Hiking Experience In Zaghouan Mountains

An ancient principality steeped in rich and colorful history, Monaco was bought from the Genoese in 1309 by the Grimaldis, who still rule as the world&#39;s oldest monarchy - presided over today by Prince Albert.

Giotto, Brunelleschi, Botticelli and Michelangelo made their marks of genius here. This cradle of the Renaissance owes its UNESCO status to the overwhelming influence the city and its museums, churches, architecture and artworks have had on Europe and, ultimately, the world. Vestiges of this enlightened period are everywhere today – at the Uffizi gallery, the Palazzos Pitta and Vecchio and throughout the city streets. 

Charming town on the French island of Corsica with a rich history dating back to Napoleon Bonaparte. Home to the Maison Bonaparte, the residence-turned-museum bearing the general&#39;s name, this once fortified town founded by the Genoese in 1492 today boasts a Côte d&#39;Azur flair along its trendy waterfront promenade. Nestled between sea and mountains, its magnificent UNESCO-designated Golfe de Porto is part of Corsica&#39;s Regional National Park, renowned for its geologic and ecologic natural value.

Your guide will be waiting for you at the port and you will set off together to discover the “Imperial City” on a picturesque walking exploration of the Old Town.Following the footsteps of greatness, you will see the town hall, Palm tree square dominated by a statue of Napoleon robed like a Roman consul and surrounded by four lions, and de Gaulle square, with its equestrian statue of Napoleon on horseback accompanied by four of his brothers. Next you will pass by the cathedral, completed in 1593 and dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It was here that Napoleon was christened in 1771; none of those present could possibly have imagined that a mere 33 years later, the squalling baby at the baptismal font would be crowned emperor. That ceremony took place in 1804 at the cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris and was witnessed by no less a personage than the pope himself. A pillar near the entrance to Ajaccio cathedral bears a plaque with the letter N surrounded by laurel leaves. This is in memory of the exiled Napoleon&#39;s dying wish to be brought back to lie with his ancestors in Ajaccio&#39;s cathedral, if his body was not to be buried in Paris. The exploration continues to the “Maison Bonaparte” which is situated in the town center. Napoleon was born here in 1769 and lived in the house until the age of nine. The house had been the Bonaparte family home since 1682 and apart from a few tumultuous years in the late 18th century when the family had to flee Corsica for mainland France, remained so until well into the 20th century. In the late 1960s it was given to the French government by Prince Victor Napoleon and became a national museum. The museum houses many exhibits associated with the Bonaparte family, including a death mask of the emperor. After the visit you can either return to the ship or explore the city on your own. The pedestrian area is lined with boutiques, cafés and restaurants and you may like to take a stroll down Rue Fesch before returning to the ship.

Corsican Market Taste

Scenic drive through the splendid scenery of the Gulf of Ajaccio before venturing up into the mountains, a rugged, dramatic backdrop of the port blanketed with chaparral that delights the senses with its green oak, cork oak, myrtle and variety of other flowering plants. This shrubland, called the maquis, is so distinctly aromatic that Napoleon is said to have been able to recognize &ldquo;his&rdquo; island by nose. At the village of Cauro, enjoy panoramic views of Ajaccio, the Gulf and Iles Sanguinaires, the archipelago of four islands that sits a short distance from the harbor. As your motor coach climbs higher into the mountains, the vegetation changes from a dense thicket to the lush forest known as Zipitolli, with abundant laricio pine, chestnut and beech trees. Follow a narrow, country lane through the Prunelli Gorges, a compelling sight of red granite cliffs rising above the river, and continue to an overlook above Lake Tolla, an artificial lake created as a source of electricity and drinking water for the region. Pause to appreciate the breathtaking view of the glimmering lake, enormous yet graceful dam and the upper gorge, all of which add to the beautiful tapestry of the maquis.

His vision was to bring an institute of arts and sciences to Ajaccio and in that pursuit, Fesch donated a great number of artworks from his own enormous collection to the museum. You will have approximately one hour to admire the museum&rsquo;s masterpieces independently or with your guide, exploring floors dedicated to Napoleon, contemporary artists, and 14th- to 18th-century art. Some of the more famed pieces include works by such masters as Botticelli and Titian. All too soon, it will be time to join your guide for the short walk back to your ship.

Here, you will visit the two Catholic churches, one Roman Catholic and one Orthodox, a reminder of the old antagonism between the two cultures. Enjoy lunch and then continue to the section of coastline between the villages of Porto and Piana, called the Calanches de Piana. Deriving its name from the Corsican word calanca, meaning &ldquo;inlet&rdquo;. In French, they are called calanques. The road runs through the maze of magnificent and sometimes bizarre rock formations, some towering more than 900 feet above the waves. An old local legend holds that these otherworldly forms were the work of the devil, who created them in a fit of rage after a shepherdess refused his advances. Today&rsquo;s visitors find this to be a heavenly place of impressive views and incredible photo opportunities. These amazing granite pinnacles rise dramatically from the crystal-clear sea, with rocky faces that are beautiful any time of day, especially at sunset when the cliffs turn a burnished, glowing red. No wonder the Calanches de Piana are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
