Tour Overview

Discover island living at its finest with this beautifully balanced escape combining leisurely pleasures and gentle exploration. The stunning Costa Smeralda beckons with pristine beaches and tranquil bays, while a guided stroll through Olbia reveals its authentic character. This historic city centre charms with independent boutiques, inviting wine bars and café-filled piazzas that capture the genuine spirit of Sardinian life. Our wonderful lunch together at a traditional Locanda rounds off our cultural immersion perfectly. The remainder of the week unfolds entirely as you wish – perhaps a scenic boat journey exploring La Maddalena’s captivating bays and islands, or an engaging day learning traditional crafts including cork production and Castelsardo’s distinctive basket-weaving techniques. Alternatively the cobblestone streets and gothic buildings of Alghero await, offering a fascinating contrast to your encounters in Sardinia so far or why not take a ferry over to Corsica to explore its glorious natural harbour and Old Town. Freedom and choice define this delightful Mediterranean retreat.

The Island of Corsica

The Island of Corsica

Lying off the coast of the South of France, Corsica’s many attractive resorts boast gorgeous beaches and spectacular scenery. Our journey begins by road as we head through Northern Sardinia's shrubland to the town of Santa Teresa di Gallura, overlooking the narrow strait separating the islands. On arrival here we'll board the ferry for the crossing to Bonifacio, which is perched dramatically on Corsica's cliff tops.
A great way to start your discoveries is with a stroll around the natural harbour here. Set against a backdrop of sheer cliffs and overlooked by a 9th century citadel, you might choose to walk up to its ancient walls for stunning views. Alternatively, head to the Old Town where a maze of narrow streets and intriguing alleyways are home to medieval houses. After your walk, why not stop for a rest at a harbour-side café, where you can soak up the sun and the views.
