Corfu Town Walking Tour

[The starting location] [Lets Go] [Corfu Market] [Corfu High Street] [The Liston - Coffee Time]

Back to Top of Page The starting location

We first need a starting point which is the Old Corfu Port car park. We have selected this location, as parking is only 1.50 Euros (for all day), and there is plenty available! So, depending where on Corfu you are staying, you will need to follow the following instructions to direct you.
Once you have arrived at the car park and found a place to park, (do not park too close to the quay side edge), look towards the old fort.
Meeting Point
Opposite the car park you will see this stone statue, surrounded by a circular railing. It is a good location to arrange to meetup with others.

Back to Top of Page Lets Go

Look for the path exit opposite the stone statue - towards the fort. Cross the road and into the square. Keep the fort to your right, and walk towards the top, right hand corner.
Follow this road, and enter into the square. Pass a palm tree, two coffee bars and take the road/path to the top right corner.
Follow the path up the hill (towards the pink Church). You will reach a set of stone steps. Continue up - the new fort will be directly to your right.
At the top of the steps, you will see the entrance to the new fort. For a nominal fee, you can take a look around - it's not part of this tour, but if you have time, it is worth a visit.

Back to Top of Page Corfu Market

Go through the tunnel - the kids will love it! You will emerge from the tunnel into the market!
Cross over the road (be careful with your children).
Walk through the market. Take note of the diverse selection of fresh fruit, vegetables, vibrant colours and aromas.
Towards the middle, one stall offers an excellent selection of olives, ask to try some before you purchase. Also note, the herbs on offer. Towards the end you will reach (smell!) the fish part of the market.

Back to Top of Page Corfu High Street

At the end of the market, turn left, crossing the road and into the small street (called Garaz Markara). Follow this street, turn right at the top and go down the slope onto the main road at the bottom - turn left.
You are now walking along Corfu's main high street!
Continue to the end of the street. (Look for the church bell tower ahead.) On your left, you will see the 'National Bank of Greece'. Ahead, notice the red sign on the building. Fork to the right.
Follow this narrow lane to the end, passing lots of gold and jewellery shops. (This may be the most expensive part of the tour!)
