Corfu Private Jeep Tour to Palaiokastritsa, Lakones and Aggelokastro (CFU20)
Activity Description
Discover Aggelokastro, Lakones, and Paleokastritsa in a private half-day tour through lush vegetation routes and traditional Corfiot villages, panoramic breathtaking views of West Corfu, and explore the magnificent bays with the crystal clear blue waters in a premium 4x4 vehicle.
Our day starts after we pick you up from your hotel or a point close to the indicated hotel in Corfu if car access is not possible, and we will follow a route through Corfiot villages heading towards the western part of the island to Aggelokastro. Angelokastro - “Castle of Angels” is located at the top of the highest peak of the island’s shoreline on the northwest coast near Paleokastritsa and is one of the most important Byzantine castles of Greece. A stunning view of the Corfu west coast and the amazing terrain provides an ideal spot to admire the view, shoot some panoramic photos, and refresh ourselves. Continuing our route through Lakones village with its surroundings is also known as Bella Vista, one of the top 10 views in Europe, and along the road in and out of the village, we will find a cafeteria where we will stop to enjoy the view while enjoying our coffee or tea. After our coffee stop, we follow a route from the top of the hill down to Paleokastritsa. Paleokastritsa is one of the most celebrated and attractive spots on Corfu island, coves with incredibly clear water surrounded by olive, cypress, and lemon trees. The lush vegetation and landscape combine blue and green waters with picturesque rocky bays and the famous Byzantine monastery of Panagia Paleokastritissa, with a small museum. Visit the Monastery of The Virgin Mary in Paleokastritsa and take in superb views over the sea, and the rock that is said to be Odysseus' ship turned to stone.
When we are driving back to Corfu town and your drop-off point, you will be full of memories from the best views of Western Corfu, amazing photo opportunities, and the premium service of our escorts.
