Private journeys in North Corfu
5 private journeys, each with its own vehicle and professional driver.
The north is where Corfu turns dramatic: cliffs falling straight into glass-coloured water at Cape Drastis, the monastery above Palaiokastritsa, the twin beaches of Porto Timoni that you reach on foot or admire from the ridge. It is also the half of the island with the longest drives, so these journeys are mostly six and eight hours. There is little sense in racing a road built for the view.

Choosing a day on Corfu
Corfu is longer than it looks. It is a little over eighty kilometres by road from the Sidari cliffs to Kavos and the road is rarely straight, so the honest question is not which sights you want but how far you are willing to drive between them. A half day covers the town, Kanoni and the Achilleion comfortably. A full day is what the north-west coast asks for: Palaiokastritsa, Cape Drastis and Porto Timoni sit far enough apart that rushing them wastes the drive.
Guests arriving by ship should start from the all-aboard time and work backwards. Our cruise-call journeys are planned that way, with a buffer built in, the port entrance fee paid and a drop at the gangway rather than the terminal gate.
If you have been to Corfu before, the south and the west repay a second visit far more than the postcard route does: the Korission lagoon, the dunes behind Halikounas and the long coast road home at golden hour. Browse by region when you know where you are staying, and by type when the shape of the day matters more than the map.
