HOME CORFU ISLAND EPIRUS & IONIAN OUR SERVICES FEEDBACK

Epirus & Ionian Islands

A holiday on Corfu offers the tourist much more than meet the eye !

Corfu is an ideal jumping off point for the Epirus and the Ionian Sea. 
Getting around is easy. The region abounds in natural beauty with forests, 
lakes, rivers, wetlands and majestic mountains just waiting for you to discover.

Then of course
there is the history.

Did you know that Antonio and Cleopatra were defeated by 
Augustus Caesar at Acteon, near Preveza ? Or that Peloponnesian War 
started just off the Corfu coast ? Or that Julius Caesar fought Pompeii 
for control of the Roman Empire in Epirus ?

There is so much to see and do:

Explore little-touched bays and beaches in Epirus or take a boat trip to the islands off the north of Corfu or to Parga with its exquisite bay dominated by a Venetian fort.

Experience the tranquil beauty of Paxos and the famous Blue Caves, or Lefkada's majestic mountains and beaches.

Visit famous ancient Greek and Roman sites at Kassopea, Nikopolis, Necromantio, Igoumenitsa or the Dodoni theatre near Ioannina.

Take a trip to Meteora where you can see the famous monasteries perched high up on cliff tops. Or visit historic Ioannina and see the remains of Ali Pasha's capital.

Explore untouched alpine Zagorochoria where you'll find the famous Vikos Gorge and nature reserve, old bridges and famous rivers such as Aoos, Sarandaporos and Voydomati. Nearby are ruins dating from King Pyrrhus' time.

Take an adventure tour off the beaten track; there are river journeys, climbs and walks in the Pindos range or zodiac boating in the Ionian to sample.
