We had a wonderful evening with our guide. The stories were interesting, especially when learning about the history and real-life people in them. We would definitely recommend this tour, and feel that it is suitable for families with children too. Also we were glad we found the energy to do an activity in the evening. It certainly makes a change from the other tours. When the sun goes down and the city is lit up, it gives a different feeling!

The ghost stories tour with Efi was an exciting ghost-apocalyptic experience. Efi was excellently informed in popular legends and beliefs of the area as well as in historical facts about the city of Corfu that you do not find in the tourist catalogs. We walked at night in beautiful narrow alleys (known as kantounia) of the city that give a baroque and romantic feeling of another era. Efi gave us the opportunity to see night images in cantons of the city that as a tourist you will not meet. Her motivation and the night walk away from the crowdy touristic streets in the beautiful city made the experience fantastic. We recommend this tour for sure!!!

Our ghost walk was led by Effie, and was a truly enjoyable evening, finishing late at 23.00. Besides hearing of the authentic supernatural events people have experienced here, Effie guided us through a maze of little cobbled alleyways which we would never have discovered alone, and her stories in the dark shadows were often really creepy. Highly recommended - but maybe not for those of a very nervous disposition.
