Itinerário
Nosso guia credenciado irá encontrá-lo em frente à Antiga Fortaleza na estátua de Schulemburg e depois que ela lhe der algumas informações de fora sobre o monumento, você continuará seu passeio no centro histórico.
A praça central de Spianada é o monumento mais significativo da cidade. O nome deriva da palavra veneziana para "área plana aberta" e diz-se que é a maior praça dos Balcãs. Liston, que faz parte da praça, abriga alguns dos melhores cafés e restaurantes de Corfu. Foram os franceses que transformaram a Spianada em praça pública. Antes do século XIX, era um grande terreno baldio usado para fins defensivos. As partidas de críquete são disputadas na Esplanada, o único lugar na Grécia onde o esporte é praticado.
O Palácio de São Miguel e São Jorge está localizado na parte norte da praça do centro histórico da cidade de Corfu. É o maior e mais significativo edifício do período do domínio inglês, que começou em 1814 e terminou em 1864, quando as Ilhas Jônicas foram reunificadas com o resto da Grécia. Eles foram construídos a pedido do Lord High Commissioner britânico, Sir Thomas Maitland, para se tornar sua própria residência luxuosa e para abrigar a sede administrativa do Alto Comissário. Hoje, abriga o Museu de Artes Asiáticas de Corfu, o único do gênero na Grécia, dedicado exclusivamente à arte e antiguidades do Extremo Oriente e da Índia. Foi fundado em 1928 e seu acervo atualmente é composto por aproximadamente 15.000 obras de arte asiática e goza de reconhecimento mundial, com peças raras de suas coleções sendo apresentadas em exposições internacionais.
Durante o nosso passeio também visitaremos a igreja de São Spyridon, o santo padroeiro da ilha e um milagreiro.
Enquanto caminhamos pelas ruas estreitas, passaremos pela Praça da Câmara Municipal de Corfu, outrora o exclusivo bairro veneziano com a ópera e as vilas ao redor. Vamos admirar o edifício da Câmara Municipal que foi usado inicialmente como um clube para os nobres e mais tarde em 1720, o edifício sediou o Teatro Nobre de São Giacomo de Corfu. Finalmente, em 1903 foi transformado em Câmara Municipal.
O bairro judeu, o antigo “gueto” veneziano que ainda hoje é chamado de Evraiki em grego, se estendia pela parte sudeste da cidade, perto das fortificações venezianas. Era atravessada por becos ladeados de casas desbotadas e de vários andares, como em Veneza. O gueto perdeu sua unidade urbana devido aos bombardeios durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial.

We’ve enjoyed some excellent small group food and cultural walking tours across Europe, but the combination of a brilliant guide (Nausica) - who was both highly informative and humorous - and the generous, varied and delicious food we enjoyed, made this the best tour we have joined. We’d have rated above 5 if we could. Next time we’re back in Corfu we’ll be back for another tour.
Alice was probably, no, she IS the BEST, tour guide ever! She has soooo much personality that the whole tour comes alive. Great information, great food stops, and always interesting. Words are not enough to describe how enjoyable this experience became. At each stop we were greeted by wonderful food presentations and happy cooks/owners. The only suggestion (this is minor) would be to decrease the number of “sweet” treats. Alice also provided a deep knowledge and understanding of Corfu.
Excellent tour, just right amount of information , delicious food. Very enjoyable

Electrabel was a welcoming, animated and thoughtful guide who gave us a marvellous cultural tour of Corfu old town. The tour punctuated with delightful and delicious food and drink stops sampling authentic Corfiot treats. It was the perfect blend of culture and food, with the experience brought to life by Elektra's amazing knowledge of Corfu, past and present. I was amazed that our tour even included a 2 course dinner at a charming bistro that we would never have found on our own. I could not recommend Electrabel and this tour more highly. Book it fast! You won't regret it!

Alice gave us an A-MAY-ZING food tour through old town Corfu, including cultural highlghts. Definitely get this tour with Alice- she's brilliant, warm, and a true foodie. Stops included huge platters of breakfast pastries, a meat and fruit platter, Kumquat and liquor tastings, a visit to an exceptional out of the way Michelin-noted spice shop and ended with a delicious family style lunch on an outdoor patio. Wow!! We had the most amazing time, and just loved Alice!

Can’t rate this experience highly enough. Alice was the ultimate host. Friendly, funny, knowledgeable and just a lovely person. She really elevated the experience for all of us. She gave great local historical insights and led us through some beautiful areas starting with the gardens and onto quaint alley ways. We visited some amazing local food spots along the way, and the food at each was delicious and NO ONE left hungry. Being on a cruise ship we only had one day in Corfu and we are so glad we spent it on this tour. Thanks again Alice !
