Achillion Palace & Old Corfu Town (Casa Parlante)

 

 

Departing from the port, your coach follows the road leading out of town; soon you are in the lush Corfiot countryside. Kerkyra is the most verdant of all the Greek Islands and this becomes at once apparent as you are driven through orange, lemon cypress and olive groves, interspersed with vineyards and fields carpeted with beautiful wild flowers, like a garden in Paradise which has been decorated by the Gods themselves.
