The Channel of Love is a natural masterpiece, perhaps the only one in the Mediterranean. It is an opening created by the corrosive effect of the water and the air above the cliff made of sandstone. With each year that passes, the continuous effects of the elements of nature change the natural environment of the Channel of Love creating in some parts canals with turquoise waters and in other parts small caves and bights. Agios Stefanos is a long sandy beach in the region of Avliotes, 6 km north west of Sidari. Surrounded by lush greenery, this lovely beach has crystal water and soft sand. Delicious taverns and cafeterias line up the beach as well as many hotels and rooms to let. This is a quiet and calm place ideal for families and people who want to relax. Optional lunch is a restaurant next to the beach. Porto Timoni is a unique beach, hidden and not very known, below Afionas village. Actuallly, there are two different beaches which are separated by a small strip of land. The small one is Limni and the big one is Porto Timoni. As a matter of fact, this location is wonderful as grassy, dense hills end on these two beaches, one with regular blue waters and the second with deep blue waters. These coves as you will find out have distinctive water temperatures. To go to Porto Timoni you have to follow the path that, starts from the small square of Afionas. The duration of the passage until the shore finish in around 20 minutes but, it is necessary be cautious as the road, even though it is a walk, is brusque and in many spots craggy.

Clearly this is a quite unknown beach and thus you need to have a bottle of water and all the necessities in order to stay there. You could stay on the path towards the lip of the peninsula that, reaches to the church of Agios Stylianos which is built in a small cave.

Eirini gave us such a personal, pleasant and fulfilling tour of the beautiful island of Corfu. When we first met, she asked many questions to decide what to do and where to take us -- she did not disappoint. We couldn't have asked for a better day in Corfu; we spent time at a local beach where we were able to take a boat and explore nearby caves, sampled baklava and local beer at a small establishment high in the hills overlooking the glorious crystal clear turquoise water, and then spent some time shopping in Corfutown. Corfutown is a quaint, charming "village" with many shops, restaurants and attractions to visit with such interesting history. Eirini was extremely nice, knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. Needless to say, this excursion was well worth the time and money.

We had the whole van to our own family of 7, van was clean and nice. Our driver Marcos was on time to pick us up from the port on time. He's very knowledgeable and speaks excellent English. We enjoyed visiting Corfu old town the most. We wish we could be there longer. Once booking is made make, it's important to message to indicate pickup time from the port.
