Highlights

  • Enjoy kayaking and hiking in Corsica along with an Italian guide.
  • Discover remote, wild areas on the island.
  • Gaze at dazzling views of the cliffs by the sea.

Description

Bordering on the Ligurian and the Tyrrhenian Sea, and situated above Sardinia, Corsica is the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean. It’s a mountain island that belongs to France and its beautiful landscapes have nothing to envy from its Mediterranean neighbors.

Apart from its fantastic mountains, Corsica shows wonderful woods, vineyards, lakes, beaches and cliffs. If you follow me on this 8-day tour around this wonderful island, we’ll explore it in an unusual way.

The tour combines days of kayaking with days of hiking, which makes it a great opportunity to explore nature and enjoy a sportive activity. With our kayaks, we’ll discover remote wilderness areas that are difficult to reach. Also, we’ll visit some of the local villages on foot and try delicious meals and wines.

As for the requirements, keep in mind it’s important to have some prior kayaking experience as well as a good level of fitness. Of course, I will help and guide you on the way. 

So, are you ready to explore the remote areas of Corsica along with an Italian guide? Then all you have to do is send the request and book your place. It will be an unforgettable experience!

Would you like to enjoy kayaking in Italy? Then take a look at these tours that I lead in Finale Ligure and the villages of Cinque Terre on the Italian Riviera.

About the guide

I am Cristina Puppo, a mountain guide, traveler and sportswoman.

I love both the sea and the mountains: intact wilderness areas are the environments I enjoy.

On every opportunity I have, I like to take my time and explore slowly, whether close to home or around the world. I also enjoy practicing my favorite sports and activities: hiking, skiing, rock climbing, mountaineering, kayaking or sailing, as well as discovering the underwater life while snorkeling. But it is human encounters that make the experience even more unique, anywhere you go!

I have a degree in Forestry and Environmental Sciences and chose it because I wanted my office to be in the wilderness. At first, I dreamed about the beautiful forests of northern Europe. One day, I missed my flight and found myself in Mali! In the end, I stayed in Africa for about 7 years and organized environmental and humanitarian projects for small NGOs.

At this moment, I live between Italy and France. In Grenoble, I obtained a Master in Economic Strategies in Sport and Tourism. In addition, I worked in the Ailefroide area at the Guides des Ecrins office.

My job is to organize trips for small groups in both popular and lesser known locations. I am interested in choosing the perfect time and place so we can live exciting experiences from start to finish. Are you fit? Together, we will discover the most beautiful and unusual places while hiking, kayaking, mountaineering, snorkeling or climbing.

Choose the activity that you love! I will take care of the accommodation and offer you delicious picnics and dinners prepared with local and healthy products. And if you come with your family, I will organize itineraries that allow you to combine the pleasure of being with your loved ones and the adrenaline of your favorite sports!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
