Guide extracted from Ajaccio, Ajaccio, France. Structured automatically, not yet read by a human. Nothing is added by the model: what the sources do not say does not appear.

  • Bus 12 (Capitello stop)1,10 € 1 September 2026

    Stop 250 m from the airport, serves Ajaccio train station. Not indicated by the tourist office (source: summer 2012).

  • Taxi25 € 1 September 2026

    Range 25-30 € (Nov. 2023), lower bound used.

Why that one: A clearly identified public bus line serving the airport, a 20-minute journey, without having to look for a hidden stop as with Bus 12.

Getting around

Pitfalls

valid until 1 September 2027
  • Cheapest bus not mentioned by the tourist office

    Bus 12 to the Capitello stop (250 m from the airport) costs 1.10 € and reaches Ajaccio train station, but is not indicated by the tourist office.

  • Flights to Corsica potentially expensive

    Flights to Ajaccio can be surprisingly expensive; the ferry is often more economical, especially when factoring in the cost of transporting a car compared to renting one on site.

  • Limited accessibility in the town centre

    Buildings, streets and pavements are not necessarily accessible to people with disabilities: steep slopes, stepped streets, many cobblestones. No bus passes near the quays or the main sites.

  • Avoid touristy pubs

    The source recommends avoiding touristy Irish and English pubs in Ajaccio.

When to go
