This was one of the highlights of our trip as it was a unique way to see Corfu. We were picked up by the owner (had to pay extra, but worth it). It is a family owed business. Which made it even more personal. We were able yo go to the beach. Spend about 40 minutes there and then up to the tallest mountain. It was a great ride. The view from the top allowed us to see all of Corfu. We were given a fairly large sandwich amd water while enjoying the view. It was fantastic. Highly recommend this tour!.

We really enjoyed every moment. Is nice to see your teenage one with open mouth inside the caves. We get plenty time for swimming. Just probably more time will be nice for explor Paxos island.

Our guide did a terrific job and customized the tour to make sure we saw wh a t was most interesting to us.

Great experience to travel round the island. Few stops for pictures and some lunch. Very enjoyable

Very good guide who loves his work and country. Nice landscapes and great nature!
