Why this trip
The writer Gerald Durrell experienced Corfu as a child in his books, as a playground full of animals, olive groves and coves. If you come with children today, you will find much of this again: green hills, fishing harbours and beaches with calm water. May to June and September to October are the most pleasant months, and the flight time is about 2.5 to 3 hours. The old town of Corfu, Venetian in character, can be explored on foot, with narrow lanes, squares and cafés where children get an ice cream.
The fortresses at the edge of the town offer walls and views that children like to climb. Afterwards drive to one of the island's shallow beaches, as one day of culture and one day of swimming is a good rhythm for families. On the island the distances are manageable, yet a hire car is worthwhile so that you are flexible and children do not sit long on buses. Zakynthos, Thessaloniki and Athens are neighbouring destinations on the mainland or other islands, but one week of Corfu is enough by itself.
Choose a room with space and shade. You discuss all the details with Swiss Vibes in a video call.
