GOOD Based on 488 reviews DariaApril 12, 2025Verified Fantastic day out Fantastic all day bus tour with excellent service from the bus guide lady as well as the driver. 10hrs of adventure and laughs 👍 great value for money, kids under 5 go free Beautiful views, Corfu island is stunning 😍 Lesley ASeptember 29, 2024Verified Trip to Paxos, snorkelling and caves Lovely boat trip to the caves then swimming/snorkelling from the boat ending up in Paxos for lunch. We really enjoyed the day and will definitely return to Paxos which is so pretty and worth further exploring. Boat crew were fun and friendly - there are few shady spots but a bar on board for water/beer. Great value for money at €35 for pick up locally, transport to the boat then a full day out - we really enjoyed it. Anett LSeptember 22, 2024Verified Highly recommended We went on two trips. Paxos and Blue Lagoon, both by boat. Value for money top, organization excellent. Highly recommended. Paul ThornSeptember 21, 2024Verified Grand Tour highly recommend We went on the Grand Tour of Corfu which took most of the day. The lady in the ticket office (Perama) wasn’t pushy at all and booking was a very relaxed experience. We were picked up the next day from outside the ticket office. We really learnt a lot on the tour and the guide was a encyclopaedia of interesting historical facts. The best part of the tour for me was stopping at a restaurant way up a mountain road. The views were amazing and the food was the best I had in Corfu. I can highly recommend this company and this particular tour. Mandz00}}September 12, 2024Verified Very Special We booked a private boat trip through Facebook with taz cruises directly - with Spiros. We were a family of six with two younger ones 8 and 9. Spiros and his wife were very professional and we had a beautiful trip it was a birthday treat for our daughter and the trip was bliss. Spiros was patient and very very knowledgeable about the surroundings and we had so much fun and felt very safe in his hands. Would highly recommend and would definitely do this again. Thank you so much Spiros! Dimitrios KSeptember 1, 2024Verified Amazing AMAZING EXPERIENCE would recommend 100%.😉😉🇬🇷It was a great day- a fun amazing swimming experience.
