The exploration continues in Corsica where travellers will visit Bonifacio, one of the most spectacular towns of the Mediterranean with the citadel walls and ancient houses rising out of sheer cliffs. Following the Artisan’s route, with cobbled streets that lead journey goers to uncover artists and craftsmen, producing everything from honey and jams to jewellery, basket weaving, essential oils and more.
