Taste Corfu's award-winning EVOO at The Governor's Olive Mill. Tour old and modern presses, sample local bites, visit 1,500-year groves.
“The tour was really educational. We appreciated the little extras that the driver made for us to explore the surroundings. The guide was super interesting. She made a good description of all the steps (old and recent) to produce olive oil. The little museum is nice to see. The tasting was also a plus. A great tour!!”
Shop Corfu’s market with Yorgos, cook in a countryside villa with a chef, then tour olive groves and taste olive oil.
“We had a very interesting and enjoyable day! The day started with a visit to the local fish market guided by Yorgos who told us all about the city and Corfu culture along the way. Afterwards we went to the country house where he and his family had prepared a cooking lesson with the products we purchased. We learned to prepare a complete dinner and were of course allowed to enjoy it ourselves afterwards. In between we were given a tour of the old olive mill and we tasted olive oil. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to delve deeper into the cultureRead more”

Private olive oil tasting in Old Corfu Town with an English guide, Corfiot bites, and a take-home souvenir. 40 minutes.
“This tasting was incredible! thank you so much to Governer, we learned so much about olive oil, the production, the history and everything in-between. The tasting was so in-depth. very similar to a wine tasting but with olive oil. We have such a deep and new appreciation for olive oil now, which honestly before this tasting I would have thought would be silly to say. And it's a very a quick and conveniently located experience that you should definitely fit into your time in corfu. The value of this private tasting was honestly under priced. Having done it, we would have easily paid at least double what we did. We…”
