The experience

Experience Corsica differently – The "Slow" Tour of Cap Corse

Starting from Bastia, this trip takes you to discover Cap Corse—a veritable "island within an island"—featuring sparkling seas, picturesque villages, and spectacular roads.

On this iconic route, you circle the Cap, traveling along the eastern and then western coasts, amidst sheer cliffs, unspoiled coastal hamlets, and sweeping Mediterranean vistas. The "Slow" pace gives you the time to savor it all: stopping at a beach, in a village, or at a local producer's table. It is the finest section of the great Corsican crossing, accessible to everyone.

One conviction has shaped our trips: no two people experience a journey in the same way.

Some dream of discovering Corsica in total independence, facing the island on their own. Others love the idea of ​​crossing paths with fellow travelers, sharing a drink in the evening, a leg of the journey, or a new encounter. And many want a bit of both, depending on the day or their mood. That is why we designed our trips to let you make that choice, from the first day to the last.

A few days before departure, you can join—if you wish—a WhatsApp group for travelers setting off on the same day as you. It’s a place to share impressions and discoveries, arrange to meet up for drinks or dinner, and sometimes even make new friends. Our team facilitates the group experience throughout the crossing. Your itinerary guide provides everything you need to enjoy the journey independently: the route, the stages, our recommended spots, and must-see locations.

Ride solo or join the others—you don’t have to decide right now. That’s the beauty of traveling freely.

Two ways to experience this trip

- "Comfort" option (luggage transfer included, guaranteed departures): from €325/person. Join one of our guaranteed departures—trips that are confirmed as soon as the first person signs up. Your luggage is transported from stage to stage so you can ride light, and a dedicated WhatsApp group connects everyone departing on the same day.

- "Freedom" option (travel on your preferred date): from €250/person.

Set off whenever you like throughout the season. You get the same route, itinerary guide, accommodations, and included dinners—benefiting from all the logistical planning while carrying your own luggage.

Your bike at the participant rate

3-day package (any bike type): €155 €105

Your choice of:

- Riese & Müller Nevo 4 Touring e-bike: the choice of 8 out of 10 travelers.

Easily tackle every stage—mountain passes included—simply by recharging at the hotel each evening. Fully equipped for the crossing: luggage rack, integrated lights, lock, repair kit, rearview mirror, and smartphone mount.

- Polygon carbon road bike: for those who want to conquer the climbs with leg power alone.

Carbon frame; a bike built for Corsican mountain passes—lightweight on the switchbacks of the Col de Palmarella and stable on the descents toward Porto.

We own our fleet: purchased and maintained in our Ajaccio workshops, and delivered and collected by our teams in Bastia.

And if you travel with your own bike, there is nothing extra to pay: the trip price remains the same.
