Highlights
  • Statue of Count Von Der Schulenburg - First stop is the beautiful garden of the Durrells. Here there will be a storytelling session recounting many tales of the Durrell’s exploits and adventures on the island.

Then admire the British Palace of St Michael and St George, relax in the flowering gardens and maybe even fall in love…it is the ultimate meeting place for lovers.

Walk with us along the French street of Liston, the most popular pedestrian street of Corfu. Admire the imposing square with its many cafes and see the socialites enjoying their daily gossip.

Admire the richly decorated Orthodox church of Agios Spyridon, the patron saint of Corfu and reportedly a miracle worker.
Last stop is the Town Hall Square, the main square of the city during the 400 years as a Venetian protectorate. Admire Corfu’s unique baroque building, the San Giacomo, built in 1669 as a meeting hall for Venetian officials, and converted in 1720 into a lyrical theatre. All the great opera performances of Europe were presented here until 1903 when a larger theatre was built as the San Giacomo was not sufficient for the ever-increasing number of spectators.

The best walking tour - Grest tour! Our tourist guide was awesome. Even if it was too hot, we didn't face any problem. Slow pace, shade, and always asking if we feel ok! Very professional and really knowledgeable.

Great overview of Corfu town - Athena was a pleasant and very knowledgeable guide on our 90 minute walking tour of Corfu. We were a private party of 8 adults and she tailored the tour to our particular interests. We asked to see the Jewish synagogue, which is not part of her regular, and it was no problem. She also made excellent shopping suggestions. It was hot and humid (in early July), so a 90 minute tour was just the right length to get a good overview of Corfu town. Highly recommended.
