Went to Corfu in 1981. Rented mopeds to get around. Thanks for sharing your trip.
hi
Yes Jon, I enjoyed the PBS series The Durrells in Corfu. It showed some real beauty but your post exceeded that.
No I haven't. Thanks for sharing
Paleokastritsa is also beautiful went there in 1986 great times, happy days. 🌞 ⛵ 🍺
I was in Greece 3 weeks ago and spent 4 days in Corfu.. It was the most amazing holiday I've had since covid.. The beaches are magnificent... I hired a car which i suggest you do, if you truly want to experience the island properly. And as a result I was also able to snorkel in about 10 beaches in different parts of the island. The Greeks are also very kind and nice... Kalispera to you wonderful people!!
You Americans have to understand one thing. Greece is not only Mykonos and Santorini. Europeans usually prefer different islands. And there are many of them
So true ☝🏻☝🏻
Thank you for that. I will be going to Greece this year in your opinion what is the most beautiful places to go? Is it Santorini or is there some place better?
@@razinejohnson4042 Paleokastritsa, Corfu...
@@razinejohnson4042 Check out Kefalonia. Really beautiful and more quiet
Dude. Less Americans the better man.
My favourite place to go is Corfu! I stayed in Roda and had two little girls aged 3 (difficult) in our family group and they didn’t want anything off the menu, they wanted sausage and chips 😳🤭. The waiter said it’s not a problem as I tried to convince them that they would like other choices on the menu. The waiter insisted that they would cook them sausage and chips. After everyone eating the basket of fresh bread and getting their main courses, I asked about my daughter and niece’s meals. They said that they would be two minutes, John they had sent someone on a moped to a town near Sidari for sausages for them. That is why I love Corfu, they aren’t just friendly but are genuinely nice people. The’Greek Night’s are always amazing in the taverna’s, by the way I love the shot of Adriana in the pool through the glass, what a cool print that would be! 😉
Nice! but your a weak parent
A couple of years ago, I visited New York for the very first time. I never found my self lost in the City thanks to your videos. I can remember my self spending hours watching your content having a great time. It was such a pleasant surprise seeing you in Greece. Hope that you and your wife had had a great time here. Keep up the great work!
"It feels like you're part of their family when you come to their restaurant". Yep! That's Greece in a sentence, and that's why we love it. Absolutely amazing people and culture. 🥰
I don’t know whether you know this but the late Prince Phillip, the husband of the Queen of England used to live in Corfu as a child. It’s a small world!
Peince phillip was actually greek royal family. The family was exiled in 20s.
Rest in piss
My ferry stopped at Corfu to drop off travelers. All i could see was lush countryside and tropical foliage. What a difference when i arrived to the barren rocky islands i did visit including Santorini. To this day I wish i got off Corfu for a visit
We love our island....and there is so much more...every village is different..and there are 220 villages to explore..all with donkey trails in between. Great for hiking!
Hello, My name is James and I'd like to be friends with you if you don't mind.
I'm from Corfu and your video popped up in my recommendations, it's good to see people like you showing our island to the rest of the world, if you ever come back, let me know and I will be more than happy to give you a tour around the island again and potentially show you more places that you indeed missed and didn't show sadly.
Alexakis! I'm Xavi from Barcelona. Next August i'm going to visit Corfu. Can you recommend some place that i have bound to visit (beach, town, landscape, anithing). I will stay in Paleokastritsa (Leapades). Thanks!!!!
@@xaviperarnauriera8857 Alright so since you are going in August, in the 15th of August I would suggest going to Corfu's highest mountain Pantokrator, then visit Canal D Amour, Logas the sunset beach (both Canal and Logas are close so visit both the same day). Then I would suggest going to Palaiokastritsa and try to rent a boat (with or without a driver, the beach there is crystal clear and blue) to take you to the beaches that can't be accessed by car like Paradise Beach and some more. Ai Gordis, Kontogialos and near beaches. Now for Landscape, I suggest Aggelokastro or also called the Castle of the Angel. Corfu town - old fortress, skyview cafe in Kanoni (you can watch planes pass by cause it's near the airport and it has a nice view) and last Kaisers throne (its a bit far from the Corfu town but it has a really nice view)
I was thinking about re-locating to Greece and Corfu was on my list.. do you recommend it as a year round place to live??
@@williamsmoltz1079 It depends on the person. During holidays Corfu is full of people but after that not so much. I recommend it but I don't know what you like.
@@alexakis1048 can we visit corfu early October ?
Please do Corfu again. There is so, so much more to show.
yeah,for example Kanoni
That old fortress built in the 6th Century! Wow! That is amazing how far back the history of places go. I love that cat just chilling in the window!
I spent 2 weeks in Corfu in 1985, what a place! Took the ferry over from Brindisi and would bypass that on the next visit as it was 8 hours long. However, the beaches on Corfu Island were fantastic !! May need to go back and see how it's changed since 85
I also took the ferry from Brindisi in 1985!!! during my months long backpacking trip. Sadly I never left the ferry and went on to Santorini. Big mistake.
