Bus Hire in Corfu

Corfu is the greenest of the major Greek islands and the most visited in the Ionian Sea. Its UNESCO-listed Old Town, the Achilleion Palace, and a long west coast with good beach resorts from Sidari to Paleokastritsa generate consistent demand for coach hire throughout a long season from April to October.

The main road network on Corfu is accessible by full-size coach. The east coast road through Dassia, Ipsos, and Barbati is the busiest group transport corridor. Corfu Town itself has restricted vehicle access in the Old Town area, with coaches dropping on the adjacent roads. The airport is exceptionally close to town at just 2 km south.

What Bus Hire Costs in Corfu

As a rough guide, a minibus (up to 19 seats) in Corfu runs around 280 to 500 EUR per day, a midi-coach (around 35 seats) around 460 to 820 EUR per day, and a full-size coach (49 to 55 seats) around 680 to 1,250 EUR per day. Corfu is busy through the Ionian summer, and cruise-day shore excursions can tighten availability, so early booking helps. The final figure depends on your route, the date, and how long you need the vehicle and driver. We confirm a fixed price with no hidden charges, so send your exact details for a free quote.
