The third-largest Italian island is known for two things: The variety of its landscapes and as the first island of exile for Napoleon Bonaparte. After his forced abdication in 1814, Napoleon lived on the island for 300 days before escaping. Our tour will begin on foot at the historic center of Portoferraio, whose pink streets come from the limestone slabs used to pave them. Your guide will bring you to the Palazzina dei Mulini(1), Napoleon's official residence—now a museum housing furniture, paintings, and memorabilia once belonging to the former emperor.

PLEASE NOTE

  • (1) The Palazzina dei Mulini is currently closed for restoration. The visit is replaced by that of the Villa San Martino, Napoleon’s summer residence. It houses relics and artworks from the period of his exile.
  • The order of the visits can change.
  • Times are approximate.
