This grand tour of Corfu takes in all the island's best bits in just one day. You'll visit Achillion Palace, enjoy free time in Paleokastritsa and enjoy the views from Bella Vista hill. Spiros, one of our local guides, says, ‘‘Achillion Palace was constructed in 1890 as a private residence for Elizabeth – 'Sissi', the former Empress of Austria. It was her summer getaway before her untimely and tragic assassination in 1898 in Geneva. Today, visitors can appreciate the powerful mural of Achilles carrying Hector, and remember the palace's appearance in the James Bond film, For Your Eyes Only.'
First on the agenda is Achillion Palace. Boasting stirring views of the Corfu coast, the meticulously landscaped gardens are a work of art. Spiros adds, ‘Empress Sissi of Austria was enamoured with Corfu and its mythological heritage, particularly the story of Achilles – she named the palace after him. The palace and gardens are filled with sculptures of Greek gods and goddesses.'
Then you'll head to Paleokastritsa where you have free time to explore the Byzantine monastery or take an optional boat trip to the sea caves. From here, we'll head to the seaside village of Paleokastritsa. You'll have free time to visit the clifftop Orthodox monastery – admission is free – or the many coves with beaches. A boat trip can also be arranged. Next, there's a scenic drive to Bella Vista, so-called for its views over Paleo Bay. Finally, round off the day in the fishing village of Kassiopi. Soak up the sun on the pebbly beach, browse lace and linen in the shops or trek up to the castle ruins to take panoramic pics.
