Succumb to Corsican flavors during your half-board self-guided tour in Corsica
More than on arrival, it's on the roads that your journey takes on its full meaning. Steep cliffs, hilltop villages and wild scrubland will enhance your epic journey. And what if your self-drive tour was also savored on the plate? Delight in Corsican specialities, from the north to the south of the island of beauty.
The Panzarotti of Bastia
Your arrival in Bastia marks the first gourmet break of your Corsica tour. Take advantage of the half-board option to put your feet under the table in your hotel restaurant.
And for a true Corsican tasting experience, take a stroll through the alleys of the San Ghijsé district on St. Joseph's Day. Bastia's mothers and grandmothers work the chickpea flour in front of the landings, while the pastry chefs are at the stove to honor an ancestral tradition: the preparation of Panzarotti.
In the Bastia region, these little golden Corsican doughnuts are made with potatoes. If your tour takes you to Ajaccio, your panzarotti will undoubtedly be stuffed with chard macerated in arbouse juice.
Enjoy your half-board Corsican tour in an intimate setting. The Hôtel des Gouverneurs offers peaceful nights in the hills above Bastia.

Got a taste for the detour? Get behind the wheel of your rental car and head for Calvi for the next leg of your journey. The landscapes of the Balagne region are revealed as you approach the intoxicating town of Calvi. Known as the garden of Corsica, this region is a must-see on any Corsican self-drive tour. Traditional songs, refined gastronomy and hilltop villages make the Balagne one of the highlights of your tour.
Succumb to the pleasures of half-board at your hotel or the vacation village where you spend your nights. If there were only one local recipe to savor, it would be Linguine à la calvaise. Cherry tomatoes, capers and black olives embellish this pasta dish, subtly enhanced by a hint of basil.
Wolf à l'ajaccienne
The last stage of your half-board self-drive tour takes you to southern Corsica. Benvinuti! Your trip to Corsica is an opportunity to discover the Imperial City and its iodized gastronomy.
On the menu for your trip to Ajaccio? Luvazzu a l'aiaccina ! Tomato sauce, capers, garlic, thyme and bay leaves are added to the white wine-deglazed cooking juices that delicately coat the bass before baking.
