Corfu Cultural Journey Combines Olive Oil Heritage and Historic Town Exploration


A refined cultural excursion in Corfu begins with a comfortable private transfer in a luxury vehicle, accompanied by a friendly English-speaking driver. The journey leads south to the village of St. Mathias, set on the slopes of Mount Gamilios, where visitors are introduced to the island’s deep agricultural traditions and rural charm.


The experience continues at the Governor’s traditional olive press, an award-winning, family-run estate with a legacy spanning three generations. Guests explore ancient olive groves filled with centuries-old trees and learn about traditional harvesting techniques as well as the distinctive olive varieties that define Corfu’s renowned olive oil production. Inside the press, visitors gain insight into the transformation process and enjoy a guided tasting of extra virgin olive oil, often described as “liquid gold,” paired with local delicacies that highlight the region’s flavors.


After the countryside experience, the tour transitions to the historic heart of Corfu Town, where cobblestone lanes and Venetian architecture create a timeless atmosphere. Key landmarks such as the Palace of St. Michael and St. George offer a glimpse into the island’s aristocratic past, while hidden streets reveal layers of cultural heritage and elegance.


The day concludes with a relaxed coffee break along the iconic Liston promenade overlooking Spianada Square. Once frequented by nobility, this lively square now serves as a central gathering place, offering the perfect setting to reflect on a journey that blends flavor, history, and the enduring beauty of Corfu.

Salvador collected my wife and I from the hotel and took us to the working olive museum. It was very informative tour . Very friendly. Had coffee on arrival. Sampled two types of olive oil with bread and also cheese and salad. Learnt about the acidity and different uses of olive oil. We were then driven to see a 1500 year old olive tree(mother tree) where Salvador carried on the tour. He was Very friendly and passionate about the olive history. We then drove to a nearby castle which was also interesting to learn about.we bought a few gifts there but due to a power cut,due to a storm the night before, we had to use cash. Well worth a visit

We had a wonderful experience at The Govenor’s Olive Mill. We were made to feel very welcome by all the family, lovely people. The tour was conducted by Irini, she made it really informative and enjoyable and it was one of the finest tours we have ever experienced. But the icing on the cake was we were invited to stay-on for an extra 30 minutes to sample the Olive Oil freshly-pressed from the mill as we watched, and it was delicious! We cannot recommend a visit to Govenor’s highly enough, it was a real highlight of our visit to Corfu.

We had a wonderful experience at the Olive Museum! The staff were very kind and welcoming, and they let us taste different olive oils. Everything was delicious and well explained. It’s also great that you can have their products shipped to your country — perfect if you don’t have a big suitcase with you. Highly recommended!
