I
New Trip! Corsica & Sardinia Adventure
 

This adventure features the twin island gems of the Mediterranean: Corsica and Sardinia. On Corsica, a myrtle-scented island whose rugged wild beauty charms every visitor, you'll take easy hikes among its dramatic gorges, deep pine and chestnut forests, and secluded valleys sheltering traditional rural life. Then, for a change of pace, you'll venture south to Sardinia and the island archipelagos of Lavezzi and Maddalena off its northern coast. Both are natural reserves harboring precious flora and fauna, including rare flowers, dolphins, and a variety of seabirds.

By day you'll explore by private sailboat, enjoying the bewitching scenery of transparent shallow seas, tiny protected coves, and pink and white sand beaches; nights are spent at a comfortable hotel exuding quaint island charm. Like other islands in the world, Corsica and Sardinia have their own special character. Corsica is politically French (but don't tell the Corsicans that!); Sardinia is Italian - but in truth, a world apart. Join us on this new adventure and discover the intriguing spirit of each!
