Extremely tall, centuries-old olive trees constantly bear fruit used for the production of the widely known Corfiot virgin olive oil.
Olive trees, the sacred trees of ancient Greece that were praised by most of the poets, painters, and authors, symbolize peace, renaissance and fertility and play a vital role in the life of Corfiotโs, since olive cultivation represents the main source for income, while olive oil constitutes the main ingredient of Corfiot gastronomy having healing properties as well.
Olive oil is much more than a common product to Corfiotโs, is a part of their mentality, culture, and way of life. Until 1950, about 1,000 olive presses have been operating on the island of Corfu, producing olive oil through the traditional process of olive fruit crushing.
Live like local producers just for one day.
*Visit to an olive oil soap production workshop.
*Olive Grove Tour.
*Collect fresh vegetables
*Olive oil tasting.
We will start the tour in the culture of Corfu olive oil, with a visit to a workshop to produce aromatic soaps from olive products. The owner will take us on a tour of the workshop, reveal to us the methods he uses to turn olive oil into soap and talk about its cleansing, antiseptic and healing properties.
Our destination is the shady garden of a house in the countryside, boasting a lovely olive grove, producing one of the most qualitative varieties of olive oil, which has won prizes in several international competitions.
First, we will take a relaxing walk around the farm and wander through the lovely olive grove to see the local olive variety called โlianoliaโ(means small olive). The specific type of olive tree needs a lot of moisture to grow and in Corfu, where the weather is rainy during the winter, the tallest olive trees in Greece can be seen. The local oil producer will be happy to inform us about this unique variety of olive, grown on the island of Corfu, introduce us to. . .

We will then walk through the farm’s vegetable garden to see all the fresh and organic vegetables being grown. Tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, lettuce, eggplant, herbs, all pure, organic, and delicious. We can put in our basket the vegetables we need for the olive oil tasting that follows.
During the tour we will meet chickens and geese roaming around carelessly, enjoying the tranquility offered by the Corfu nature.
Our tour will be a throwback to the past, when oil producers used to use big, rotating stone wheels driven by animals to grind oils as well as we will see old pressers, containers for the storage of olive oil and a wide variety of original tools and vessels of that era.
In this atmospheric space, we will have the opportunity to taste different varieties of local olives and olive oils. Tasting local olives and olive oil will be a unique experience. You will accompany the tasting with various fresh and organic products that we will collect from the farm garden, while you will learn how to distinguish the special characteristics of Corfu olive oil.
