Food & Culture Walk, Corfu

Bring your appetite and your comfortable shoes as you meet your guide and the rest of your small group in front of the Old Fortress and set off on a relaxed, three-hour stroll. You'll make your way to some of Corfu Town's most important historic sites and landmarks, including the regal Palace of Saint Michael and Saint George, the tranquil Durrell's Garden, and the 16th-century church of Saint Spyridon. See history and culture converge in vibrant alleyways and bustling plazas as your guide shares fascinating insight into Corfu's past and present. 

In between the many historic sites, you'll stop to meet local food vendors and artisan producers, learning about Corfiot gastronomy as you sample plenty of sweet and savory treats. Taste the island's special honey and olive oils, sip a refreshing tsitsibira (ginger beer), snack on spanakopita (spinach pie) and noumboulo (shaved, cured pork), and indulge in a fragrant slice of galaktoboureko (a phyllo and custard dessert). You'll also have the chance to try the popular island liqueur made with kumquats, and toast your adventure with a classic ouzo.
