Activity itinerary

Corfu Cruise Port Terminal

  • 30m
After being picked up directly at the port, you'll meet your friendly, English-speaking guide and board a comfortable, air-conditioned bus to start your adventure.

Paleokastritsa

  • 1h 30m
Your excursion starts with a scenic drive to Paleokastritsa, one of Corfu’s most iconic coastal spots. Famous for its bright blue waters, steep cliffs, and lush greenery, it offers breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere perfect for both exploring and unwinding. When booking, you can choose a 45-minute cruise on a traditional wooden boat. The route takes you along the scenic coastline and, if weather conditions and boat size allow, includes a visit to the sea caves—an impressive highlight and a great opportunity for memorable photos. If you prefer a more relaxed pace, you can spend your time on the beach instead. Swim in the clear waters, rest on the shore, or simply enjoy the natural surroundings. Whichever option you choose, Paleokastritsa sets the tone for a beautiful and unforgettable start to your day in Corfu.

Holy Monastery of the Virgin Mary at Paleokastritsa

  • 1h
Next, you’ll visit the Monastery of Paleokastritsa, a 13th-century Byzantine site perched above the coastline. From its hilltop viewpoint, you can take in impressive sea views while your guide shares the monastery’s history and the stories behind this serene location. Please note that if vehicles cannot reach the top, getting to the monastery may require a short 15-minute uphill walk.

Corfu Town

  • 1h 30m
Afterwards, you’ll continue to Corfu Town, the island’s historic centre and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its narrow cobblestone streets, Venetian-style architecture, and lively squares lead you past landmarks like the Old Fortress and the Liston Promenade. You’ll enjoy a guided walk and then have about an hour of free time to explore at your own pace. Try local dishes at a traditional taverna, shop for souvenirs such as olive-oil products or kumquat liqueur, or simply enjoy strolling through the charming streets. Blending centuries of history with vibrant local life, Corfu Town offers something for every visitor.

Corfu Cruise Port Terminal

  • 30m
To conclude your adventure, we'll make sure you're back at your cruise ship on time, allowing you to reflect on the unforgettable memories you've made in Corfu.
