Blue Sea Escapes 4.9 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ review us on Julie Wassall ★★★★★ What a lovely afternoon spent with the most welcoming hosts, John and Wendy.Everything was so thoughtfully planned with us as guests in mind – our 3-year-old grandson felt right at home from the moment we arrived. He had the most magical experience: from his first swim in the cool, blue sea to zooming around on the tender and even steering the boat himself (almost, 😉)unforgettable!The sail back to shore, carried by nature and the wind in the sails, was a moment to treasure.Thank you so much – from all of us in the Wassall family. lena kaz ★★★★★ John & Wendy var helt fantastiske verter! Fra første stund ombord ble vi møtt med prosecco, og etter en herlig dukkert ventet et deilig fat med oster og spekemat, sammen med iskald vin – ren luksus på vannet! Seilturen tok oss til den vakre øya Vido utenfor den gamle festningen og videre forbi det sjarmerende White House i Kalami, kjent fra Durrells.Vi fikk også prøve paddleboard, noe som gjorde opplevelsen enda morsommere. Alt – den varme gjestfriheten, maten, vinen og de magiske omgivelsene – gjorde dagen helt uforglemmelig. En opplevelse vi vil huske for alltid!Tusen takk, John & Wendy – dere gjorde turen magisk! ✨⛵🍷 hugo halpern ★★★★★ harini j ★★★★★ We had the most amazing time with John and Wendy on their yacht.

We explored uninhabited islands, swam, laughed and experienced some of the most amazing views and sights you would only get from the water. Nothing was too much trouble for our gracious hosts. They knew all the quiet spots for complete tranquility and the food and company was absolutely amazing. Couldn’t recommend this experience highly enough.

Thanks Wendy & John Suzanne Ewers ★★★★★ Fantastic day sailing with John and Wendy. Picked us up from Agni beach and spent the day visiting beautiful beaches for swimming and snorkelling. Very friendly, nothing was too much trouble, would definitely book again! Rob, Sue & family Modesta Tondi ★★★★★ The best on the island John and miss Wendy! Lucia Fernandes ★★★★★ Having gone on a boat during my first time in Corfu was a memory I will never forget. The experience is unmatchable. The crew on board - John and Wendy - treated us as almost family, making me feel safe and secure on the boat. As well as this, taking us to a private island where we could paddle board and use the speed boats was something extraordinary. This truly was an unforgettable experience!! Thank you so much!! Georgie Blair ★★★★★ The most amazing experience ! A must have if you’re travelling to Corfu. John and Wendy were incredible and so friendly and gave us such one of the best days of my year. Phoebe Power ★★★★★ Such a lovely day on the boat! John and Wendy were excellent hosts, making the day really enjoyable!Definitely the best day of the holiday. AndrewH ★★★★★ John and Wendy are just perfect hosts! Lovely people who continue to live a lovely life. If you want to experience a wonderful day out on the sea DO NOT charter anyone else because they will give you the best there is. On a funny note I have buggered up Johns only day off this week where he would normally re provision the boat….. we have booked a morning game of golf instead, to be followed by a trolley dash for boat provisions before chartering them again for another day on the water!🤣….. They are that good!😎 Andre vM ★☆☆☆☆ John was extremely unpleasant in our interactions. The use of vulgar language and cynism was shocking. An unfortunate experience during our summer holidays, planned far in advance which I hope to soon forget. Judi Goldstein ★★★★★ Fantastic day! Wendy and John perfect hosts. Would definitely come again. Highly recommend. Alexa Hohenberg ★★★★★ One of the things I look forward to the most every year, is going aboard Carnival with Blue Sea Escapes. It’s the best day trip, exploring all coves beaches that only a boat can access. John & Wendy are the best hosts and so much fun. By far, this trip will be the best day of your holiday. Brian Bontenbal ★★★★★ The day sailing with John and Wendy is something we will probably remember all our lives.Magnificent blue waters, really nice food, amazing kind hospitality, are just a few ways I'd like to describe our day out on Carnival.From arriving at the boat (nice flowers are a special touch), departing from the marina, having a nice chat with some good information about the surroundings to then putting the sails up for a fantastic sail, it's all been absolutely perfect!Me and my wife (to be) both loved every second.Thank you John and Wendy for creating this memory with us, you 2 are the best of the best! Ayoze Hernández ★★★★★ I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Blue Sea Escapes in Corfu! Despite the bad weather on our originally scheduled day, they were incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing us to reschedule for a day with better weather. This really made a difference in our overall experience. My partner and I were treated to delicious food, beautiful