Ancient Ruins, Beehives, Stunning Views, Beaches, Ancient Monastery & Goats
The tour will take you along the back of a lagoon where you will often find goats roaming, before a steady climb through nature and past beehives, then towards the old village. Explore the abandoned school, bakery and town hall before having a refreshing drink or something to eat at one of the best tavernas on the island serving traditional Corfiot dishes passed down from generations. And don’t forget to try (and buy!) the delicious local honey.
You will experience stunning views of Corfu and Albania on your descent before the tour takes you to one of North Corfu’s most beautiful sandy beaches, a forest track with an abandoned monastery and ride back through the sand dunes along the coast back to where you started.
At the end of your tour we will send you a 3D satellite video of your tour!
