You step from the shaded lane into light: a ribbon of coastal road unfurls toward Paleokastritsa where bays collect the Ionian Sea like polished glass. The private vehicle eases along cliffs and the air carries salt and thyme; the guide points out the whitewash monastery perched above a blue bowl of water. For the next four hours the tour alternates between dramatic seaside scenery and the compressed history of Corfu town’s narrow streets.
