We cruised around Corfu looking at the sites from the sea and made a stop for lunch and swimming off the cost of an island. The guide was knowledgeable and helpful and couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a good trip. Lunch was lovely and unexpected - described as snacks but was actually a platter of crisps with sandwiches and vegetable skewers - presented beautifully! We all had a lovely time and would thoroughly recommend it.”