spots, and informative explanations throughout the day. The attention to detail and the warm, friendly attitude of the them made it an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Corfu! You will enjoy a different view of Corfu Teenage Podcasts ★★★★★ Megan Gallagher ★★★★★ Wow. What a day! Absolutely incredible. Amazing hosts, great boat, beautiful island. Accommodating, funny, care free trip. Thank you for the BEST day! Nuria A ★★★★★ We had an unforgettable experience with Blue Sea Escape! From the very beginning, the communication was excellent and they were incredibly accommodating. Despite a bad weather forecast, John & Wendy made sure we had a great time, inviting us to relax with wine and conversation. What started as a casual chat turned into an amazing day sailing, swimming, and enjoying the beautiful Greek scenery when the weather was better. The perfect way to end our holiday—great company, delicious food, and breathtaking views, nothing was missed. Highly recommend!Thank you John & Wendy Mark Hessey ★★★★★ We had a fantastic day with John cruising up the East side of Corfu recently. He was the perfect host, offering drinks and lovely nibbles and was a great guide to the geography of the area. We even managed to see a little pod of dolphins that gave us a display alongside the boat, which was really special and John said was unusual. The boat was very clean, comfortable and well provided for with a SUP, snorkelling gear and even a fishing rod. So do yourself a favour, just book it and you will have a great time. James Stobart ★★★★★ A beautiful yacht, perfectly designed for a days cruising along the coast of eastern Corfu. John and Wendy are wonderful hosts, with a never ending supply of food and drink.We sailed down past Corfu town and onto Vidos. A small island just off the coast were we swam and snorkelled in the surprisingly warm sea amongst a myriad of colourful fish.We traveled further down past the Venetian fort and past the house used in the filming of the Durrells.Turning back along the coast we then moored off Kerasia beach for a fabulous lunch of typical corfiot mezze and copious glasses of Rose.Such a truly relaxing day with good company and stunning views back to the island. Beautiful villas which only appreciated from the sea and the mountains behind the villages hugging the coastline.We can’t recommend this more if you want to experience Corfu by boat. Alex R ★★★★★ We had an absolutely spectacular trip with John aboard Carnival on our final day in Corfu. I’ve been to Greece many times and always make sure I fit in a little boat trip. This was easily the highlight of our holiday, but it was also the best boat trip we have taken! Can’t thank John enough for his knowledge, hospitality, affability and of course wonderful boat. It is impossible not to relax, the views were tremendous, and John knew all the best places to take us. Thank you so much John for making our holiday. I cannot recommend heartily enough. An absolute must. Ben Nicholson ★★★★★ We had a great day with John and Wendy! It was great to have such a bespoke itinerary, meaning that we could swim and snorkel in some beautiful spots, and see parts of the island that we hadn't yet seen. They were fantastic hosts and we would thoroughly recommend the whole experience.Absolutely excellent, all 6 of us had a superb time - highly recommended!! Daniel Carroll ★★★★★ We had the most magical time with Captain John & 1st mate Wendy. What incredible hosts & the absolute BEST way to see the Corfu coast ... & all the super yachts. We got the fishing rod out & even caught a fish. Loved the paddleboard & the multiple swims. The food was excellent & we will definitely be back next year. Could not recommend enough. This will be the best day of your holiday, for sure!!! Louise Charlton ★★★★★ John and Wendy go over and above to make your experience on Carnival outstanding. They made us feel like part of the crew and gave us a day our family won’t forget. The perfect way to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday - drinks flowed all day, with delicious food provided. Our kids (11 & 8) had the most amazing time, launching themselves off the boat into the crystal clear water, paddle boarding, snorkelling, zooming around on the tender and learning to helm the boat - they didn’t want to leave! Nothing was too much trouble - the best day of our holiday by far! Nicole Reed ★★★★★ Just came back from a wonderful boat trip around Corfu - John & Wendy were fab hosts, we really enjoyed it and would 100% recommend...paddle boarding, snorkeling and great food & drinks...thanks guys! The Reeds xx Debbie Hiron ★★★★★ Well what can I say, we did some research and decided we didn’t want a boat trip with 20/30/100 people on board. So decided to go with John and Wendy. We were two families holidaying together so 4 adults and 4 kids (14,12 & 11). From the minute we met them, they made us feel like family. Couldn’t do enough for us and were amazing with our children. Sunbathing, drinking, lunch, driving