Greece - Corfu

Search for holidays to...
Corfu is more elegant and worldly than its Ionian cousins, thanks to wealthy Venetian merchants who left their legacy in the pastel houses and refined squares of Corfu Town. As the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean, Crete can be simple and rustic, or stylish and sophisticated. The landscape is slashed with gorges and valleys, dominated at every turn by dark mountains. The largest in the Ionain chain, Kefalonia is a mystical place of underground lakes and bare mountains, made famous by Captain Corelli. Beautiful Sanorini is thought to be the former site of the lost City of Atlantis. Its blue domed churches and unique volcanic landscape have achieved cult status.
Take in Crete's magnificent Samaria Gorge, one of the longest in Europe. Admire Mount Ainos on Kefalonia, the highest peak in the Ionian, and Melissani Cave with its underground lake. Discover countless delightful coves and bays by boat. See the Venetian fortifications of Corfu Town. Explore Crete's fascinating past in the palace of Knossos and at Heraklion's Archaeological Museum. Visit Rhodes' old town, the finest walled city in Europe. See the spectacular son et lumière shows in Corfu and Rhodes. Sail to Mount Athos, the mysterious third finger of Halkidiki. Explore spectacular Fira on Santorini or bustling Rhodes Town. Absorb wonderful views across Kos Town from Asklepion, a religious sanctuary and treasured ancient site.
