Wander through Sardinia, Italy’s Mediterranean jewel, and hike to old-world towns, secluded coves and along picturesque coastal paths. Then sail across the sea to Corsica, where wild and beautiful landscapes await. Explore pristine beaches, forested trails and enchanting hilltop villages. Three luxurious seaside hotels, two unique islands, one journey you’ll never forget—and far too many treasures to count. |
