Corfu: Relaxed day at Glyfada Beach with driver pickup

The driver stays with you, returning at the arranged time so you don't have to track a schedule.

A relaxed beach day on Glyfada, Corfu's most popular sandy shore, includes hotel pickup, an air-conditioned ride through olive groves, and sunbeds with umbrellas on the beach itself. Your professional driver provides commentary about the island on the way, then returns to collect you at the time you choose. The beach has restaurants, bars and a mini market, so you arrive with just your swimsuit and towel.

The experience

You're picked up from your hotel and driven through Corfu's olive groves to Glyfada Beach, where the driver shares information about the island and the beach itself. The ride is air-conditioned, and the journey gives you a sense of the landscape before you arrive. Once there, sunbeds and umbrellas are available to rent, or you can lay your towel on the golden sand. The transparent water is the draw: steep and clear, backed by a hillside thick with pine trees.

The beach has restaurants, bars and a small market on-site, so you don't need to pack food or drinks. Spend three to five hours swimming, reading or simply resting. Your driver returns at the time you arrange beforehand, so there's no guessing about when to leave or how to get back to your hotel. The whole day is built around doing nothing but what you want to do.
