A Day with the Island’s Domesticated Animals

Begin the day with a visit to a donkey sanctuary, a peaceful refuge where rescued donkeys of all ages live under the care of people dedicated to their wellbeing. Here you will learn about the important role donkeys once played in everyday life on the Greek islands, when they were essential for transporting goods across villages and rural paths. Guests have the opportunity to spend time with these gentle animals in a safe and protected environment while discovering their story and the work of the sanctuary. The experience continues on the northwest coast of Corfu at a beautiful family-run farm set within the countryside. There you will meet a variety of friendly farm animals including horses, donkeys, rabbits, pigs, sheep, goats, ducks, chickens and even turtles. Guests can interact with and feed the animals, while those who wish can also enjoy a relaxing horse ride through the surrounding landscape. For those who prefer not to ride, the garden offers a pleasant setting to sit back and enjoy a refreshment while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of the farm. The experience concludes with a delicious lunch prepared with ingredients produced directly on the farm, including meat, poultry and fresh vegetables. The meal is accompanied by organic house wine or local beer and finished with a homemade dessert, offering a truly authentic taste of the Corfiot countryside.
