Meet the authentic and dynamic Corsica! Get behind the wheel of the legendary vintage FIAT 500 and take to the back roads of Corsica, meeting the bold people of the eastern plains and surrounding mountains.
Situated on the east coast between Bastia and Porto-Vecchio, the Oriente region is Corsica's agricultural heartland, with its rich history, culture and heritage.
More than 300 farms are active in 22 municipalities spread between the sea and the mountains.
Here you can discover great PDO wines, award-winning cheeses, extra virgin olive oil that has won prizes in international competitions, the famous IGP Corsican clementine - the only French clementine -, the distillery that produces the multi-medal-winning P&M whisky, sugar cane cultivation at the highest latitude in the world, a virtuous production of clementine juice, and various determined entrepreneurs who have chosen to give their products the quality and flavour that honour this region.
It's in a vintage Fiat500 from the 70s - over 50 years old! Together, in convoy, you'll visit the region and its farms at their wheel.
THE PROGRAMME :
In convoy, following a guide who will set the course and tempo, participants will travel the back roads of Oriente, driving the cars themselves at a 'slow travel' pace, hair blowing in the wind, stopping off at producers selected for their boldness and commitment to developing the heritage on offer.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For the curious, the observant, the lovers of authenticity and charm, for amateurs or professionals sensitive to tastes, colours and innovation, those who, during their holidays, choose an instructive and authentic detour in an attractive and dynamic region.

Meet the producers

You can visit Corsica all year round, in winter or summer! (and more pleasantly in the off-season for its mildness, interest and authenticity).
The Fiat 500s are equipped with an efficient heating system - the engineers of the time were inventive - so you won't feel the cold in these cars.
