Explore Corfu live with a local

Sessions run live, not as a recording: you join at a time in your own time zone, and the guide follows whatever you want to see or ask about. Campiello is worth asking about: the old town's Venetian core, its lanes too narrow for cars.

Every date has a minimum group size: if it does not fill up, it is cancelled and you are refunded in full automatically. Small groups, real answers, no script.

  • Old Fortress (Palaio Frourio) A Venetian-built fortress on a rocky promontory, guarding the town's harbour since the 16th century.
