While the itineraries of shore excursions will vary by cruise line, there are some great attractions and locations you should try to visit whenever you sail to the island. If you want to experience the best of the local scenery, visit the Vizzavona Forest or the majestic Prunelli Gorges.
Visitors with an interest in the history of the island would find Maison Bonaparte where Napoleon was born and the Napoleanic Museum fascinating, while the opulent cathedral in Ajaccio, a small but thriving city in its own right, is another memorable destination.
