Achilleion Palace tickets and tours

A testament to a bygone era, the Achilleion Palace is one of Corfu’s most popular attractions for a reason. It was built by Empress of Sisi of Austria in the 1890s after a family tragedy as a retreat where she hoped to find comfort and solace. Inside, you’ll find mementos of her life in elegant reception rooms. But the star of the show is the lavishly decorated staircase in a hallway adorned with scenes from ancient Greece. Outside, the classical-inspired gardens are studded with statues and cypresses. The grounds also offer panoramic views over Corfu town, the coastline and even mainland Greece. After Sisi’s death, Germany’s last kaiser bought the palace and his legacy lives on in the tiny strip beach below the palace named after him.

    I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful mansion and the information given by our guide. However, I didn't enjoy the hilly parts and all of the steps as I have health issues which I had informed the TUI rep about before I booked as it needed to be suitable for me. He gave no inclination about some of the difficulties involved for people with health issues. However, I did still really enjoy the tour.

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour, the tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and amusing. However, another guest was argumentative from the start of the tour and kept speaking when the guide was speaking spoiling the tour for the other guests. When we arrived in Paleokastritsa, she demanded to be let off the bus. To be honest, the rest of the guests were relieved as she was spoiling it for everyone else. I would definitely recommend this tour, the guide and driver were fantastic.
