“I have done at least two dozen food tours all over the world and this was truly one of the best. Naustia was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job mixing historical facts with information about life in Corfu today. She was able to answer any questions; she exuded a love for her homeland; and, of course, we had plenty of wonderful food, wine and liqueurs at several local restaurants and shops. Be sure to show up with an empty stomach!”
