Sardinia and Corsica are beautiful, laid-back Mediterranean neighbors. Sardinia is a little larger than Vermont; Corsica’s about twice the size of Rhode Island. Both destinations are an excellent way to round out a trip to France and Italy. Although, because of their proximity and resulting similarity, you likely won’t want to visit both in one trip. The main difference is that one is Italian (Sardinia), and the other is French (Corsica). 


Both locations are known for fresh, satisfyingly simple cuisine, outstanding wines, idyllic beaches and beautiful natural landscapes. Craggy mountains brimming with fragrant shrubs and trees beg to be hiked. Local towns, perfect for leisurely meandering, beckon. The vibe is relaxed. The tradition is strong. An itinerary is not needed here. 


Read on for my full travel guide offering a sampling of where to stay, what to do and where to eat in Sardinia and Corsica, plus a few essential travel tips and logistics. But the moral of the story is that on both islands, spontaneity reigns. Nevertheless, connect with me to plan and book a trip tailored to your unique vibe and interests. Plus, I’ll handle all the logistics so you can truly relax. And if you’re traveling to these Mediterranean gems, that’s the whole point.
