REAL STORIES
Hear From Satisfied Clients
We had Corfu Union take us to Paleokastritsa Bay during our Cruise port stop at Corfu. Amazing experience and everything we could have hoped for. Michael, our driver, was a delight. We enjoyed hearing about Corfu and Greece from him.
We had a great experience with Vangelis with Corfu Union Transfers and Tours. He worked out a great price for us to create a shuttle for our wedding guests.
Thank you for being super helpful in finding us a transfer to the airport for the early hours. Would recommend!
How to Explore Corfu Island During Your Holidays
Corfu Island offers an incredible mix of coastline, historic towns, mountain villages, and hidden viewpoints. To fully experience the island, it helps to plan your days around different landscapes and locations rather than staying in one place. Exploring Corfu gradually allows you to discover both its famous sights and its quieter corners.
Begin Your Journey in Corfu Town
Corfu Town is the cultural heart of the island and the ideal place to start exploring. Walk through the UNESCO-listed Old Town, visit the Old and New Fortresses, and enjoy the atmosphere of the Liston promenade and its lively cafés.
Discover the Island's Scenic Coastlines
Corfu's coastline changes dramatically depending on where you go. The west coast is known for dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters, while the northeast offers calmer bays and panoramic sea views toward the Ionian horizon.
Visit Villages and Countryside Landscapes
Beyond the beaches, the interior of Corfu reveals traditional villages surrounded by olive groves and green hills. These quieter areas offer a glimpse of local life and some of the most beautiful viewpoints across the island.
Plan Comfortable Routes Across the Island
Corfu may appear small on the map, but traveling between different areas can take time due to the winding coastal and mountain roads. Planning your routes carefully helps you explore more places while keeping your holiday relaxed and enjoyable.
Where to Stay on Corfu Island During Your Holidays
Choosing the right area to stay in Corfu can shape the rhythm of your entire holiday. Some locations offer lively evenings and historic surroundings, while others provide peaceful sea views and quiet countryside settings. Understanding the different accommodation areas helps you find the perfect base for your trip.
Corfu Town for Culture and Atmosphere
Staying near Corfu Town places you at the center of the island’s history and architecture. Venetian streets, elegant squares, waterfront cafés, and cultural landmarks create one of the most beautiful town settings in the Greek islands.
West Coast Stays for Beaches and Sunsets
The west coast is famous for its spectacular coastal scenery and dramatic sunsets. Areas such as Paleokastritsa and Agios Gordios offer beautiful beach surroundings and easy access to some of Corfu’s most iconic landscapes.
Private Villas for Space and Privacy
Many travelers choose private villas for the comfort, privacy, and panoramic views they offer. Carefully selected properties such as those available through White Dream Villas and Corfu Escapes provide peaceful accommodation while remaining close to the island’s main attractions.
Village Retreats for a Quieter Experience
Traditional inland villages offer a slower pace of life surrounded by olive groves and rolling hills. These areas are ideal for travelers seeking authenticity, scenic landscapes, and a more relaxed atmosphere away from the busier coastal resorts.
