3.00The tour started off excellent - Katrina called twice to make sure we knew where to meet the coach. Excellent service. Our guide Anna was fair - she gave us the information but the bus wasn’t cool and it was a 97 degree day. The boat tour was great but didn’t seem well Organized. And we had no bathroom for 4.5 hours. Anna said there were bathrooms but never gave us names or took us by there. Average.
Beautiful day and a great...

4.00We had a great time with this tour! The tour guide was very punctual and called us to make sure we knew where to meet up. The caves were more like caverns. The boat would go halfway into the caverns and then back out. They were pretty but I was thinking it was a boat ride through the caves. They are not that deep. Still a beautiful tour and beautiful view.

4.00The boat ride was beautiful. It took you into the entrance of the caves (not totally inside). The tour was always so hurried that there was never time to find a bathroom for fear of missing the bus. The tour through Corfu Town was very fast with little history except once you entered a Greek Orthodox church where there was a lot of religious information. A longer period at the Town would help since you had to find a cafe and buy food to find a restroom after a 3 hour excursion and then no time to check out the shops. A reminder that ship time was earlier than local time would have been helpful so that we would have felt comfortable staying longer in the town on our own.
