Notes from the road.
What we would tell you in the car, written down. Mostly practical, occasionally opinionated, never sponsored.
Seeing the Old Town without the crowds
Two hours, three entrances, and the hour the Liston empties.
What four hours ashore actually buys you
A realistic plan, with honest driving times.
Corfu with children: seven stops that work
Shallow water, shade, and food they will actually eat.
Achilleion: which entrance, which hour, what to skip
A small palace that everybody sees in the same ninety minutes.
Palaiokastritsa by road, not by boat
The boat is inside the picture. The road is where you see it.
Corfu port to the Old Town: the walk, the shuttle, the taxi
Two kilometres, three options, and the quay nobody warns you about.
What a tender day changes about your plans
The last tender, not all-aboard, is the number that decides the day.
Corfu beaches that work with a pushchair
Flat parking, a made surface, real shade, and a toilet you can get into.
Flying into Corfu with small children
Almost every northern flight lands late. Everything else follows.
