Corfu Beaches & Corfu Town: Full Day Private Tour
Best for: Travelers who want beaches and Corfu Town in one private day trip
This full-day private tour combines beach time with a visit to Corfu Town, making it the broadest sightseeing option here. The included transport is a modern air-conditioned vehicle with a professional English-speaking driver, and pickup and drop-off are confirmed for the cruise port or a Corfu hotel. The itinerary notes name Paleokastritsa, Glyfada, and Corfu Town, while some extras remain optional, including the boat trip to the caves, sunbeds and umbrellas, and gratuities. A professional tour guide is not included, so the experience is more transport-led than commentary-led.
