Come with us on this ELEVEN day holiday, staying in good 3 & 4 star hotels throughout and ride some of the best roads you will ever experience - hardly a straight road anywhere!
Our motorcycle tour of Corsica really is spectacular - many roads take you through narrow gorges and over red granite mountains - on one route rising from sea level to 8000ft in five miles. The variety of the terrain and the coastal views make it a sensational motorcycling experience. The neighbouring island of Sardinia (it's only a short one hour crossing) offers a wild and rugged terrain - ideal combination for a TWO centre holiday where we will be staying in good quality hotels. Everyone who went on our last Corsica/Sardinia tour raved about it and we can't wait to go back!
On this tour we will ride our motorcycles to the south of France, with an overnight stop in Dijon en route, before taking the overnight ferry to Corsica. We will arrive early enough the next morning to tour the northern part of Napoleon's Island en route to our Hotel. Cap Corse is our first area of Corsica to explore on the motorbikes and the views along the coastal route really are quite breathtaking. We ride past enchanting white sand beaches, rocky coves and witness the sheer beauty and wildness of this northern part of Corsica. We cut inland to see the fortress where Roman philosopher Seneca spent time in exile - certainly a place for quiet contemplation...
Our ride out routes will criss cross Corsica to make sure that we have fully exploited the very best of the motorcycle riding routes that are available to you. Rest assured that you will benefit from the exquisite experiences we had last time on tour in these brilliant landscapes! Photographs really do not do justice to the quality of the ride. We continue on to Bonifacio at the southernmost tip of Corsica before catching the ferry to the neighbouring island of Sardinia for part two of this excellent adventure!
We spend three nights on the island of Sardinia exploring the remains of an ancient culture and some fascinating cities.
Sardinia is very different from mainland Italy. You will find some of the best riding in Europe on Sardinia. Winding sinuous coastal routes follow alongside and above gorgeous Mediterranean beaches that stretch for miles. Heading inland through beautiful National Parks we will explore the wild landscapes and rugged mountainous regions in the centre of the island. Our more adventurous motorcycling participants will be amply rewarded! Sardinia is practically empty in the Spring, so our MCi Tourists will have the roads to themselves, which are truly a pleasure to ride. Sardinia has a mild Mediterranean climate, particularly suited to motorbikes in the cooler early months of the year. Come and join us and find out for yourself...
We will return to the French mainland on an overnight ferry from Ajaccio after taking the short ferry crossing back to Corsica. Once back on the mainland there is an option to ride the scenic Ardeche Gorge to our overnight stop in Dijon, en route through France to catch the ferry for our return to the UK.
FOOTNOTE! This tour will appeal to experienced/confident riders who love twisty roads.
