Corfu Walking Food Tour- A private experience in Corfu Itinerary
The walking tour starts at the Old Fortress entrance where you will meet your private guide. The Old Fortress entrance in Corfu town is one of the most popular tourist attractions on the island. The fortress was built by the Venetians in the 16th century to protect the town from pirates and invaders. Today, it is a well-preserved example of Venetian architecture, and visitors can explore the cobbled streets and atmospheric passageways.
The first stop is at a local bakery. A traditional Greek breakfast served in a tiny bakery in the center of Corfu Town is the ideal way to start your adventure. Enjoy the best Greek pastries, including cheese pies, "Bougatsa" (a phyllo-encased custard pie), and "Loukoumades." Additionally, you can enjoy a refreshing glass of gingerbeer, Corfu's local soft drink that the British first brought to the island back in the 19th century
Then it's time to start your exploration of Corfu town. Corfu Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it's easy to see why. The picturesque city is filled with beautiful Venetian buildings, which have been carefully preserved over the centuries.
