Private shore excursions Delphi, Corfu, Argostoli

[texasstar]

We will be on a Windstar cruise in May 2024 and prefer to do private shore excursions rather than ship excursions.  

Does anyone have any suggestions for excursions they have been on that they would recommend?

Thank you.

Check out PK Travel. We used them in October 2023 to go to Delphi. It was an amazing day and the company is top notch.

In August 2023, we used Corfu Taxi Tours for our day in Corfu.  It was a fantastic day and Spiros was an excellent guide and driver.  He was very funny, accommodating and flexible in what we wanted to do, and there was a lovely snack stop that was so filling.  This is the website and Spiros was very quick to reply.  Spiros Kritikos - Unique Private Taxi Tours in Corfu (corfutaxitours.com)

 

For our stop in Argostoli we used Kefalonia Taxi Service.  It is such a beautiful island.  You  must be sure to book a beach break, the water is out of this world.  Be sure to bring flip flops though in case you end up at the beach with stones.  Your feet will thank-you for it.  The underground lake is also amazing.  We used  Kefalonia Taxi Service | The Local Premier Taxi Firm   On the website for the premium tour which is what our group of 8 booked, it is impossible to do all those stops in 7 hours with the lunch break.  We were cutting it close to get back to the ship and were a tad nervous.  Also because it is very mountainous and lots of ups and downs driving and a lot  of curvy roads, one of the people in the group did experience motion sickness so maybe have some motion sickness pills just in case.  It is a gorgeous destination though.

 

Enjoy planning your adventure!

When on our last cruise of the Eastern Med (way back in 2014) we booked a taxi from the cruise terminal and went up to Ambelonas where the very pleasant owner served us a traditional Corfiot meal in the old family olive farm,. It was really a pleasant day.

I'm delighted to see she is still going.
