"Kassiopi - Corfu" Prefecture of Kerkyra (Corfu) by Mariajoy

Prefecture of Kerkyra (Corfu) Travel Guide: 1,041 reviews and 2,920 photos

First real holiday without the parents!!!

As a teenager I saved up and went to Corfu with friends (my first real holiday without parents, teachers or other relatives.) Had a nasty accident on a motorbike but it didn't deter me from future travels! We stayed in an apartment - got very drunk most evenings and sunbathed all day - it was a blast :)

Pros and Cons

Pros:weather, food, people
Cons:poorly maintained hire bikes then - hopefully better now
In a nutshell:Have some motorbike lessons BEFORE you go!

Last visit to Prefecture of Kerkyra (Corfu): Jul 1979
