Bath is an ancient city with more than 2,500 years of history, yet it is known worldwide for its unique hot springs. According to legend, Prince Bladud discovered their healing power, and the Romans later developed the city with roads such as the Fosse Way and the remarkable Roman Baths. In the Middle Ages, a Benedictine monastery stood here, which later evolved into the magnificent Bath Abbey that dominates the city today.Bath’s harmonious Palladian and later Georgian architecture — including the Circus, Queen Square and the iconic Royal Crescent — created the elegant cityscape we admire now. Bath has inspired and been home to many remarkable figures: the novelist Jane Austen, writer Mary Shelley, painter Thomas Gainsborough, novelist Charles Dickens, and astronomer William Herschel, who discovered the planet Uranus while living in Bath. In modern times, the tradition of bathing continues at the Thermae Bath Spa, where visitors can enjoy the city’s natural thermal waters.All these layers of history, culture, science and art attract visitors from all over the world each year. I am the author of the tour “10 Wonders of Bath”, and during my walk I will bring these stories to life — connecting legends, architecture, famous residents and hidden details that make Bath truly unforgettable.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:nataliia.cooksey@gmail.com">Get a free quote for your group</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://nctours.co.uk/citybreaks">Go back</a>

Corsica is often called the Island of Beauty. Although it is now part of France, it lies south of the French Riviera and north of the Italian island of Sardinia.French and Italian influences are deeply intertwined here. For many centuries, Corsica was ruled by various Italian states, particularly the Republic of Genoa. It was the Genoese who built many of the island's fortresses and defensive towers, many of which can still be seen today.Interestingly, Corsica is also the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte. The future emperor lived in the island's capital, Ajaccio, until he was nine years old. Today, visitors can explore a museum dedicated to his life and legacy.Corsica is often described as an island of mountains and wilderness. Much of the island is covered by rugged mountain ranges, making it a paradise for hikers. One of the most famous trails is the GR20, considered one of the most challenging and spectacular long-distance hiking routes in Europe. Stretching for around 180 kilometres, it crosses the mountainous heart of the island.It is this combination of stunning beaches, dramatic mountain scenery, fascinating history and a unique Corsican culture that attracts thousands of visitors from around the world every year.Although Ajaccio is the administrative capital of Corsica, Bastia is considered the island's economic centre. Located on the north-eastern coast, it is one of Corsica's main transport hubs, with an international airport and a major ferry port connecting the island to mainland France and Italy.The city's name derives from the word "bastion" or "fortress", as Bastia developed around a Genoese stronghold. Highlights include historic churches, the charming old harbour and the narrow streets of the old town.Corsica can be reached not only by air but also by ferry. Regular services operate from Marseille, Toulon and Nice to Bastia and other ports around the island. For many travellers, the sea journey itself becomes part of the holiday experience.Of course, Corsica is best known for its beaches. The island boasts more than 140 beaches, many of which are considered among the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. One of the most famous is Palombaggia Beach, a true Corsican icon with powdery white sand, crystal-clear turquoise water and pine trees growing almost at the water's edge.Even if you stay at one of the island's popular resorts, you'll never be far from secluded coves and unspoilt beaches waiting to be discovered.One of the defining features of a Corsican holiday is the absence of large all-inclusive resorts. Most hotels are relatively small and often located a short distance from the beach. The island appeals particularly to travellers who enjoy nature, active exploration and discovering destinations independently.For this reason, many tour operators include car hire as part of their holiday packages. Having a car is almost essential on Corsica, allowing visitors to explore mountain villages, hidden bays and the spectacular cliffs of Bonifacio in the south of the island.Porto-Vecchio is another popular destination, famous for its charming old town, marina and beautiful nearby beaches. However, visitors should not limit themselves to the coastline. The mountainous interior, with its forests and traditional villages, reveals an entirely different side of the Island of Beauty.When it comes to accommodation, Corsica is not about huge resort complexes and all-inclusive holidays. While there are certainly luxurious villas and high-end hotels, most visitors choose small boutique hotels, apartments or family-run guesthouses. Many offer excellent swimming pools, stunning panoramic views of the sea or mountains and an authentic Corsican atmosphere.During the summer season, direct flights operate from the UK to Calvi Airport on the island's north-west coast. Throughout the year, Corsica can also be reached via Bastia or Figari, usually with connections. There are numerous domestic flights from Paris to the island as well. Figari Airport is located in the south, close to some of Corsica's most famous beaches and resorts.One of my favourite places to stay is Saint-Florent, a charming resort town on the northern coast. From here, it is easy to reach Saleccia Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Corsica. It is renowned for its dazzling white sand, turquoise waters and picturesque dunes. Despite its popularity, it still retains a wonderfully untouched and peaceful atmosphere.Saleccia can be reached by boat from Saint-Florent or by 4x4 vehicle through the famous Désert des Agriates region. Despite its name, this is not a sandy desert but a wild, rocky landscape covered in Mediterranean vegetation and offering breathtaking views.Corsica also offers dramatically different scenery elsewhere on the island. Along the western coastline, visitors can find beaches with dark volcanic sand and black rock formations, creating a striking contrast with the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean.It is this incredible diversity of landscapes that makes Corsica so special. In a single day, you can experience white-sand beaches, mountain peaks, historic towns and dramatic coastlines that feel more like a tropical island than part of Europe.Photo of Rondinara Beach courtesy of Corsica Lovers.Tours to Corsica from the UK are also available from as little as £500–£599 per person. £1063pp direct charter flight from London Stansted and BB in Le Florentine 3* Hotel description: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://nctours.unit.travel/post/5u9132J">https://nctours.unit.travel/post/5u9132J</a>