1985 😮 really 😅
Talk about euphoria!..wow..those beaches and hotels are to die for, good memories to share with your grandchildren!👍👍🙂
I went to Corfu a few years ago, loved it.
What resort did you go to I’m hoping to go for the first time in the summer to Sidari
Corfu is amazong... I went 4 times on my own one year as I felt so safe and welcomed! La Grotta bar in Paleokastritsa is the best bar ever with amazing views... They filmed a James Bond film there! ♥️
Amazing oops 😊
Is Sidari nice? What resort would you recommend best beaches and good nightlife 🤗
Corfu is the best! My favourite place ❤ So looking forward to being back there next month 🇬🇷👙🌴
Wow!!!!! Everything looked so beautiful. That hotel & grounds were amazing. Loved looking at the different sights & walkways. What a glorious trip. I'm sure you & Lady A gad a grand time, happy for you.
Thanks so much
My favorite destination in whole Europe :) love it!
Thank you for another great video everything looks great there in Italy that you got to visit. Santorini looked great but that area looks even more majestic
We took a yellow boat (nyc taxi livery) from the beach at Sidari and headed west, the waters were absolutely crystal clear to the bottom, we dropped anchor and realised that they were thirty feet deep. After 10 minutes their was beach after beach with tall cliffs with absolutely nobody on them (you could only access them by only boat). It was the highlight of our hols, the children could be left to be themselves and enjoy the beach free of other people etc... I always hire a boat now! 🥰
if you mean Canal d Amour it´s 15 min from the center and you can swim into the cave and if you swim through the cave you can swim to other rocks if you are a good swimmer. I did it and absolutely loved it!
Seems like such a neat spot! We'll have to check it out at some point! Great video!
Village Taverna looks like a real gem. That lamb 🤤🤤
That place is so you and Jumi
Kassiopi is another beautiful gem on Corfu.
People are nice and gracious everywhere I go, but Greece was a standout. Sit down at a restaurant: “here’s a free grappa while you look, why not try a free dakos, then we’ll take your order.”
“We’ll take our bill, please.” Ok, sure. In the meantime, here’s a free plate of melon, and the another free grappa, then a free coffee….then the bill. Such sweet, generous and warm people. We loved our trip and are planning another. Greece is truly a gem in this world.
Would love to make it to Corfu someday! The Ionian islands have such a different look compared to those in the Aegean
I love Greece it is my fantasy vacation
Been to Corfu about 18 times in my life. Absolutely one of the most beautiful and friendliest places to visit and stay. We normally stay at the north of the island in Acharavi. So many great tavernas up there. When we do visit Corfu, we stay in the self catering apartments. The owners are always welcoming and so pleasant. You just have to visit every square inch of the island. Arilas west of Corfu is where we are going again for the second time ! With the whole fam. Can not wait. Great vid mate! You ever visit Corfu again, be sure to visit Achilleas palace. Beautiful.
Hi I hope you reply because I’m hoping to go to Corfu for the first time and we’re thinking about going to Sidari please let me know if it’s a nice resort , I’ve done most of the Greek islands but never done Corfu and everyone says sidari is lovely
@@sarahjane8949 Hiya. Sidari is a great place to visit ! Lots of shops and restaurants to visit. And quite a few bars also :). You have Roda round the corner and a bit further up is Acharavi, which is one of the places I’ve most visited. I recommend hiring a car from your apartment whether you’re staying or simply getting the bus as it’s a lot cheaper than a taxi out there :).
I highly recommend Achilles palace as it’s beautiful and also a must visit is paleokastritsa (excuse my spelling). I really hope you enjoy your visit to Corfu. I’m going in early June and will be uploading some Corfu content :). Hope you have lovely time !!
@@user-zd4oj3gu2e oh thank you so I heard Roda is nice too and thank you for telling me it’s near sidari 🤗🤗🤗 so appreciated
Corfu and the other Ionian islands had almost always western influences , from architecture to local music and cuisine. A great example of the amazing diversity of landscape and local cultures you can find in Greece. And that's only the islands, wait until you discover the mountains in the mainland...
My wife and I went 3 times to a great taverna in Athens by the church in the plaka. And we found out the owner grew up in Bensonhurst,. There’s no escaping Brooklyn.
I can related with Adriana, the cats always like my husband more too.
What a beautiful island!
It really surprised us.
Corfu is the best Greek Island. Period.
💖🌷💖🌷💖 WOW, So beautiful !
Finally in English(I don’t have to translate anymore)😁😸😀😄😃😬😆
After watching the Durells in Corfu I became very interested in the island. Maybe on my next trip to Europe.
Excellent series on Greece. Corfu looks amazing. Had to cancel Greece in 2020. Definitely adding Corfu to my list.
You should!
