Corfu Green Buses: The Complete Guide to Routes, Fares and Travel
Corfu’s Green Buses are the island’s intercity bus network, linking Corfu Town with resorts, villages and beaches across the north, west and south. If you are staying outside Corfu Town and want to explore without hiring a car, understanding the Green Bus network can make a huge difference to your holiday.
Last timetable and fare check: September 2026. Green Bus services change during the season. Corfu & Beyond reviews this guide regularly, but always confirm the latest operator timetable before travelling, particularly the final return bus of the day.
What are the Green Buses in Corfu?
Green Buses, operated by the intercity KTEL of Corfu, are the buses used for longer journeys between Corfu Town and destinations around the island. They are different from the local Corfu City Bus network. This guide is deliberately about Green Buses only. We cover the other forms of transport separately.
For a broader overview of transport choices, see our Getting Around Corfu guide.
Where is the Green Bus station in Corfu Town?
The intercity Green Bus station is the main hub for services heading around the island. If your journey begins in Corfu Town, this is the most important place to identify before travelling. Allow time to find your departure bay and check the destination displayed on the bus.
Find the Green Buses central station in Corfu Town on Google Maps.
Corfu & Beyond Tip: Do not assume every bus you see in central Corfu Town is a Green Bus. Check the destination and route number before boarding.
How to read Green Bus route numbers
The current network uses route numbers including A routes for many northern and western destinations and B routes for many southern destinations. The route number is extremely useful because several services pass through intermediate villages before reaching their named destination.
Current Green Bus routes and one-way fares
The official Green Buses timetable document dated 5 May 2026 lists the following visitor-relevant routes and one-way fares. Times can change independently of fares, so use this as a planning guide rather than a substitute for checking your travel-day timetable.

Important: the operator’s current timetable document directs passengers to check Green Buses for current departure times. We will add and maintain detailed departure tables where the operator publishes stable current times, but we will not invent or preserve obsolete times simply to make the guide look complete.
A1: Corfu to Agios Stefanos Avliotes
A1 is one of the most useful routes for visitors staying in North West Corfu. It connects Corfu with Agios Stefanos Avliotes, a relaxed resort with a huge sandy beach, tavernas and famous west-coast sunsets. The current published one-way fare is €4.50.
Explore Agios Stefanos Avliotes and nearby Avliotes before travelling so you know where your accommodation or onward walk sits in relation to the route.

See our Sidari Beach guide and Canal d’Amour guide when planning a day there.
A3: Corfu to Roda and Acharavi
A3 serves Roda and Acharavi, two established northern resorts that work particularly well for visitors who want plenty of facilities without relying on a car every day. The current published one-way fare is €4.00.
Read our Roda Beach guide and Acharavi Beach guide for more ideas once you arrive.
A4: Corfu to Kassiopi
A4 heads to Kassiopi on the north-east coast. Kassiopi combines a harbour, beaches, restaurants and plenty of visitor facilities with a strong sense of place. The current published one-way fare is €3.90.
You can also use our North East Corfu guide to plan other places worth exploring in this part of the island.
A5: Corfu to Barbati and Nissaki
A5 serves Barbati and Nissaki on the north-east coast. This is useful territory for clear water, pebble beaches and coastal scenery. The current published one-way fare is €2.40.
See the North East Corfu guide for the wider area and our Beaches directory for individual beach information.
A6: Corfu to Afionas and Arillas
A6 is especially useful for independent visitors exploring the north-west. It serves Afionas and Arillas, with the current published one-way fare at €4.40.
Our Afionas guide and Arillas guide will help you plan what to do once you get off the bus. Afionas is also the starting village for the famous walk towards Porto Timoni.
Other A routes
The network is not limited to the major resorts. Current official material also lists A14 Sokraki, A15 Agios Panteleimon, A16 Makrades, A17 Nymfes and A18 Armenades. These routes can be useful for travellers who want to see a more traditional side of Corfu, but services may be less frequent than the headline resort routes.
Corfu & Beyond Tip: A route existing on the timetable does not necessarily mean it runs frequently enough for a spontaneous day trip. Check both the outward and return journey before setting off.
Green Buses to South Corfu
Green Buses also connect Corfu Town with destinations across southern Corfu. Current official material includes B1 Kavos (€4.80 one way), B2 Petriti (€3.70) and B3 Dragotina (€4.80), alongside other southern services that should always be checked against the latest operator timetable.
Use our South East Corfu guide and South West Corfu guide to understand the very different places and landscapes found in the south.
Buying tickets and boarding
Give yourself enough time at the station or stop to identify the correct service. Keep euros available even if you normally rely on cards, and follow the current operator instructions for where tickets are sold for your particular journey. At busy times, arrive early rather than assuming you can appear at the departure point at the last minute.
Using Green Buses for a day trip
Check the latest timetable on the day or shortly before travelling.
Find the final return service before you leave your accommodation.
Check exactly where the bus drops you, not just the destination name.
Allow extra time in peak summer when roads and buses can be busy.
Save the location of your return stop on your phone.
Do not build a complicated multi-stop itinerary around connections unless you have confirmed them.
Corfu & Beyond Tip: Work backwards from the last realistic return bus. That one habit removes much of the stress from exploring Corfu by bus.
Can you explore Corfu using only Green Buses?
Yes, particularly if you stay in a well-connected resort and are happy to plan around a timetable. Green Buses are excellent for straightforward resort-to-Corfu-Town journeys and selected day trips. They are less suited to trying to visit several small beaches and inland villages in one day.

Common Green Bus mistakes to avoid
Using an old screenshot of a timetable from a previous month or season.
Checking the outward bus but forgetting the return journey.
Confusing Green Buses with Corfu City Bus services.
Assuming every village has a frequent service.
Not checking how far the stop is from the beach, hotel or attraction you actually want.
Leaving no margin for summer road traffic.
Assuming Sunday services are identical to weekdays.
How Corfu & Beyond keeps this guide current
Transport information is only useful when it is current. We review the official Green Buses information regularly and date this guide so you can see when it was last checked. Our aim is to provide practical route information without pretending that a seasonal timetable is permanent.
Last checked: September 2026. We recommend confirming your specific journey with Green Buses immediately before travel.
Final thoughts
Green Buses can be one of the easiest and best-value ways to see more of Corfu without driving. The key is simple: choose journeys that suit the network, check the current timetable, know your return bus before leaving, and use our destination guides to work out what you can realistically see once you arrive.
