The boat trip is long and could have been accompanied by a guide who explains the history of the region. On the other hand, the view of Bonifacio by the sea is breathtaking. 4 hrs to the city is enough. The master also indicated at the end of the voyage that the crew could be given a tip. The words used gave us the impression that it was an obligation .... a little pressure.

Magnificent

The city of Bonifacio is magnificent !!! You have to climb a lot to get the best views, there is even a very nice and beautiful little cove !! But 4 hours on site (see less, time to get on the little train and return to a boat), it goes too fast ... However, the boat trip is very long ... Fortunately only in the aisle the captain takes us to beautiful places. The boat sways a lot, you get seasick quickly. But the captain and the crew are very nice!

An excellent ride

I have always visited Bonifacio by road. This time I had the sea version. Breathtaking. It is impressive to see that the village was built on a limestone cliff. The villagers are welcoming and friendly. Despite the narrowness of the road. Everything flows without clutter. Many thanks to the navigation staff.
