Superb time and learned much from Gordana through her gentle way to convey the amazing volume of knowledge she possesses. She really added value to our visit to Corfu.

Magical stay in Corfu! The landscapes are magnificent, from panorama to panorama, the mountain in 4x4 passing through the picturesque villages, the visit of a monastery accompanied by a captivating French-speaking nun, The warm and colorful streets of Corfu with its craft shops, and its multiple architecture, the southern coasts for there bathing and the surprising sights, a little disappointed by the poor state of the castle of Sisi (under repair)! A delicious family gastronomy made with the heart... and wonderful discussions with the restaurateurs notably at the Golden Sunset in Boukaty beach or at the Alatopípero rue Doña in Corfu (old town near the port and new citadel) not to be missed and in addition cheap... Our hotel Paleo ArtNouveau Hotel in Paleokastritsa was superbly located with a magnificent view only negative point the buffet we get tired of quickly but full of very good restaurant nearby and grottoed it right in front for the evening just extra! Rooms with mini private pool and breathtaking views are just great The small monastery of Paleokastritsa is worth a visit as well as the nearby Angels' Citadel with a stop at the restaurant at its feet Go to Corfu you will feast
