Paxos and Parga trip from Corfu - The trip was by boat, very nice with a clear timing and a professional crew. The both Paxos and Parga are beautiful islands, the time that we had for visiting is not enough (about 2h) in order to visit, we would like to have more time....but for sure we will come back.

Parga / Paxos Tour. - Parga was amazing. Met all expectations. Spent 2 hrs there but could have easily have spent 4. Paxos unfortunately could not compete after that visit. Great day overall though.

Nice tour but below average tour guide - This is a nice overview of both Parma and Paxos. Note that the trip Is actually almost 11 hours in duration including hotel pick up and drop off. The tour guide spoke many languages but humiliated a passenger in front of everyone. She spoke loudly so that everyone heard the issue of concern. I have never witnessed this from any tour guide during my travels in Europe. Her approach kind of ruined the magic of the whole experience.

Not a pleasant experience - At the point of booking in the itinerary it was not clear it will take 3 hours on ferry way out and another 3 hours back. It was a slow commuter ferry with limited commentary about destinations. It was good that we were left to explore islands on our own though. In hindsight We did not need the tour company to book, we could have booked a speed boat ourselves to cut down travel time and have more time at the islands. They cannot control the weather but was not a pleasant experience as there was lightning thunderstorms rain earlier in the day making the sea very choppy. We could have decided to not go, but decided to go as they did not cancel so we thought it will be ok. When we got back, even hotel and local people were surprised the tour went ahead given the weather and we actually did it on commuter ferry.

11 hour excursion - It wasn't a 5 to 6 hour trip as stated, but an 11 hour trip. The trip to Parga was nice, we would have liked to have stayed there longer instead of driving on to Paxos...it's not worth it. On the way back in the boat the air conditioning was off. Otherwise the hotel transfer and boarding went smoothly.

Okay of you want to spend most of the day on board the boat. - This trip was booked with the understanding it would be more like a half day trip. However... after being picked up late (supposed to be 8:30) it was around 8 p.m. we returned to our original pick-up point. This was not what we expected. Also, most of the time was spent on board the boat leaving a relatively short time for sight-seeing. In addition, while Parga seemed to be a nice little place we, were only there for an hour and a half before being whisked off to Paxos which had very little to recommend it. I think it would make more sense to have longer in Parga and less time on the boat. Be aware of how much time is available for sight-seeing and the length of time you will be sitting on the boat listening to the majority of passengers complaining about the same thing.

Not to be repeated - To be avoided. Huge expense (48 euros adults and 24 the 4-year-old). To this must be added the cost of drinks that you are forced to buy on board so as not to die of heat. The boat trip is very hot and in the inner part that is not exposed to the sun the air conditioning is almost imperceptible. The Guide provides two meager pieces of information. You leave from the port of Corfu but no one informs you before buying your ticket that there will be another stop in the south of the island to load other people with the result that you remain all crammed and sweaty. Departure at 9am, stop to load other passengers at 11am and arrival in Parga at 12pm. You only have 1 hour and 50 minutes of time. You can swim very quickly in a crowded beach. And an equally quick lunch. Then you have to run by ferry. Departure at 14 and arrival in Paxos at 15. And there another unpleasant surprise. To be taken to a private beach you must take a small coach at an additional cost of 6 euros per person. Alternatively (as we did) we proceed in the village on foot for 20 minutes (under a scorching sun) to get to a strip of beach of large pebbles of about 15 meters and 3 meters wide full of people. Also there stop of 1 hour and 50 and then again two stops in the island of Corfu. In short, a tremendous race to see nothing and die under the sun. The worst boating experience my family has ever had. Extremely stressful for children

Worst holiday ever - Pargos ,very overrated,we was told by tui that are apartment was a short walk to the beach ,on getting dropped off at our room ,we decided we needed water so found out that all shops are in the harbour area.so we walked up a steep hill ,then down another steep hill about a quarter of a mile long ,then down 72 steps to the centre ,thats full of eateries tacky shops old tshirt shops no places to visit down there but a old castle .boat trips are to a couple of caves n paxos for a couple of hour,and not many more .its very nice for a day trip but 2 week walking up n down that hill ,did it for us .wild filthy cats all over ,valtos beach a trek to get to ,shingle beach packed with wall to wall sunbeds,little beach in harbour packed solid full of bodies and cigarette buts no real bakeries just shops selling buns n bread ,I wanted to go home after 3 days .felt a prisoner there ,never again

No pick up! Wasted day and money! - We were never picked up from our Hotel. Waited for 1 and 1/2hours. Left a phone message for the tour company and sent an email, with no response. Reached out to Viator via WhatsApp and they were going to request a refund. No other word from either. Have used Viator in the past with no issues! Very disappointed!
