NICOLE 56 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 Has anyone been to Corfu on a ship? Not sure what to do when we get to port Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iknowlescourier 207 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 Lovely place. You can get a shuttle from the terminal (otherwise about a 30 min, but boring walk to the old town). There is a local one that is cheaper than the shuttles provided by the cruise line (if P&O it is £3 per person each way). You will be dropped off close to the old town where there are lots of lovely little shops to purchase gifts. Walk through the old town and you will come out at a large open park area with restaurants alongside. Beyond the park is the old fortress (reasonable entrance fee) which is worth checking out and a great 360 degree view from the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rachel 44 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 I recently went to corfu on ventura, as kite63 says you can get the shuttle for £3pp, we really enjoyed walking around all the little streets. There was a lovely little park where we sat for a while whilst my daughter played in the park. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rita123 16 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 my friend has just cruised on the Ventura, one of the ports was Corfu (corfu town) and she said there was also a small island you could go across to and visit...more time on water but she said it was fab! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emidex 1 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 We visited Corfu last month on the Aurora and were pleasantly surprised. Its a lovely old town with lots gift shops and narrow streets to wander around. We didn't take any transport into the town as it was within easy walking distance, about a 10min stroll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When we were there on Ventura in May this year the ship was berthed some distance from the 'Old Town'. P&O put on a shuttle to the dock gate... You can just see the shuttle buses at the gangway.

loz6 136 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 I did corfu this year from Ventura, i love greece anyway but had never done corfu before. I wasnt too keen on corfu town maybe because it was really busy as we were wondering around. We took a taxi to dassia to the beach which was lovely. As with other greek islands i have visited found it very friendly, good prices and love the food!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
