(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Mouse Island
At the entrance of the Halikiopoulos lagoon is located one of the most famous sights of Corfu, but also of the whole of Europe, which is none other than the much-photographed Pontikonisi - Mouse Island. Its name impresses even after so many years of fame. The area of Kanoni and Mouse Island has been for centuries a source of inspiration for many artists while at the same time there has been a scene in major productions of Greek and foreign cinema. Holy Monastery of Panagia Vlacherna This picturesque church was built in the 17th century and around 1980 it was abandoned by the last monk who lived there. This is a very small religious church with a two-storey bell tower that "floats" on the footbridge.
Kaiser's Throne
Emperor Wilhelm the 2nd was attracted by Corfu Island. Consequently he decided in 1907 to buy the Achilleion Palace from Princess Sissy of Austria and create it his residence on the island. As he actively assisted in the excavations of Agios Theodoros in Garitsa bay, there are many buildings and landmarks that bear his name, such as the beautiful Kaiser Bridge which was built for direct access from the Achilleion Palace to the beach which was partially destroyed during the Second World War Shortly before his death, during 1914, he decided to leave a viewpoint as a unique gift for the locals and visitors to the island. That was his private observatory, where he found peace and enjoyed the amazing vista and breathtaking, surrounding beauty of oil-rich Corfu. The Kaiser’s observatory or throne attracts visitors from all over the world for its stunning views and the detail that makes it stand out.
One of the most famous attractions of Corfu are the caves of Paleokastritsa, each of them has a mystery surrounding it. One of them is named Nausicaa, the name of the daughter of the king of Corfu who saved Odysseus the king of Ithaca as described by Homer in Greek mythology. Enjoy this unique experience with us and we can definitely tell you that this unique environment with its crystal clear waters will blow your mind. An amazing boat experience with transparent turquoise crystal waters in Paleokastritsa awaits you. We will help you board the small boat to explore the central west coast which is full of rock formations and small caves. Travel with us to this legendary area where there is another surprise… due to the small size of the boat we will go inside the caves.
