Overview

The famous Durrell family lived for several years on the island of Corfu. Their habits, their unique stories, their relationship with the locals and their experiences while in Corfu unfold before your eyes on an experiential tour of the town and countryside where they lived.

You will be shown the site of the Durrell’s first accommodation in Corfu. See the family’s residences and the seaside property where the series was filmed. Come with us to Kalami to the White house by the sea where Lawrence Durrell lived with his wife Nancy during their time in Corfu!

Feel like the characters of My Family and other Animals, the famous book by Gerald Durrell. We will pick you up from your hotel with our luxury minivan. Your unique experience on the northeast coast of Corfu has just begun!

As unbelievable as it may seem, traces of the famous family can still be seen on site after so many decades. Thank you!
