Description

This title features: dynamic new two-colour layout for clear navigation; new magazine style, combining stunning photography, new itineraries and the author's personal take on the country; extensive listings of hotels and restaurants (often far more than other guides) - all personally visited and recommended for a really local flavour; top 'Don't Miss' sights at the start of every regional chapter, plus new 'Author Choices' of personal favourite places to stay and eat; clear, newly-designed two-colour maps throughout for increased ease of use; and, the only guides with full-colour touring maps of the whole region.This title: relaxes on the beaches and tiny, hidden bays, and wanders through the chestnut forests of the Castagniccia; rides the Chemins de fer de la Corse - the marvellous mountain train between Ajaccio and Bastia; takes you through breath-taking mountain scenery to the town of Corte and along the river in the Restonica valley; and, offers an in-depth look at the customs, folklore, and historic aspects of Napoleon's birth place.
