You can find each in the colorful island of Corfu. Top solo travel deals start at far less than $100 per night. Set in the Ionian Islands, prices are lower than the more popular tourist spots, such as the beaches of Santorini and windmill-filled Mykonos. Since there is less demand by tourists to vacation in Corfu, the prices are a real good value. For luxury solo travel deals, check out 4-star packages for single travelers way below standard rates elsewhere. What does Corfu have to offer? Set between Italy and Greece, Corfu has a lengthy history of its own dating all the way back to the 7th-century BC. The island has been the site of centuries of warfare, most famous of which was the 5th-century BC Peloponnesian War. That was followed by invasions by the Roman and Byzantine Empires. Such foreign domination brought some temporary stability and peace. However, Corfu’s position in the crossroads of the region experienced invasions over the centuries. By the 14th-century AD, Corfu had at least temporarily solved its being dominated by foreign powers by choosing a then powerful ally in Venice. However, the balance of power continued to shift back and forth between the neighboring nations. By the 19th-century, Corfu had to contend with three foreign powers, the French, Turks and British. Corfu found true peace one hundred years later only after surviving bombing in World War II. In the 21st-century, Corfu is at peace at last and is an ideal spot for both cheap solo travel and luxury vacations for single travelers. Things to See and Do: Have a cultural tour. You can start with Corfu’s eleven museums. Explore Corfu Town and the islands’ twenty-one small villages. See the ruins of the Old Fortress dating to the 1500’s. Visit the Church of St. Spyridon, Corfu’s patron saint. For more ancient sites, see the 13th-century monastery at Paleokastritsa. Relax on the beach, or go for a sunset cruise. Try out a wide range of water sports from scuba diving and snorkeling to wind surfing and sailing. Santorini From $176 for a Luxury Solo Travel Deal Known as the Black Pearl of the Aegean, Santorini had its start in its volcanic past. It is one of the most popular spots for singles vacations. However, there are still bargain deals for 4-star luxury as well as cheap solo travel deals and singles vacation packages with no single supplement. One way to get budget deals traveling alone is to go off-season. Things to see and do from my own trip to Santorini: Tour the hillside on donkeys. As I found, don’t be surprised when a bystander tells your “steed” to “gitty-up”! Take a car or moped for a self-guide island tour. Be aware that a scooter may have some trouble on the steep hills. Visit the historic monasteries but check first to see when they are open. Stroll through enchanting, small villages, such as Oia and Fira. Have a cool glass of white wine watching the sunset at Pyrgos, atop a one thousand foot cliff. Relax at the Black Beach. But bring a thick beach towel since the surface can be a little rough. When you have had enough time at the beach, go indoors to see local museums. There are several good options: Choose Santorini as your ultimate destination. Go island hopping or add Mainland Greece monuments to your trip. Alternatively, as I did, combined your Santorini trip with a top adventure adding Croatia and Turkey. Rhodes From $60! For a new approach to this ancient island, see “34 Fun & Unusual Things to Do in Rhodes“, including: Start with the Old Town, 14th-century Grand Master of the Knights and Colossus of Rhodes. Explore the Archaeological Museum of Rhodes, the Acropolis of Rhodes and also of Lindos. Go for a day sail between nearby islands. Try your hand at kayaking or snorkeling and scuba diving. Visit the Prasonisi Beach for kite surfing. For animal lovers: there are two zoos to choose from and an awesome aquarium. Finish your trip off with ruins of the ancient Kritinia Castle, and a visit to the Monastery of Panagia Kalopetra. Learn more at the official Rhodes tourist bureau. Karpathos From $98 Just steps […]
