Additional Information
Embark on a full-day guided tour, available in multiple languages, on board our ship. Begin your journey by taking in the historic views of Corfu’s Old Town while cruising along the water. As we sail down the west coast of Paxos Island, be captivated by the awe-inspiring cliff faces and pristine white sandy beaches. We then navigate into the incredible sea caves, where the crystal-clear blue waters will leave you in astonishment. The blue caves are home to the Mediterranean monk seal (monachus monachus), and the entire island of Paxos is part of the NΑΤURΑ 2000 European initiative. We’ll ferry you to Antipaxos Island, where you’ll find the sandy coves’ blue waters quite akin to those found in the Caribbean. Take in the sights of the tiny islands of Skaltsonisi and Mongonisi, and then sail alongside the narrow waterway sandwiched by Paxos, Panagia, and Agios Nikolaos, to finally anchor in the heart of Gaios village’s charming harbor. Amble through Gaios’ quaint alleyways, shop for mementos and savor a meal at a traditional local taverna.

A lively mini cruise - A day out to Anti Paxos, unfortunately the winds meant we didn’t get to the blue caves, however the trip did not disappoint, the staff on the boat were very friendly and Paxos was beautiful. choppy trip home but if you are happy to chill and drink on a boat with a swim in the sea half way this is the trip for you

Great day out - We went on a day cruise to the caves, Paxos and Anti-Paxos - and we had a great day.
The caves were amazing, paxos was beautiful and anti-paxos sea was second to none.
The tour guides were really nice and upbeat.
It is worth noting - the boat was very crowded, and there wasn’t enough seats for everyone to sit at the top.
It also stated the cruise was 11 hours, and it ended up being 9 1/2 which is a shame because we felt very rushed in Paxos - so the extra time there would have been great.

packed out of overcrowded boat- greed - Overcrowded and overbooked no seats available once we were picked up at Lefkimi. Day was nice but boat so overcrowded took 15 minutes to get on and off. I will look for another tour if we ever decided to go again . I now know why other tours were more rw expensive

Review - So we booked with Corfu cruises though our hotel for two people €110 for both of us. We booked the full day to swim and go to anti paxos and the caves. We were picked up from 8:20am and dropped off at 18:00. We went on a day which was quite cloudy so we were quite cold going on the boat (I was just in shorts and a hoodie). When searching online I was under the impression the food and drinks were included in the price we paid so we didn’t bring much money with us, unfortunately that was not the case. Everything was quite expensive which was dissapointing. We were given a talk at the beginning to say what the plan was and then left to it. The staff were seen gossiping about eachother, being moody and even sleeping, if they weren’t doing that they were just smoking on the below deck. We had about 2 hours of sailing till we got to the caves which were beautiful and then half hour to the lagoon where we had an hour to swim but it was more like half an hour. The swim was beautiful though. Then we arrived at anti paxos which was beautiful. If I was to go again I would just do the swim as it was a really long day.

Book elsewhere. - Having been with a different company in previous years and had a great time I was so disappointed with Corfu Cruises - to start off, the bus was nearly Half an hour late and the boat was way way way overbooked!!! Absolutely no seating available other than the smoking area (non smoker) and we weren’t even the last collection point. A large family with children also having no choice but to sit in the smoking area. This would’ve been a brilliant day with 20/30 less people on board. The swimming was great but it is just as brilliant on all other less packed ships and paxos is absolutely beautiful but again… no need to be packed like sardines to get there.
Would never use Corfu cruises again.

Avoid - It was unbearable, the music was so loud that was annoying. While we were inside these beautiful caves we were listening something like: “play that funky music white guy”, how can this be appropriate? We are in the middle of all of this breathtaking beauty and you cannot appreciate it, you cannot enjoy it bc of this. Then we went to Antipaxis which is amazing but with reggaeton at the loudest volume possible how can you swimm and enjoy yourself?
Teo tries to be funny and nice but it is just annoying.
It was overcrowded and if you want to run away from all that noise you cannot go down bc everything is smoking.
What a waste, what a shame!

Useless, 6h30 round trip to do nothing - Horrible and useless! We did the Paxos and Antipaxos day cruise. It was horrible, already you should know when you arrive at the first spot to swim, the crossing takes 3h30 round trip 3h so 6h30 just traveling without doing anything. Too long to get next to lots of boats, like municipal swimming pools. We did it in May so be aware that it’s worse in summer!
Loud music, headache, a disco.
No point in doing this outing, there is nothing good. With children it's even worse. The poor, I have seen some cry. 6h30 is a long time to just swim with lots of people, see two caves just passing by and stop for 1h30/2h in a basic place with lots of boats arriving at the same time.
We had a very bad day. The next day we rented a boat without a license and did the Paleokatrisa coast, much better, exceptional. Transparent blue water beach, nobody. Only happiness. Do the same instead of doing these tours with hundreds of people so you don't see anything.
In photo the boat next to which we stop. In short, 300 people minimum and more in July and August. Ridiculous and just for swimming in blue, cold because of the open sea.
The prettiest coast of Corfu

Scammers! - Scammers! In Paxos they told us that the return time was at 1:50 p.m. Our surprise… we arrived on time and the boat was casting off. We thought something had happened and they should move it but it left and they were clearly watching us because there were about 10 of us looking like fools. After 5 minutes a guy appears saying that they will take us in a boat to the boat for €20 per person… We arrived and they had everything ready to make us pass as if it were the usual mechanism. Amazing that they give tourists such a bad time for a few extra euros.

Scam - A scam. We didn't get to see the caves and spent only 20mins in the sea near paxos. Absolutely disgraceful. Waste of time and money especially since its so expensive.
