Itinerary
Kaiser's Throne
Your first stop will be at Kaiser’s Throne in the village of Pelekas. This site is renowned for its stunning panoramic views. Standing at the top of a hill, it offers a 360-degree view of the island, including the entire coastline and the distant Greek mainland. The spot was once favored by Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, who visited often. Take time to explore the area and enjoy the picturesque surroundings. There's also a café where you can relax and enjoy a drink while soaking in the views.
Paleokastritsa
Continue your journey to Paleokastritsa, one of the most beautiful and popular areas in Corfu. Famous for its crystal-clear waters and dramatic cliffs, Paleokastritsa offers a peaceful and scenic atmosphere. You can take a boat trip to explore the hidden caves and secluded beaches nearby or visit the Monastery of the Virgin Mary, perched high above the bay. The monastery, built in the 13th century, is a place of spiritual significance and offers another breathtaking panoramic view of the sea and surrounding landscapes.
Bella Vista Viewpoint
Continue your journey to Lakones, a charming traditional village. The village is known for its picturesque narrow streets, stone houses, and traditional Corfiot architecture. Stroll through the village, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, and see how the locals live. You may also have the opportunity to visit local shops or cafés for a taste of authentic Greek hospitality. From Lakones, head to the famous Bella Vista Viewpoint, located just above the village. This viewpoint offers one of the most stunning panoramic views in Corfu, overlooking the village of Paleokastritsa, its crystal-clear waters, and the surrounding coastline. The name “Bella Vista” (Beautiful View) is a fitting description of the breathtaking scenery, which is perfect for taking in the beauty of Corfu's natural landscape.
Kanoni
Your final stop will be Kanoni, a charming area just outside Corfu Town. The highlight of this location is its incredible view of Mouse Island (Pontikonisi), a small islet with a Byzantine chapel. From Kanoni, you can admire the vista of the island's lush greenery and the Ionian Sea. If you have time, you can visit the Vlacherna Monastery, which is located near the waterfront, connected to the mainland by a causeway. This iconic spot is one of the most photographed places in Corfu.

Spectacular tour!
What a terrific day! It was a PERFECT way to see the key spots of Corfu. Front door, white glove service, and our driver, Odysseas, couldn’t have been better! He was much more than a driver…he knew and imparted sooooo much information, from a local’s perspective, and he became a friend. This was a highlight of our trip! We were not cruise passengers…this is a traveller must do!

Can't ask for more!!!!
Very professional, responsive team. The vehicle was clean and with plenty of space for a group of 15. The driver was very polite. Offered complementary water bottles, offered great advise on best places and spot for the trip. Felt very safe overall.
