Plan your ultimate road trip with these popular one-way routes departing from Corfu
Popular Driving Routes & Trips From Corfu (Kerkyra), Greece
Scenic Self-Drive Routes:
Corfu Town to Paleokastritsa Scenic Coast Drive
A classic Corfu drive that quickly leaves the UNESCO-listed old town area behind for lush hills, sea views, and one of the island’s most photographed bays. Ideal for a half-day with time to swim, visit the monastery, and stop at lookout points along the way.
North Corfu Highlights Loop (Kassiopi–Mount Pantokrator–Acharavi)
A varied loop that mixes harbor vibes in Kassiopi with panoramic mountain views from Pantokrator and an easy coastal finish through the north shore. Expect narrow village roads in places but rewarding scenery throughout.
West Coast Sunset Route (Glyfada–Pelekas–Myrtiotissa)
A short, high-reward route for beach hopping and sunset chasing on Corfu’s west coast. You’ll pass some of the island’s best sand beaches and end near classic sunset viewpoints around Pelekas.
Popular Day Trips By Car:
Corfu Town & Kanoni Half-Day Drive
Perfect for your first day with the car: combine Corfu Town’s old fortress/old streets with the iconic Kanoni viewpoint over Mouse Island (Pontikonisi). Park once where possible and explore on foot.
Achilleion Palace & Benitses Seaside Lunch
A straightforward south-of-town outing pairing the Achilleion Palace area with an easy coastal stop in Benitses for a swim or relaxed seafood meal by the water.
Paleokastritsa Swim + Viewpoints Day Trip
Spend the day around Paleokastritsa’s coves: choose a beach, visit the monastery, and add a short boat rental or water taxi to reach quieter spots when seas are calm.
North Corfu: Kassiopi & Old Perithia Village
A full-day north escape: enjoy Kassiopi’s harbor atmosphere, then drive up to Old Perithia, a stone village on Pantokrator’s slopes, for an inland contrast to the coast.
Car Rental Planning Tips For Corfu
Check license rules before you fly: Bring your physical driver’s license. If your license is not EU/EEA, many rental desks may ask for an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside your home license—confirm with your rental company in advance.
Understand insurance and the deposit hold: Clarify what’s included (CDW, theft protection) and what the excess is. If you rely on third-party coverage, expect a larger credit-card deposit hold at pickup.
Use a credit card in the main driver’s name: Most suppliers require a credit card (not debit) for the security deposit, and it must match the main driver’s name. Verify deposit amount and accepted card types before booking.
Plan for narrow roads and village driving: Corfu’s rural roads can be tight with sharp bends and limited shoulders. Choose a smaller car for easier passing/parking, and drive slower than you would on mainland highways.
Factor in parking near Corfu Town: Corfu Town can be congested, especially in peak season. Use official lots when possible, and avoid entering restricted areas; walking the old town is often faster than driving through it.
Refuel with timing in mind: Fuel stations are plentiful around Corfu Town and along main roads, but fewer in remote areas late at night. Don’t let the tank drop too low before heading into mountain villages or the far north/south.
Drive early for beaches and sunsets: Arrive earlier for popular beaches (Glyfada, Paleokastritsa area) to secure parking. For sunsets on the west coast, allow extra time for slow traffic and limited roadside parking near viewpoints.
