Here are the different modes of transportation available to you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"public-transport\">Public Transport<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Corfu has a reliable public transportation system that includes buses and ferries. Buses are the most popular way to get around the island, and they run regularly from early morning until late at night. The buses are affordable, and you can buy tickets at the bus station or onboard the bus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"car-rentals\">Car Rentals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to explore Corfu at your own pace, renting a car is a great option. There are many car rental companies on the island, and you can choose from a variety of vehicles. Keep in mind that driving in Corfu can be challenging, especially in the narrow streets of the old town. However, having a car gives you the freedom to explore the island&#8217;s hidden gems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"scooter\">Scooter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great option is to rent a scooter to get around Corfu. This is what I did and I loved having the freedom to get around, not to mention being able to easily find parking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"taxis\">Taxis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Taxis are widely available on the island, and they are a convenient way to get around if you don&#8217;t want to drive. Taxis in Corfu are metered, and the rates are regulated by the government. However, keep in mind that taxi fares can be expensive, especially if you&#8217;re traveling long distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-scenic.jpg\" alt=\"Spanakopita\" class=\"wp-image-82012\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-scenic.jpg 850w, https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-scenic-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-time-to-visit-corfu\">Best Time to Visit Corfu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Corfu is an island that has a Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild winters. Here are some things to keep in mind when deciding when to go:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Summer (June-August):<\/strong>&nbsp;This is peak tourist season in Corfu, with hot temperatures and crowded beaches. If you&#8217;re looking for a lively atmosphere and plenty of activities, this is the time to go. Just be prepared for higher prices and longer lines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spring (April-May) and Fall (September-October):<\/strong>&nbsp;These shoulder seasons offer milder temperatures and fewer crowds. You&#8217;ll still be able to enjoy the beaches and outdoor activities, but with a more relaxed vibe. Plus, you may be able to snag some deals on accommodations and flights. Keep in mind that some places like restaurants, etc might be closed, though.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Winter (November-March):<\/strong>&nbsp;While Corfu doesn&#8217;t get as cold as other parts of Europe, winter is still the off-season. Many hotels and restaurants close during this time, and some activities may not be available. However, if you&#8217;re looking for a quiet getaway and don&#8217;t mind cooler temperatures, this could be a good option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Season<\/th><th>Best For<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Spring (April to May)<\/td><td>Mild weather, fewer crowds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Summer (June to August)<\/td><td>Beaches, parties, events<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Autumn (September to October)<\/td><td>Mild weather, fewer crowds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Winter (November to March)<\/td><td>Quiet, natural beauty<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-get-to-corfu\">How to Get to Corfu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"by-air\">By Air<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most popular and definitely the easiest way to get to Corfu is by air. The island has its own international airport, the Ioannis Kapodistrias Airport, which is located just a few kilometers south of Corfu Town. There are lots of direct flights from many European cities, including London, Paris, and Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re traveling from outside of Europe, you may need to make a connection in Athens or another major European city. The flight from Athens to Corfu takes just under an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"by-ferry\">By Ferry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another option for getting to Corfu is by ferry. There are regular ferry services from the Greek mainland, as well as from other islands in the Ionian Sea. The ferry ride from Igoumenitsa on the mainland takes around 1.5 hours, while the journey from Paxos takes just 1 hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-beach-restaurant.jpg\" alt=\"Spanakopita\" class=\"wp-image-82013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-beach-restaurant.jpg 850w, https:\/\/nohurrytogethome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/corfu-itinerary-beach-restaurant-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"safety-tips-for-corfu\">Safety Tips for Corfu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I felt very safe in Corfu in general, so safety isn&#8217;t a huge issue. With that said, here are a few tips to keep in mind so your vacation doesn&#8217;t get ruined:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Watch out for pickpockets.<\/strong>&nbsp;Pickpocketing can be a problem in crowded areas, so be sure to keep your valuables close to you and be aware of your surroundings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay hydrated.<\/strong>&nbsp;The heat in Corfu can be intense during the summer months, so be sure to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use sunscreen.<\/strong>&nbsp;The sun can be strong in Corfu, so be sure to use sunscreen with a high SPF to protect your skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be cautious when swimming.<\/strong>&nbsp;The waters around Corfu can be rough at times, so be sure to swim in designated areas and follow any warnings or advisories from local authorities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be respectful of local customs.<\/strong>&nbsp;Corfu is a popular tourist destination, but it&#8217;s also a place where people live and work.

Don&#8217;t forget to bring a hat and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Swimwear:<\/strong>&nbsp;Corfu is known for its beautiful beaches, so don&#8217;t forget to pack your swimwear. You may also want to bring a cover-up or sarong for when you&#8217;re not in the water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Comfortable shoes:<\/strong>&nbsp;While sandals are a popular choice, it&#8217;s also a good idea to bring a pair of comfortable walking shoes for exploring the island&#8217;s cobblestone streets and hiking trails.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mosquito repellent:<\/strong>&nbsp;Mosquitoes can be a nuisance, especially during the summer months. Be sure to pack mosquito repellent to avoid bites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sunscreen:<\/strong>&nbsp;With plenty of sunny days, it&#8217;s important to protect your skin from the sun&#8217;s harmful rays, so pack a high SPF sunscreen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adapters: <\/strong>Greece has two types of plugs, namely C and F.
