What To Expect
Achilleion Museum
Spend a full day discovering Corfu’s history, local culture and famous views on this Private Sightseeing Tour! Your day kicks off with a visit to the impressive, neoclassical Achillion Palace, built in the 19th century as a summer retreat for Empress Elizabeth of Austria, also known as Princess Sissi! Once inside the Palace, get a glimpse of the fascinating story of the ''Sad Empress”, as you have the chance to witness her personal belongings along with a rich variety of artworks. Take a walk through the fabulous gardens and marvel at the fascinating statues of Greek historical figures, including Achilles - the hero of Greek mythology after whom the Palace was named!
Paleokastritsa
Your tour continues with a visit to the world-famous Paleokastritsa, inarguably one of the must-see attractions of Corfu! Soak up the unique natural beauty and admire the spectacular views to the countless little bays. It’s said that it is at one of these bays that Odysseus (Homer’s fascinating hero) was washed ashore and met Nausicaa for the first time. Take time to enjoy the breathtaking views from the hilltop 13th-century Monastery of Virgin Mary, opt to take a boat trip to explore the famous caves of the area (extra cost) or swim in the crystal-clear, emerald waters of Paleokastritsa!

5.00Akis, was waiting for us at the cruise terminal with a warm welcome and very nice vehicle. He showed us the Monestary, and other sights including one overlook that a bus cannot reach. We had requested some specialties of the region and he took us to a restaurant where we dined like royals. The best experience, terrific driver, we highly recommend.
Wonderful snapshot of Corfu, great guide and driver.

5.00A great excursion in Corfu. Our guide, Kristina, and driver, Theo, were very knowledgeable and assisted with skipping lines at various stops. As with all of our private tours, this was a great way to see a lot in a short period of time. Highly recommend this tour.
