Overview

Your day begins with a private pickup by your English-speaking driver from Corfu Town, heading south to explore history and iconic views. First, visit Achilleion Palace, built for Empress Elisabeth (“Sisi”), with gardens of neoclassical statues and grand 19th-century interiors. (Ticket required, not included.) Next, stop at Kanoni & Vlacherna Monastery, Corfu’s most photographed site, where the whitewashed chapel sits by Mouse Island and planes glide dramatically overhead. Entry is free, though modest dress is appreciated. Finally, explore Mon Repos Estate & Museum, a neoclassical villa set in shady gardens by the sea. The park is free, but the museum requires a ticket (not included). After taking in these southern highlights, your driver returns you comfortably to your accommodation, leaving you with lasting impressions of Corfu’s blend of imperial heritage, natural beauty, and coastal charm.

What to expect

  1. 1h
    A neoclassical palace commissioned by Empress Elisabeth of Austria in the late 19th century. Its gardens are lined with statues of Achilles and classical figures, while the interiors showcase opulent period rooms and sweeping views over the sea.
  2. 1h
    Kanoni & Vlacherna Monastery.
    Perhaps the most iconic postcard of Corfu — a small white chapel on an islet linked by a causeway, with Mouse Island in the background. It’s also one of the world’s most dramatic plane-spotting locations, as aircraft pass low overhead when landing.
  3. 2h · Admission ticket not included
    Mon Repos Estate & Museum. A neoclassical villa set in a tranquil park by the sea. The surrounding gardens are free for a relaxing walk, while the museum inside the villa holds archaeological finds from Corfu’s ancient past.
