Hop-on Hop-off Corfu Bus Tours

What is a Hop-on Hop-off tour?

A hop-on hop-off tour in Corfu is the easiest way to explore the island’s highlights without the stress of planning routes or driving. With two scenic lines covering stops like Mon Repos Palace, Spianada Square, and the stunning Achilleion Palace, you can hop off wherever you fancy and hop back on when you're ready; no pressure, no rigid timelines. Buses run every 20–60 minutes, and audio commentary in eight languages adds fascinating tidbits about Corfu’s rich Venetian, French, and British past. It’s a relaxed, fun way to soak in the best of Corfu at your own pace!

Tips to make the best of your Hop-on Hop-off Corfu tour

• The first buses (especially to Achilleion Palace) are less crowded. You'll get better photos, cooler weather, and more time to explore without the midday rush.
• For the best views of the coastline, fortresses, and Mouse Island, grab a left-side seat on the top deck when heading south from Corfu Town.
• If you only have 2 hours, do the Kanoni Line. It loops through more densely packed attractions, giving you a full Corfu Town experience even if you’re short on time.
• Bring a light scarf or hat. The Corfu sun can be intense, especially on the open-top deck. A scarf or hat helps block the sun and doubles as a cover-up at churches.
• Use Spilia stop to switch lines. Spilia Square is where both Kanoni and Achilleion lines meet, handy for switching routes midday without going all the way back to New Port.
• Take a short walk from Kanoni to the café by the runway. There’s a little café overlooking Corfu Airport’s runway. Grab a drink and watch planes land just over your head. It’s a surreal, local-favorite experience.
• Carry small change for snacks and toilets. Public restrooms in some stops, like Spianada or Old Port, may charge a small fee, and many kiosks still prefer coins over cards.
• Combine Spianada Square stop with lunch. There are lots of great tavernas tucked around Liston Arcade, a perfect place for a shaded lunch break after exploring the Old Fortress or Palace of St. Michael.
• Be ready for uneven cobblestones in Old Town. Wear comfy shoes with grip. The stone lanes are beautiful but can be slippery, especially after rain or along shaded parts of the route.
• Catch sunset from Perama or Garitsa Bay. End your day at either of these stops for dreamy views of the sun dipping behind Mouse Island or the sea reflecting Corfu Town’s rooftops.
