The Governor Olive Tour

The Governor Olive Tour is a premium olive oil tour in Corfu, created for visitors who want a deeper connection with the island’s olive culture, local history and award winning EVOO. The experience combines olive grove heritage, Gardikios Castle, premium tasting, stories from Agios Mattheos and The Governor olive oil.

The experience begins with a walk toward Gardikios Castle, where the landscape, the olive trees and the history of the area help introduce the roots of Corfu’s olive oil tradition. From there, your guide leads you through the story of the local olive grove, the rare Lianolia variety and the way olive oil has shaped daily life, family work and gastronomy on the island.

During the tour, you learn how extra virgin olive oil is produced, how quality is recognised and why The Governor olive oil has become closely connected with Corfu’s modern olive oil identity. The tasting experience introduces aromas, flavours, quality markers and practical details that help guests understand what makes a premium olive oil stand out.

This tour is ideal for visitors who want a more complete and personal olive oil experience in Corfu. It is longer, richer and more detailed than the Classic Olive Tour, making it a strong choice for guests who enjoy local culture, food, history, nature and meaningful travel experiences.

Rooted in Corfu’s olive oil heritage, the Governor Olive Tour connects the past and present of olive oil through storytelling, tasting and the people behind the experience.
