Liapades Tours and Trips

This was my first trekking holiday and I’m so glad I chose the South Corfu Trail. Some of the accommodation was basic as expected. Spiros was absolutely fantastic and so passionate about the island - he really made it so enjoyable. Good size group and mix. I would highly recommend this option

This trip was suggested to me by a friend, but as an 83 year-old who ‘peaked’ more than 10 years ago I had some reservations about going on it. However, my fears were put to rest when I saw that the same hotel was used before and after the most challenging stage – the 14-mile final stretch of the northern trail, including the crossing of Mount Pantokrater. But in the event, although the terrain is hilly with some steep climbs I didn’t find any of the walking particularly difficult. It helped that a lot of the journey was on shady woodland tracks. Mt Pantokrator was quite an easy climb, the only challenge being the length of the day and the distance. Not having visited Corfu before I found it a fascinating place, and have many vivid memories of the trip. We were fortunate to have, in Spiros, a leader who was very knowledgeable about local history, politics and wildlife. He worked very hard to make the holiday enjoyable for us, including leading us on a beautiful coastal walk to Kassiopi on the free day. I only wish I had discovered the island earlier so that I could walk the southern section as well.

Excellent week. Great walks which were correctly graded. Our guide Spiros was exceptional. Accommodation was just perfect. With the exception of one breakfast they were spot on to fuel you up for your days adventure. Would thoroughly recommend this holiday.

This was a great hike with an excellent leader who was very knowledgeable, and attentive to our individual needs. We stayed in a variety of accommodation types, but all of them were clean, pleasant and well located.

A beautiful island, which we walked in perfect weather. I think the North trail probably has more dramatic views but the South is still beautiful on this very green island, with its ancient olive trees, gorgeous villages, deserted beaches and delicious food. A coffee stop was factored in each day too. But oh the Greek toilets...!

Really enjoyed walking The Corfu trail south. The route was varied and interesting and took in the smaller villages in more remote areas. It was just the right pace with adequate stops. Spiros was very kind and funny and extremely knowledgeable about Corfu and nature. There would not be The Corfu trail without Spiros so feel pleased to have had this experience. One of the accomodation choices along the route needs reviewing as it was basic and didn't work well. A very nice week with a great group.
