Corfu is one of the most beautiful islands and the Grand Lady of the Ionian island group. An Island where it’s unique vegetation and more than 2 million olive trees merges with the turquoise sea.
Venetians, English, French & Greeks all lived and flourished here, and left there mark on the island’s numerous sights and attractions. They composed a diverse culture that lives on in every musical note of Corfu’s marching bands, in each glass of Ouzo, in the labyrinthine alleyways of Corfu town, in every love affair that sparks up in the Canal d’Amour. Corfu – or Kerykra as it is known in Greek – certainly knows how to seduce you.

In the famous alleyways of Campiello, with washing lines hanging above you, and to see where the legendary empress Sissi has mounted stairs from the harbour when visiting her summer resident ‘Achillion Palace’ , you will feel like a star in a period movie.
