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.
