One of the best tours we had on our whole trip!! - Months later, we are still talking about this tour we took during a cruise stop in early June. Luckily, the weather was beautiful. We met our tour guide right where our cruise bus dropped us off. You. Will. Not. Leave this tour hungry. They should put that as a guarantee! It was a private tour with my 6 family members. With 6 people, private tours are the best way to go. We really felt like we got to know our guide, and she was happy to answer questions not only of the history of the island but just questions about everyday life on the island! We first stopped at a pie place. Again, the weather was lovely, and they had us sitting outside on a very narrow street, which was fun seeing people on their vespas riding around. We noticed that we were tucked into these side streets away from the crowds, so we really felt like we were eating at some hidden gems on the island. We were pretty full and still had pies left. The first stop was a little long, but with most European places, you get used to the relaxed pace and help really enjoy the atmosphere. The next stop was a family own deli. The place was so photogenic so rustic I was in love with this little place. If we could bring cheese back to the States, I would have bought a whole wheel! We had a plate of meats and cheeses as our guide told us what each was used for. Locals walked by placing deli orders and buying dried beans. Our next stop took us into a busier section to a storefront that specialized in Kumquat. Jams,dried candied, and even liquor! I still have our bottle of kumquat creme liquor in my fridge waiting for a time to share with friends. They even had mixed drinks to go, which we could carry around with us to the next stop, which was great! Next was a sit-down meal with classics like moussaka but some new ones too. Everything was delicious. Our tour guide was so engaging and excited about the tour that it made the day fly by. Our last stop was a gelato shop that is one of the top gelato shops in the world. Feeling adventurous (and having eaten Gelato every day of our vacation), I went with the kumquat gelato. It tasted so fresh and had a candied kumquat on top. I talked about the food stops we made, but between each stop.we took a detour to something historic. I loved seeing the boats in the little port, and she told us once a year they play water polo in the port and the whole town gets involved. Mixing the history with modern use was a nice touch. Before departing, we got a few recommendations to shop, and we said bye to our guide. Highly recommend this tour with Bluetours next time you're in Corfu!

Perfect Blend of Fun and Food - Our private food tour in Corfu Town with Fay was the perfect blend of fun and food sampling (and of course lots of eating). We saw so much more than we expected and appreciated the personalized approach. The comfort and pace were just right. It was a fantastic experience that we’ll cherish forever!

Best Old Corfu Town Food & History Tour - Magda was an excellent guide! We had a wonderful time hearing about the history of old Corfu Town and the outside influences that eventually created the Corfu of today. It was a perfect pairing of history, local culture and traditional Greek food. We highly recommend this tour company and want to thank Magda again for such an unforgettable experience.

Food, Walk and Conversation. - What a great start to our Greek adventure. Superb local food is accompanied with a guide that has knowledge and passion for Corfu and Greece. As well as the history and food the conversations covered aspects of Greek life both current and historic. This was the best walking tour we have done. Highly recomended.
