herself and was truly the most hospitable. We could have stayed all day. Corfu we will be back!!!

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you soooooo much for the amazing review! Fanis is great in his job and the local products tasting is the only place in Corfu that you will find all the local products together so we really hope that you still have their "taste" in your mouth! We will be more than happy to see you again! Best wishes, Chris

Average Tour

cashima_p, Aug 2022
The tour was just ok. Our driver was super sweet and such a nice guy, who was flexible enough to incorporate what we wanted to do. The disappointing aspect was the tour description that said, “ relax during a wine tasting and visit an olive oil producer.” This was more or less a visit to a store with a display of olive oils and sweets set up. It was nice and everything was delicious, but I expected to visit the actual olive oil production facility or something similar. Also the wine was just an offer by the shop owner, “would you like a glass of wine?” It wasn’t a visit to a winery of any sort. You will have an awesome time, once these are not the expectations.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you very much for this review! We have already changed the "wine tasting and olive oil producer" months ago as both of them are not available any more for tastings. The last 2 years the tasting takes part in a local store and it's a traditional and old school tasting with some amazing products that you can't find them anywhere else on the island. Our driver did his best for you and we are very happy that you are satisfied with his service. Best wishes, Chris

Beautiful

Robert_V, Aug 2022
I love Corfu.. Our tour guide took us everywhere and he was so nice. I couldn’t ask for a better tour guide. I would definitely recommend this tour .

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Dear Mr. Robert, Thank you very much for the amazing review! We always try to do our best for our guests according to their needs. Every guest is different so our private tours are custom tours and our drivers are always polite and happy to drive you anywhere you wish. Best wishes, Chris

Not the best choice for CORFU

Dennis_T, Jul 2022
Our guide met us and he was a very nice guy, John. Unfortunately there was a language barrier and he didnt seem fully engaged in telling about CORFU. The olive oil tasting seemed a bit of a scam and tourist trap. In retrospect I wished we would have spent our time in old CORFU. By the time we got to the area we had less than 1.5 hours to have lunch and see anything. John did not seem encouraging of adding any time on to our visit, as we have had with other guides through VIATOR.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you very much for your review. We are very surprised that the olive oil tasting seemed a bit of scam and tourist trap to you as it is an old school, traditional olive oil tasting with more than 10 olive oils (all from Corfu!). Also the products there are all home made and it's one of the places that everybody loves to go because the tasting is actually so full like a breakfast... In Corfu Town our clients usually spend approx. 1 hour but even if you really want to enjoy the town and see everything and also have a lunch, you need approx. 3 hours there. You have booked a 4.5 hours tour and our driver John did it 5 hours and 15 minutes for you, so actually there was some more time without any extra charge as we always do to our clients. Thank you again for the review. Best wishes, Chris

Value not worth the cost

Sarah_R, Jul 2022
The best part of the tour was actually not part of the tour- it was a private one hour boat trip that our guide arranged for us when we asked. Otherwise the tour was more of a driver instead of a guide. Silence in the car the entire time- didn’t tell us at all about Corfu and dropped us off and picked us up from locations. Food tasting was standing around a table for 10 mins with 3 other groups and then getting shuffled inside to buy items. Honestly not worth the money for what you get.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Dear Sarah, Thank you for your review. We apologize that our service did not satisfy your expectations and we really appreciate that you bringing these issues to our attention. Please know that your situation was an exception. As you can see on other reviews, we are known for providing a good "traditional" tasting experience and for caring deeply about our customers. We can’t fix the past but you have my personal commitment to improve the way our staff serves every customer. Until then, please accept my sincerest apologies on behalf of everyone on the team.

Fun but expensive

Maarten_v, Jun 2022
Friendly driver with knowledge of the island. Schedule was a bit flexible to suit the passenger’s preferences; were able to stay longer or leave earlier at specific places. Price was a bit high for what you actually get (might be because we had to divide the price by only 2 people).

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you bery much for your review! We really hoped that you enjoyed the tour. As it is a private tour, the schedule is always flexible and obviously our guests can stay longer in any place they might like the most (that's one of the reasons that some people book a private tour!). Thank you for your kind words about our driver Fanis, he did his best to make this tour great for you and he even expanded the duration more than 4.5 hours so you can have more time! Best wishes, Chris

Charming and beautiful Corfu

Emille_R, Jun 2022
We had an amazing time!! Our tour guide was great and showed us many beautiful places!! The old town was charming, I wished We had more time to explore it, but we were limited since we had to go back to our cruise. It was fantastic!

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Dear Emille, Thank you for such a wonderful review! In the limited time that you had, we tried to show you the most beautiful places of the island!We will be more than happy to welcome you again in our wonderful island and to show you more! Best wishes, Chris

Amazing experience in Corfu!

Sara_H, May 2022
Absolutely an amazing day! We arrived early and the owner made arrangements for our guide, Fonis to arrive early. We started out with a delicious tasting of local olives, oils and preserves from a local estate called Campari! Come hungry because you will eat many local delicacies! Then off to the monastery with its scenic views. Amazing! Then finally in the old town for shopping. I highly recommend this tour company. Our guide, Fonis was amazing! Don’t miss this opportunity in Corfu!

Response from Host, May 2022
