Coach Trip Season 9 Episode 5 Day 5 - Ajaccio

On Day 5 of Coach Trip season 9, the group wakes up in the beautiful French town of Ajaccio, located on the island of Corsica. It's a bright and early start as the coach is ready to depart by 9 am, and the contestants begin to get excited about the day ahead.

As they start the day's journey, host Brendan introduces them to a new game, called "Plan the Trip". In this game, two contestants are selected to plan out the itinerary for the group for the day. They have to consider factors like schedules, budgets, and entertainment options for the whole group. The winning team's itinerary is then adopted for the day.

After the game, the coach arrives at an impressive hilltop town named Piana, where the group takes a leisurely stroll around its charming narrow streets. They enjoy a coffee break while taking in the stunning views of the surrounding mountains and coastline.

Back on the coach, Brendan surprises everyone with a new twist - 'Navigator of the Week'. This is an individual challenge where one contestant is selected each week to navigate the group to the next destination using only a map and a compass. Today's Navigator is Deano, who is excited to take on the role.

Later that afternoon, the group heads to Calanches de Piana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its red granite rock formations. The contestants embark on a two-hour hike over uneven terrain, to reach the most picturesque viewpoints and take plenty of pictures. The filming crew captures some great footage of the striking landscape and the group having fun on their adventure.

As the sun starts to set, the group arrives at their final destination, the stunning cliff-side town of Bonifacio. After checking into their hotel, they enjoy dinner in a traditional Corsican restaurant. Brendan surprises everyone with a game of "Would You Rather", where they have to choose between two tough options. The game sparks some lively debate and laughter amongst the group.

The evening ends on a high note, as Brendan introduces a new twist - 'Immunity Vote'. Each week, the Navigator of the week receives immunity from being voted off in the 'Vote to Return' ceremony, where one couple is eliminated from the trip. The group takes their time to make their choices carefully, knowing that it could affect the dynamics of the group moving forward.

Overall, Day 5 of Coach Trip season 9 is full of adventure, fun, and surprises. The contestants explore some of the most scenic spots on the island of Corsica, enjoy new challenges, and bond more as a group. The mix of exciting activities, breathtaking scenery, and friendly banter makes for an unforgettable day on Coach Trip.
