What to expect

This tour is ideal for cruise ship passengers seeking a hassle-free exploration of Corfu’s top sights. You'll have the chance to soak up the magnificent views of Mouse Island, visit key attractions, and wander around the Old Town.

Your Shore Excursions from Corfu Port begin by unveiling the charming highlights of Corfu Town and its scenic surroundings. Your adventure begins in the historic Kanoni district, the former capital of Corfu. Here, you can savor panoramic vistas of Vlacherna Monastery and the iconic Mouse Island, a location steeped in legend.

Next, you'll pass through the grand Mon Repos Palace in Paleopolis, the ancient heart of Corfu. Constructed in 1824 by British governor Frederik Adams for his wife, Nina Palatianou, this palace served as a summer retreat for the Greek royal family for over a hundred years.

One of the key attractions is the Esplanade (or Spianada), the largest square in the Balkans. It boasts a cricket pitch, gardens, monuments, and a bandstand. This square hosts numerous parades throughout the year, often featuring traditional Corfiot marching bands. The Old Fortress, an impressive example of Venetian military architecture, stands at one edge of the Esplanade.

Lastly, you'll drive through the scenic Garitsa Bay to the delightful Corfu Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Meander through its cobblestoned streets, admire historic buildings, and soak up the mesmerising architecture. Your excursion concludes with a relaxing ride back to Corfu port.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Sapori di Corfù, cucinare con la gente del posto in una fattoria biologica

Scopri l'anima di Corfù nella fattoria biologica Bioporos sulle rive della laguna di Korission. Il tuo viaggio nell'agricoltura corfiota inizia con la presentazione dei veri protagonisti del tour: i proprietari della fattoria.Per prima cosa, la proprietaria ti insegnerà a preparare cosmetici biologici, come maschere per il viso, creme alla cera d'api e altro ancora. Utilizzerai ingredienti reperibili nella cucina o nel giardino di casa tua e porterai con te le tue creazioni a fine giornata.Poi preparerai una torta tradizionale corfiota, una salsa tzatziki e il pane. Il proprietario accenderà il forno a legna e si sprigioneranno gli aromi della torta a cottura lenta e del pane che avari contribuito a preparare.Mentre il pranzo cuoce, il proprietario ti guiderà nella fattoria, mostrandoti con orgoglio la sua collezione di attrezzi agricoli, gli ulivi e le arnie. I suoi racconti illustrano il rapporto tra Corfù e l'olivicoltura, mentre la sua passione per l'agricoltura rigenerativa traspare dal modo in cui promuove la conservazione delle specie vegetali endemiche. Scoprirai poi la storia di questa laguna protetta dall'UE e il suo impatto sulla popolazione locale, nonché i dettagli sulla fauna circostante, le piante rare e le numerose specie di uccelli presenti qui.Dopo il giro della fattoria, assaggerai il pranzo appena sfornato, abbinato a un'insalata fresca dell'orto della fattoria. Per dessert, rilassati con una tazza di caffè ammirando il paesaggio idilliaco.
