Getting to Arillas, Corfu, directions
From the airport
When leaving the airport turn right past the stadium and keep going until you reach the sea. Turn left (there’s a great view of the Old Fortress from this junction). Continue on this road, keeping as near to the coast as possible while driving past the old town, the old and new ports and along “Disco Strip”, always with the sea to your right. From the New Port you can follow the directions below.
From the port
On leaving the port turn right and follow the road along the coast past the “disco strip” for one and a half kilometres until you reach a set of traffic lights.
At these lights turn right and follow the main coast road north, passing Kontokali, Gouvia and Tzavrou.
At Tzavrou keep straight on.
After four kilometres turn right towards Arillas and Sidari.
At Skripero you start to climb the mountain, reaching the summit at Troumbetta Pass from where there is a great view of north-west Corfu.
Going down the mountain, go straight ahead at the crossing and head for Sidari.
Inside the village of Agros, take a sharp left turn towards Dafni and Arillas.
After three kilometres you enter Dafni and turn left at a tricky crossroads.
100 metres after the BP station take a left towards Arillas.
Then take a second left after 1.5 kilometres at Kavadades.
Take a right turn 500 metres later.
A couple of hundred meters after entering Arillas, turn right to keep on the main Arillas road.
Descending into Arillas, drive to the beach, enjoy the view and go to the right. 100 metres along the beach is Taverna Eftichia.
Turn right into the small road just before the restaurant.
Follow this road as it makes some twists and turns for about 500m until you get to Zambeta Apartments!
By taxi
Taxis from the port and airport are more expensive than those from San Rocco Square or the Spianada Square. However, no journey should be more than about 60 euros. Agree a price before leaving or insist that the meter is running. The trip takes around 45 minutes.
By bus
The bus connection with town is far from ideal. There’s one bus to Arillas from Corfu Town every day at 14.00. The trip takes an hour and a half, and if you’re not in a hurry you’ll enjoy the drive through beautiful olive groves and past some small picturesque villages before reaching the final stop, Arillas.
In the summer there is a shuttle bus service between the airport and Arillas on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. You can contact Arillas Travel for details and bookings
