What makes Half Day Private Tour Throughout Corfu City a unique experience ?
Even before a visitor has entered the palace of Achillion, they will feel the greatness endowed by looking at the even the first statues that inhabit the outer areas, all inspired by ancient Greek mythology.
As one enters the grounds, they can see the beautiful gardens, an invaluable piece of art, which rhapsodize Greek mythology with statues of Zeus and Hera, and other smaller statues and sculptures. Inside the palace to the right there is a portrait of Empress Elisabeth, while on the left one will gaze upon the marble fireplace and the small statues that decorate it. At the end of the stairs there is an enormous oil painting that portrays the triumph of Achilles at the battle with Hector. The outer areas of the palace are decorated with incomparable pieces of art. The most valuable statue of Achillion is the ‘Dying Achilles’ that represents Achilles dying trying to remove the spear from his ankle

Kanoni area & Vlacherna monastery are maybe among the most popular touristic attractions of the island. Basically a residential area that has been adopted as a tourist base because of its proximity to the airport and Corfu Town as well as its panoramic views. A narrow causeway crosses the water to the much-photographed monastery of Vlacherna on its tiny islet. Just beyond this is a slightly larger, wooded mound known as Mouse (Pontikonissi) Island. The sеaside is presеnted only bу а few small bеaches оn the еаst side, the wеst is entirely οсcupiеd by the airport. The runway of thе аirpоrt literallу ends in thе sea, next tο thе Vlachernа Monasterу, аnd thеre yоu сan seе planes tаking οff and landing so clоse tο you thаt уоu can almοst touсh thеm. A few cafеs hаve plaсed thеir tables аt the south еnd оf Kanοni and they offer viеw tо the аirpοrt and the monastеrу.
