About this tour

Corfu: Shared Group or Private Food Walking Tour

Let the aromas of roasting coffee and buttery pastries draw you through the old streets of Corfu Town, where food and history blend in the warm Ionian light.

A Taste of Corfu, Greece

Corfu’s table is a mosaic of Greek and Venetian influences: honey-sweet desserts, crisp savory pies, tangy cheeses, and olives as wrinkled and briny as the sea breeze. The Corfu: Shared Group or Private Food Walking Tour is a delicious way to explore the island’s capital and discover the flavors that shape its daily life, all with a knowledgeable local guide by your side.

Why Choose a Private Food Walking Tour?

Instead of wandering aimlessly, this private culinary journey lets you dive deep into Corfiot traditions. Your guide will steer you away from typical tourist cafes and into hidden bakeries, bustling market stalls, and family-run delis that locals love. Think of this as a stroll through Corfu’s edible history—one bite and story at a time.

What You’ll Discover Along The Way

Between tastings, you’ll hear the stories of Corfu’s neighborhoods, from grand Spianada Square to shaded alleys where only locals gather. As you nibble on koum quat liqueur sweets, your guide shares tales—sometimes of ancient saints and battles, sometimes simply local gossip from the town square.

More Than Just Food

“Booked a walking food tour with Blue Tours through Get Your Guide and would highly recommend. Our guide, Sofia, arrived at the meeting point early and proved to be extremely professional. She was very informative and showed us a side of Corfu Town we hadn’t seen in a previous visit. Sofia was very patient with one of our group who had mobility issues and we didn’t feel rushed at all. The variety, quality and quantity of food privided made this tour extremely good value.”

“I had an amazing experience on my food walking tour in Corfu. My guide was Magda and she was so knowledgeable on the history as well as the food in Corfu. She was an absolute pleasure to be with. She made me feel so comfortable as I was traveling solo. I felt like I was a Greek friend. I highly recommend her and the tour .”

“Would highly recommend this tour for anyone wishing to get a brief history of Corfu whilst enjoying local cuisine. When the guide recommends that you come hungry they are not kidding. We had a great guide who not only shared the history of Corfu but her experience as a child growing up in the streets of Corfu old town. We were fortunate that we could do the tour in the afternoon when the cruise ship crowds had gone and the streets were not packed. A great tour to make the most of your time in Corfu”
