The view of Mouse Island from Kanoni, the Achillion Palace and the Paleokastritsa area are regarded as the ‘Holy Trinity’ of Corfu’s must-see attractions and are justly the focus of the island’s most popular coach trip, the Grand Island Tour. However, visitors on the tour are constrained by a strict timetable, by the presence of a crowd, and by the size of the coach. But with your own car and our app-based guide, you can opt for a personal Grand Island Tour, taking it at your own pace and enjoying your own space. You may stop and shop where you want, eat and swim where you choose, and enjoy supplementary activities and sights not available to coach passengers on a tight schedule, while our audio guide and clear maps guide you with confidence around the island’s favourite landmarks.
This trip includes the above-mentioned ‘Holy Trinity must-sees’, but in addition, it visits other top sights not included on the coach-based tours: Mon Repos Park, the Kaiser’s Throne Viewpoint, Angelokastro Fortress and Old Makrades Village. Three extra museums are also recommended for a stop (featuring archaeology, a terrarium with live reptiles, and olive oil production), plus there are three walks to take in if you choose, and possibly a boat trip.
