About this activity

Escape the crowds and discover the authentic heart of Corfu aboard a Vespa®.

Designed for experienced motorcycle and maxi-scooter riders, this carefully crafted Vespa® experience follows scenic country roads, winding mountain routes, and picturesque traditional villages, taking you far beyond the island's most visited locations.

Ride through the beautiful villages of Lakones and Krini, admire breathtaking panoramic viewpoints, and visit Angelokastro, one of Corfu's most impressive Byzantine fortresses.

The experience also includes a visit to a traditional olive oil museum, followed by a relaxing stop at a charming village kafeneion, where you can enjoy refreshments and a light local snack before continuing your journey.

Of course, no visit would be complete without experiencing the spectacular beauty of Palaiokastritsa, one of Corfu's most iconic coastal destinations.

Itinerary

Enotis - Olive Groves & Museum

30 min Admission included

The Enotis Museum offers visitors a journey through the history of the Corfiot olive tree, olive oil, and the local traditional olive oil production. Placed in a picturesque location on the hill of Vistonas and not far from Palaiokastritsa Bay, the Museum is a must-see place for every visitor to Corfu Island.
Angelokastro

45 min Admission included

Angelokastro (castle of Angels) is one of the most important fortified complexes of Byzantine Corfu. Getting to Angelokastro will require about an hour driving from Corfu town but the beauty of the area will reward you for your effort. The view from the castle is breathtaking.
Lakones

20 min

The village of Lakones is a gorgeous settlement near the cosmopolitan area of Paleokastritsa in western Corfu. This village boasts a beautiful view of the landscape, the Ionian Sea, and the Bay of Paleokastritsa, situated at an altitude of over 180 meters above sea level! Here, you will enjoy a refreshment and a light snack while admiring the Palaioakstritsa view from above!
Kaiser's Throne

20 min Admission included

Between 1908 and the first world war, Kaiser Wilhelm II spent his summers at Achillion Palace but his favorite location was the village of Pelekas where he wants to build the Achillion palace in the first place. It’s not difficult to understand why. Standing at his “throne” you have a 360-degree panoramic view of the island and one of the most impressive sunsets.
Corfu Old Town

5 min

As we return back to our office and meeting point we will pass by Corfu old town, the old fortress, the Spianada square, the Liston, the Palace of St. Michael and St. George, Mouragia, the old port area, and the new fortress.