the boat, swimming in the beautiful blue sea, paddle boarding, and taking us out on the little speed boat. Music playing and giving us information about the island. What else would you want.Perfect day with perfect hosts. If you want that little extra personal touch then I can’t recommend these guys enough. They were truly fantastic hosts and made it a very memorable trip, worth every euro.If we’re ever back and they’re still going, we’ll definitely be booking them again to make some more fantastic memories and holiday highlights. Saskia ★★★★★ Very good service. The boat is “yours”.You can go where you wanna go.Lovely people. Friendly And do everything to make this day the best of your holiday.John And Wendy: Thank you so much for the nice day.Greetz the family from Holland Kate Dixon ★★★★★ This is our second trip with John and Wendy and we had another wonderful day on Carnival exploring the beautiful Corfu coastline and swimming in some stunning bays. We were again treated to a delicious meze lunch on board and there was plenty to drink throughout the day. John and Wendy are fabulous hosts, so welcoming and brilliant with the kids which makes for a truly relaxed and special day. If you do one thing on your holiday, take a trip with Blue Sea Escapes, you won’t regret it! Tara Rastrick ★★★★★ We had a fantastic family day with John and Wendy on their lovely boat Carnival. They made us feel very welcome and at home on their boat, taking particular care that our 11 year old was comfortable and included. A very special day as a family. Ashley Smith ★★★★★ What an incredible day out with Wendy and John. A gorgeous boat, a lovely day on the water - delicious lunch and free flowing drinks to compliment a gorgeous coastline. Could not recommend more - really lovely hosts. Stephen ★★★★★ Fantastic day on the sea with John and Wendy who looked after us so well. Explored the coastline, the island of Vidos, and experienced wonderful views of Corfu Old Town from the deck of their beautiful yacht. Plenty of snorkelling, sunbathing, and swimming all accompanied by delicious home made food and drink throughout the day. Highly recommend!

Claire Wright ★★★★★ A special day. The boat is extremely comfortable and spacious (to the extent that my 6ft 8 husband can stand up inside!). Wendy and John could not have been more welcoming or attentive, and were absolutely focused on ensuring we had a wonderful day. The lunch was amazing, wine and beer flowed and our two teenage girls loved diving off the boat and using the paddle boards. The scenery was gorgeous and we found lots of quiet bays to explore. Would recommend without reservation!!! sara colton ★★★★★ We spent the day withJohn and Wendy. It was such a fabulous adventure. We stayed in various coves and ate, drank and swam. Wendy’s lunch was to die for and my daughter can’t stop raving about her pasta salad!!!They went above and beyond to make us feel relaxed and found some fun ways to entertain the kids.We wished we could do it all over again! We will definitely do again when we come back to Corfu. Highly recommend the day trip to have fun and be pampered. Gina Weare ★★★★★ If you go on holiday to the Isle of CorfuThere are a couple of things you really should do.Take one day of your trip if you so pleaseHop on Dear Carnival and take to the seasShe’s a delightful 45 feet of pure nautical classAnd the day starts well with plenty of fizz in a glass.She’ll take you north or south past oldCorfu townThe wine will flow and you’re sure not to frownThe anchor will drop in the clearest blue sea,Where you can swim and snorkel (and have a pee!).The paddle board needs some chain and some ropeBefore getting to your feet is remotely a hope.You’ll see Corfu from the sea and the beautiful coastWhile John is the skipper and Wendy the host,The lunch is superb, hospitality second to none,When the mankinis come out you’ve matched our fun!If the gods of the wind look upon you and smileYou’ll Hoist up that sail and cover a nautical mileWhatever the weather- which is sure to be sunOn Dear Carnival you’re guaranteed to have fun.So thank you Wendy and John for a wonderful dayAnd welcoming us to your boat in the warmest way.It was a fantastic day- we’d do again in a flashBut we went to Oliva restaurant and now have no cash!!! Alan Jordan ★★★★★ I had a great experience today with a wonderful host(John) and his friend Jo. Taken out on his yacht to different locations for swimming snorkelling. We also had fantastic food and the drinks flowed from start to finish. Would highly recommend this experience. It will make your holiday special. Anne Hodgson ★★★★★ Thanks to John and Wendy for a wonderful day out, a gentle cruise up the NE coast with perfect spots chosen for swimming, an excellent lunch, back down to Kontokali Bay and fabulous views of Corfu town. Finished the day with a run across to Vidos Island, and an unsuccessful attempt to master the paddle board ! Perhaps we'll manage that bit next time! Would thoroughly recommend this very professional and friendly day out.
