By plane<\/strong> There are four airports on the island: Ajaccio, Bastia, Calvi and Figari. In the high season, there are also direct flights from Germany. However, you often have to change planes on the French mainland.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBy boat<\/strong> There are several ferry connections that link the island with the mainland. For example, the Italian cities of Genoa and Livorno and the island of Sardinia are served. There are also ferries to the French mainland, for example to Marseille, Nice and Toulon.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\nOn the way in..<\/summary>\n
By car<\/strong> There are only a few well-maintained trunk roads, all in the Bastia and Ajaccio areas. Most of the roads are narrow and very winding. As a result, traffic moves much slower than on the mainland.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThere are numerous car rental companies. Insurance and rental prices are significantly more expensive for a holiday in Corsica than on the mainland. The “Corsica surcharge” due to the difficult road conditions is 5-10\u20ac per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By bus<\/strong> Due to the narrow roads, buses rarely travel into the hinterland. In the urban centres, the numerous bus lines run quite frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBy train<\/strong> There is a small narrow-gauge network running across the interior of the island. The trains connect Bastia with Ajaccio, Ile Rousse and Calvi. The lines are only single-track and there are only a few trains.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMit dem Fahrrad<\/strong> Es gibt kein zus\u00e4tzlich ausgebautes Fahrradnetz auf Korsika. Man muss die normalen Stra\u00dfen nutzen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/details><\/div>\n\n\n\nBest time to travel<\/summary>\n
