We thoroughly enjoyed this walking tour lead by Efi an excellent guide whose experience and local knowledge was very evident from the start. The tours length was ideal as there is so much to take in and a break for Greek coffee in the middle was just perfect to experience the local life. We visited sites, monuments and historical properties which we would never had been aware of otherwise and gained an insight into the historical development of Corfu town and its wider setting, how the inhabitants lived and worked and the impact of the numerous settlers who arrived during the Byzantine, Veniecian, French, British and Ottoman era's. An experience which greatly enhanced our knowledge of this beautiful town and all thanks to an expert guide, brought up and educated on the island, and who we had the privilege to have known.
