J	Jack Bannerman on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Where do I even start. What an amazing experience. We were welcomed by Eleftheria, an incredibly warm hostess who kept us laughing and had a huge amount of knowledge on the factory and the olives. And finished with a delicious tasting with olive oil, bread, cheese and even a sneaky glass of wine. Highly recommended. Really worth your time!
D	Dureska on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We visited in middle of January so the mill was closed but the son Stavros gave us a very informative tour of the historic mill exhibition and told us a lot of interesting facts about olive production on Corfu. This family is really doing a great job focusing on small, specialty batches of different ancient varieties of olives. They are now distributing all over the world and winning awards. Small scale local operation conquering the world one olive oil bottle at a time:). Very well done.
M	Michael Kline on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I got a little worried when I called the phone the night before our cruise ship landed at the port. The phone didn’t ring and said it was disconnected. So I emailed Georgios and he told me to be at the port and he would pick us up in a black Mercedes’ van. He called me from their mobile number and found us at the port. He talked to us the entire ride to their home. The tour was very informative and the sampling was an amazing experience we will remember forever. Their Olive Oil was delicious and we are bringing some back home. George’s father took us back to the port along with his cousin as a translator. They showed us a 1200 year old olive tree and another 20 minutes explaining how the trees are the life of the area. It was a great day that we continued to speak about well after we were done.
E	Emese Mihaly on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely family owned mill which produces an incredible olive oil and it goes back to 9 generations. They explain how they grow, harvest and produce the olive oil. After that we could taste the products and they do taste like nothing else. Once you complete the tour you'll be able to distinguish between the good and bad olive oils. Worth every penny.
r	ronit ronen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Must visit. Due to the rainy day we couldn’t do the outside tour, BUT, I had 2.5 hours of knowledge and tasting. George, i think 5th generation, gave us a full experience of the olive oil industry and history. With humor and wise. The tasting were so intriguing. For example chocolate with olive oil, ice cream and much mire. Book this!
M	Mix Life of Beauty on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Highly recommended Must do We had one of the best experience on our holiday to corfu. We visited on 11 May 2022. We were only 5 of us including my 4 months old boy. George and his team made the tour so informative yet so interesting. First and best olive testing every done . Their place is very beautiful well organised. George took us to visit their olive plantation where we got to see 1500 years old olive tree, which was very pretty place. My little boy loved George had fun on tour! Must visit on your holiday ?? Highly recommended you cannot go to Corfu and not do this tour
C	Chloe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ YOU SIMPLY CANNOT COME TO CORFU AND NOT SEE THIS PLACE! The Governor’s Olive Mill is an exceptional experience with a beautiful family heritage. My partner and I signed up for the olive tasting and we completely fell in love with the passion, process and history of the mill. I highly recommend it to families, individuals, couples and sole travellers. It is a great experience and their olive oil is delicious and I truly wish I could have bought more home
Y	Yiako Vergados on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was without a doubt one of the most interesting, educational, and fun experiences I’ve had in Greece. Spyro was so extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, and kind. The way he presented the olive oil making process was easy to follow and engaging, and the tasting was an amazing experience. The mission, motive, and goal of the Governor olive oil company of Corfu is both honorable and necessary to the maintenance of Ancient and Modern Greek traditions. And all of these are in addition to the necessities of maintaining the organic process of creating the high quality olive oil that this company produces for its immense health benefit. Lastly the olive oil itself. If you weren’t to purchase it for any of the other reasons you would learn about throughout the tour, you’d have to get it for its flavor. As a Greek and an individual who has partaken in olive oil consumption for my entire life, this is the best that you will find on the market and it is so well worth the price. I know that I will be purchasing this olive oil for many years to come, and I hope that you do as well.
