- Bonifacio - Upon meeting the private guide at the pier of the Port of Bonifacio, the journey to the citadel, also known as the upper town of Bonifacio, begins. This area is perched over 70 meters high. After a pleasant ascent, visitors will find themselves in the historic core of the city. With engaging explanations and stories from the enthusiastic guide, all the remnants of this historic city will be explored, starting with the impressive Porte de Gêne and its drawbridge.
- Bastion de L’Etendard - The tour continues with a visit to the Bastion de L’Etendard, the tallest in France, where the typical medieval architecture of this 15th-century fort can be admired. After a guided tour, a breathtaking view of the sea, port, cliffs, and surrounding natural areas awaits. It’s a perfect spot for unforgettable photos.
- Escalier du Roi d’Aragon - A highlight of the visit is the Staircase of the King of Aragon. Legend has it that this staircase was constructed in a single night in 1420 by the soldiers of the King of Aragon to invade the city and ascend into the citadel.
Descending the 187 steps of the staircase offers an impressive view of the sea from over 60 meters high. Once at the bottom, the path along the cliff leads to a hidden natural cave. Visitors can then ascend the steps at their own pace.
- Eglise Sainte Marie Majeure - The tour continues with another historical monument in the city: the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore.
This is not only the main church of Bonifacio but also the oldest building in the city. Visitors will admire a beautiful loggia.
- Cimetiere Marin de Bonifacio - At the peninsula’s end, a walk to the marine cemetery, one of the most beautiful in the Mediterranean, is in store.
Overlooking Bonifacio, a short stroll between the familiar white tombs, which contrast harmoniously with the deep blue of the sea, is offered. The view is stunning, and the setting resembles a small village.
- Port de Plaisance de Bonifacio - At a leisurely pace, and with the guide’s company, visitors will walk calmly towards the port, taking in the beautiful scenery.
