We took an absolutely breathtaking tour of Corfu operated by Corfu Way T.S. Savina (our guide) and Maria (our driver) were both outstanding, showing us all the beauty that Corfu had to offer. We started the day with a private tasting at family-owned/operated Carburi Estate which featured local, homemade olive oils, various olives, olive spreads, honeys and jams. We couldn't leave there without a few tasty souvenirs to bring back home and share! Everyone we encountered was so friendly and treated us as if we were family. We then drove to various different beaches and scenic views, stopping at a café on the top of a hill overlooking the gorgeous coast while sipping espresso and Greek coffee and munching on local pastries. Our guides even went out of their way to indulge my parents by taking us to the Lawrence Durrell house, a beautiful, peaceful home and restaurant right on the water. Savina stayed late after the tour to walk us around old Corfu town, stopping to see the large square, various shops and even having dinner with us at one of her favorite local restaurants (Taverna Pergola). If you've got the time, we highly recommend this spot for lunch or dinner. The owner brought out several different plates for us to share family-style and get a taste of everything Corfu has to offer. He even ran out to get a couple candles from a local shop to place in a dessert at the end of the meal and celebrate my wife's birthday...the friendliness of all the people we encountered was never-ending and will not be forgotten. Corfu definitely left a lasting impression on our hearts, so we highly recommend this company to anyone looking to "get to know" Corfu.
