Begin your private tour by heading to the Corfiot countryside, full of olive groves and picturesque villages nestled in the hills. Continue to the west coast and Paleokastritsa.
Visit the ancient Monastery of the Virgin in Paleokastritsa, founded in the 13th century. Afterward, book an extra boat trip to Paleokastritsa caves and secluded beaches, where you can admire the unparalleled beauty of the area.
Next, optional stop at a local producer's shop where you can taste Corfu's most typical products, sweets, and liquors while admiring the beautiful views.
Before reaching the magnificent Old Town of Corfu, stop at Kanoni and the Twin Islets, while the airplanes take off and land at eye level. Visit the Monastery of Vlacherna, located on a small islet near Pontikonissi Island, the famous Mouse Island. Feel the thrill of watching planes fly very close to you before landing at the airport.
Finally, take a pleasant stroll through the Old Town and take the opportunity to see it your way, buy souvenirs, have a coffee, or admire the medieval alleyways and the imprint of ancient European cultures.

When visiting Greek Orthodox monasteries, women are required to wear skirts that cover their knees and tops that cover their shoulders. A foulard, sarong, or shawl is ideal to carry, as many monasteries require women to cover their legs (no pants) and may offer loaner wrap.
