    We enjoyed it together with my partner. Sadly we didn't get to visit the village due to recent events in Corsica :( but R.I.P fisherman's soul. On the trip itself - beautiful views, cave with music - one love! But maybe 2 hours would have been enough. Take the sunscreen! Better take 50, 30 probably won't help :) (Don't expect the captain of the boat to speak English)

    The trip was excellent and the nature is incredible but... You promised me an English guide but all we got was Google Translated text on mobile phone which the guide gave us to read. So, we cannot ask anything because the guide did not speak English at all. Google Translate is not an English guide. At least not yet...

    Prachtige ervaring om Corsica vanaf het water te bewonderen. En ooooo wat is het mooi. Nog een beetje spectaculair ook met een bloedgang over het water. Mooie combinatie. Gids was een geschikte vent met humor en kennis wel alleen in het Frans. Maar je bent dan ook in Frankrijk.
