\n
Travelling to the capital of Corfu - Kerkyra<\/div >\n

The city of Corfu or Kerkira is different from many other Greek cities. Its development is reminiscent of the fact that the Venetians ruled over it for many years before the British took control for another 50 years.<\/p>\n <\/div >\n \n \n Kerkyra   →<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>

A walk in the hotel environment - always uphill!<\/div >\n

Corfu airport<\/a><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By boat<\/strong>
There are several ferries to Corfu. For example, a car ferry from Albania (Saranda) or from numerous Italian cities (for example Brindisi, Bari, Venice). There is a ferry connection to the Greek mainland between Igoumenitsa and Kavos (destination port Lefkimmi).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important ferry port is in Corfu Town. Cruise ships also dock here.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\n

On the way in \u2026<\/summary>
\n

By car<\/strong>
If you would like to discover the Greek island, it is best to hire a car. They are offered in almost every tourist town. You should carry a good road map with you. The road signs are often chaotic. Even the signage to the island’s capital varies, with different spellings used for the same place. For example, \u039a\u03ad\u03c1\u03ba\u03c5\u03c1\u03b1, K\u00e9rkyra, Corfu, or there are no road signs at all. You should only leave the roads marked in red if there is no other way. Driving on smaller roads can be quite adventurous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The islanders know the roads very well. They often drive fast and take risks. You therefore have to pay close attention on the narrow and winding roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By bus<\/strong>
There is a well-developed bus network on the island. This connects the tourist resorts of Roda, Acharavi or Paleokastritsa with the island’s capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Near the capital, blue buses travel to nearby villages. The green buses travel all over the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fares are quite reasonable and tickets can be bought directly from the driver. If you want to board an arriving bus, you have to give the driver a hand signal to stop.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\n
