Hello What would be the preferred way to spend a few days in Corsica, while visiting the South of France? No itinerary has been planned yet apart from flying home from Marseille. I see the ferries are a possibility but that is a loooong ride for a short visit. Would I get much out of a two-three day side trip, do you think? Thank you Read More
