It is a land that combines a sophisticated atmosphere, verdant hillsides, sparkling blue waters and long sandy beaches. It is no wonder that it attracts thousands of visitors each year, all of whom agree that Corfu Island is the ultimate spot for either a singles vacation or for a family holiday.
The history of the island is complex and eventful, making the Corfu island one of the prime destinations in Greece for sightseeing and cultural tours. Corfu is a blend of Greek, Venetian, British, French and Russian features, which create a most unusual and very attractive environment.
There are mountains where eagles soar and rare orchids flourish, and there is the beautiful and bustling capital, Corfu Town which exudes an aristocratic aura, - named on the UNESCO World Heritage Site- with sophisticated shopping and cosmopolitan restaurants.