Greetings from your mom, she liked the video very much, looking forward for your next Greece video🙀😁😄😸
Thank you! 😃
Great call on the points redemption on that hotel
😙😙😙
So jealous! Corfu has been on my bucket list for a while now- now I know where to eat and stay! Also loved Adriana's workout! LOL
hahaha Adriana's "workout"
This whole trip looks so beautiful
Thanks Chris
I've been waiting for a Corfu vlog. Nicely shot. 👍 Ipsos Beach is my favourite place on the island. It's not flashy - just really laid back with nice people and an awesome beach. Fingers crossed for 2022 🌞
Im Going to Agios Gordios in Corfu in about 1 month and now im watching this video I cant wait!
Great video!
The best place in the world
The food is amazing! And the beaches too 😎
Looks amazing. So many cool things to do and see. The food looks fantastic
I ❤️ ur vids keep up the good work
If they only cleaned beaches a little bit,is it so hard to pull can out from 30 cm of water?
Awesome video and great delivery! My brother is going back next year and we will join him. Now that I have seen your video, I can't wait to go! Thank you so much!
We are going to Corfu in May
We were in Kefalonia last year - beautiful
❤🇬🇷
Again, man, you’re living a CHARMED LIFE! This place is literally “once in a lifetime”-level Beautiful!
Thanks Ed :)
Ive just come back from paleokastritsa , i loved it and will b3 going back
How beautiful and neat! My husband and I went to Greece and I’m kicking myself for things I missed. Nice tan btw
Ωρε...
I’m headed to Corfu in May and I will most definitely eat at Village Taverna!
WOW CORFU seems a to visit place!!! very good hotel!!
Can’t believe you found the Village Taverna, I actually proposed to my wife there 16 years ago and Nicholas hasn’t changed a bit!!!
If you go back tell him i said hi :)
Albanian island!Greetings from Republic of Macedonia!
I have only been to Watertown New York and I loved it I took 700.00 and bought Christmas shopping
You missed the summer residency of the Austrian Queen Sisi!
It’s not very big but amazingly beautiful and the history of the location as well as the history of Queen Elizabeth as a person is just as fascinating!
Could you consider doing a financial breakdown of your time in Greece with a rough schedule? I'll be in NY this fall, but Greece is in my top 5 places for after that.
Πολύ ωραίο βίντεο 👍🇬🇷
You forgot one thing that Corfu was once a temporary place for Serbs to rest during the World War I period. Many Serbs starved, died and they were ill, thus they were buried at Vido Island and a Serbian musician Milutin Bojic made a song dedicated to the Blue Tomb. There were many museums and many cosmetics about Serbs there living until 1916 and 1917 they left Corfu to go on Macedonian Front.
Corfu is the best, beautiful
Cool video
I loved Corfu and lucky have visited this beautiful island
We were hoping you would mention St. PHILOMENA and show us where she lived. She is what brought us to look up Corfu.
Jons been feeding the members of the Barrio well with the content !
1:00..This also is similar to Cadiz in Spain…or, actually, from what I remember, a bit like parts of San Juan, Puerto Rico
Thanks for the tips mate! I'm going to Corfu in two weeks :)
God bless you my brothet. Stay safe.
So Beautiful!! Enjoy Guys!!
Hello. Thx so much for the tip on beach shoes for the rocky sea/beach floor. Many thx.
super :-}
Well you certainly are living the life of Reilly and that’s some hotel room.
Adriana certainly was in good form working out there , and John your certainly worked out with those shots 😂😂😂
Village Taverna needs to open a spot in NYC, maybe even just a stall in Jackson Heights
i'd be IN
Was in corfu few weeks back amazing place
Ok now I’m jealous lol 🇨🇦❤️
Im going to Corfu tomorrowww!❤
Love it there
We got him to the Greek
hahaha
@@HereBeBarr Sometimes you must tell the bad jokes in order to appreciate the great ones, context.
I read about the island in the thrilling historic book UNDER THE SPELL OF A MYTH: Empress Sisi in Greece. Interesting to follow the Empress on her cross-country hikes 125 years later!
That awesome
Beautiful overview of Corfu. Makes me want to get lost in greece
Looks amazing. Less crowded than other parts of Greece. Or maybe you just found the quiet part
Looks amazing !
Great job, thank you for your video
That was EXCELLENT!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good video guys butI hope you don't mind but have to correct your subtitles for the taverna owner in the village at timestamp 9:16, it drink is known as Tsipouro not tequila, it is the taste of life itself .
You should have tried the Bella vista restaurant too, further up the hill
.. It's amazing 😁
The view from up there is amazing.
Great stuff.
Where there are cats there are no rats! NYC could use a lot of cats! Nice review, thanks for the hotel tip.
Great place
And to think Barr does it all in Converse hi tops! My feet would be killing me! lol.
Surprisingly confortable
I’m going on holiday here in a week
I’m worried about the water temperature. Is it really that cold ? My kids won’t like it. We are planning to go in August
You sir are a lucky man
Is the greenest island in all of Greece
Why was the water cold? What month was it please? I'm planning to go there in June and was hoping for warmer water. Thanks :)
Where exactly is this Village taverna? it looks amazing but we are on corfu right now and there are a couple of these Village taverna's 😅
🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍
I'm from corfu!
I live there and it's good :)
