Paleokastritsa, Old Corfu Town and Tastings
Old Corfu and Tastings
November 26, 2023
Small group of 8 people. Our tour guide, Magdelena, was very knowledgeable about the area.
We toured the Monastery at Paleokastritsa. Beautiful views and interesting history of the church and the local Saint. The old city of Corfu was very interesting. We visited several churches and buildings. We stopped for wine and food tastings where we sampled many different olives, olive oils, wine, and marmalades. We were able to purchase any of these tasty treats.

VIP for the day

This was a really great tour for me! For whatever reason, I ended up being the only guest for the day.
It was like riding around with a best friend. Conversation was great, food sampling was really neat (no pressure to buy anything). It was just an all around great day 😊

A relaxing private car ride thru Corfu with a very great guide. We stopped at an incredible farm and tried a ton of local oils, spreads, desserts etc. and brought home all of our favorite items. Stopped to take beautiful photos and popped in at a restaurant to try the local food. While some of our cruise mates had a very loud and crowded afternoon, we had a relaxing and picturesque one. Highly recommend.

Perfect Day

We had a wonderful day in Corfu thanks to this tour and our amazing tour guide, Stamatina. We were the only 2 people to sign up for the tour. The tour company could have canceled, but fortunately, they didn't and we had our own private excursion. We first traveled to a small family owned farm, Carburi Estate. The owners were so gracious and spent a lot of time telling us about the olive oils, honey, wine and other products they make. We left there feeling like we had made a friend in Corfu. We then traveled through the countryside to Paleokastritsa. We enjoyed chatting with Stamatina along the way, learning about Greece and Corfu. The monastery was wonderful and the views were breathtaking. We ended our day in Old Town where Stamatina gave us time to explore on our own. We enjoyed the shops and had a wonderful dinner before she returned us to the port. I can't say enough about the hospitality we received from everyone that day. I would highly recommend this excursion!
