Ajaccio enjoys a privileged Mediterranean climate, offering hot, dry summers with average highs around 28°C and exceptionally mild winters where the mercury rarely drops below 4°C. The ideal periods to discover the "Imperial City" are spring (May and June) and early autumn (September and October), allowing you to enjoy the turquoise waters and the trails of the Sanguinaires Islands without the crowds or the scorching heat of the peak season. September is particularly recommended for swimming in a sea that is still warm, while August remains a must for those wishing to celebrate the Napoleonic festivities under a radiant sun.
No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audioguide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point : Général de Gaulle Square.
