Free tours in Ajaccio

Explore the coastal charm of Ajaccio, the capital of Corsica, on a leisurely tour. This Mediterranean gem is best known as the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte, but it has so much more to offer: sunlit streets, colorful markets, and a deep sense of history.

Along the harborfront, you’ll enjoy stunning sea views, cafés, and bustling markets. The tour may also stop at Ajaccio Cathedral, where Napoleon was baptized, and at peaceful squares like Place Foch, where locals gather under palm trees beside fountains and statues.

Nature lovers will enjoy walking up to Citadel Park or taking in the coastal views along the Route des Sanguinaires, just outside of town.
