Greece Corfu and Gerald Durrell sites - how can be reached?
score:4
I was in Corfu in 1995, so this is not the most up-to-date information. As far as I know there are no "The Corfu of Gerald Durrell" tours, but nothing to stop you going and seeing the places where he lived and wrote about. The best known is "The White House", which was a private residence when I was there and could be viewed but not visited. According to this article it is now a Taverna. That article is actually very helpful and will giv eyou an idea of what to expect. It also lists some direct flights to Corfu from the UK.

During the summer period, there are direct connections (charter flights) i.e. www.tez-tour.com, or www.kanoulastravel.com from Moscow to Corfu. Alternatively you can fly to Athens and Drive to Corfu, or Bari and catch the Ferry to Igoumenitsa or Corfu www.onferry.com.
Certaintly Corfu has changed a lot since Durrell's times, but if you step off the holiday resorts, it is easy to identify the "wild " side of Corfu he wrote about. Corfu is quite large island and has many untouched areas, it is a UNESCO protected site, and the Vast olive grouves have remaind unchanged.
There are also some day trips, "on the steps of Durrell", showing one of the places he lived in and a path across the coast
