Sokraki: A hilltop village with panoramic views
SOKRAKI

Our destination is a stunning village, characterized by old, colorful Venetian-style houses built closely together, a design influenced by the residents’ fear of pirate raids. Many of the village’s rural estates, located far from the center, have been abandoned due to their remoteness and inaccessibility.

We will walk through the village’s narrow alleys to meet locals and learn about their way of life and the village’s history. You’ll notice the simplicity of local life, deeply rooted in traditions, and the unique hospitality of the residents.

The village largely retains its traditional architectural character, with beautiful stone-paved alleys, olive mills, two charming squares, two traditional coffee shops, and impressive churches dating back to the 16th century. Unfortunately, during World War II,. . .

Discover Hidden Gems
A Visit to a traditional Oil Press & Olive Oil Tasting
Corfu olive oil tour, The Corfu Experience

In an old, renovated olive mill, you’ll have the opportunity to see and discover how Corfiots produced olive oil in past centuries. Just before the advent of modern, advanced technology systems, oil producers used large, rotating stone wheels moved by animals to crush olives into oil. This unique journey into the past will be complemented by an exceptional tasting of extra virgin olive oil and other local products, offering a rare glimpse into traditional methods and flavors.

Meet the Locals
Explore an olive wood decorative workshop

The vast olive groves of Corfu are extremely useful since, except for olive oil, contribute to the production of olive wood of great quality, used in woodcraft, existing on the island of Corfu for centuries. You can have the opportunity to watch right before your eyes how a good woodworker transforms trunks and roots of olive trees into amazing decorative pieces of art.

Discover hidden treasures
Visit to a ruined church of the 15th century

During our walk through the neighborhoods of this beautiful village, we will come across a very old, dilapidated church dating back to the 15th century. Despite the passage of time, the church’s interior preserves exceptional Byzantine frescoes and rare icons in good condition. This is yet another testament to the high religious sentiment of the Corfiots, especially in the villages.
