Mixing the cultures of Italy and France yet fiercely Corsican, the French Mediterranean island of Corsica has a furious beauty. It is this epic beauty combined with its challenging topography that make it a spectacular choice to host the historic centenary of the initial stages of the Tour de France. Race organisers wanted the hundredth Tour to start in an enchanting location, and decided Corsica was the place; this will be the first time the race has braved its challenges.Mixing the cultures of Italy and France yet fiercely Corsican, the French Mediterranean island of Corsica has a furious beauty.

Ashton was really knowledgeable and deft at handling our tour. We had a great time in the French Quarter and learned so much about the history of this little neighborhood. I learned later that his facts were a leeeeetle off on two of his anectdotes, but otherwise, a great time for both of us. France-Voyage
