Corsica's beauty beckons you during this half-day drive via air-conditioned motorcoach to the island's rugged interior. Travel along winding roads through the Zipitolli Forest surrounded by macchia, the island's fragrant chaparral. Be treated to the majestic beauty of the Prunelli Gorges - deep red granite cliffs that plunge to a river surrounded by lush chestnut and pine forests and majestic mountains. Follow the gorges to the man-made Tolla Lake. Enjoy a photo stop here to take in vistas of the glittering lake, its impressive dam, and the magnificent upper gorge. Visit a local café to indulge in a hearty Corsican snack consisting of the island's excellent cheeses, charcuterie (cured meats), and delicious wines before returning to Ajaccio.

Special Notes:

This tour is not recommended for passengers who experience vertigo: the gorge roads are extremely winding with severe hair-pin turns. The drive along gorges is made in one direction only.
