Barcelona - Civitavecchia (Rome)

Fusina (Venice) - Piraeus (Athens)

4 countries

8 ports

Wave goodbye to Rome as we set sail from Civitavecchia on a short tour that ticks off four countries – Italy, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia. Sorrento is our first port of call, heady with the scent of its lemon trees, then Siracusa on Sicily, to explore the delightful old town, with its ancient Greek and Roman ruins. Now relax and enjoy all our ship has to offer as we head to Greece and the lush, green island of Corfu, where there is good walking along the pine-fringed cliffs. Next Montenegro and the labyrinthine fortress town of Kotor, then Zadar on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast with its curious Sea Organ, a sound installation on the waterfront designed to let the waves to play music. We return to Italy now, for an overnight in Ravenna, an unsung city, yet home to eight Early Christian monuments that have all been listed by UNESCO, before our final port, Fusina, gateway to Venice.

13 EXCURSIONS

Visiting Ravenna is like discovering buried treasure. This gem of the Roman Empire sits equidistant between Venice and Florence on the Adriatic coast yet remains relatively under the radar compared to the region's bigger name cities. There are none other than eight UNESCO World Heritage sites within the city walls, all of which honor Ravenna's astonishing churches and showcase a blend of 5th and 6th-century Graeco-Roman craftsmanship, Christian iconography, and oriental and Western styles; the Basilica di San Vitale, renowned for its elaborate mosaics, and the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, with its stunning starry sky dome, are highlights. Italy's most celebrated poet, Dante Alighieri, is buried in the Basilica San Francesco, and even Lord Byron lived here, between1819 and 1821 (on via Conte di Cavour). Once you've worked up an appetite drinking in all the culture, head to the bustling Piazza del Popolo for an aperitivo and piadina, the city's famous flatbread sandwich.

Fusina (Venice), Italy

sep 08, 2026

In 2019, UNESCO warned the Italian government that Venice risked being added to the “World Heritage Sites in Danger” list due to the continuous damage caused by large ships to the city's fragile architecture and ecosystem. In response, the government designated Venice's waterways as national monuments—a status typically reserved for artworks and historical buildings—granting the lagoon enhanced state protection. The new regulations require ships longer than 590 feet to find alternative berthing locations. Fusina, a nearby industrial port adhering to maritime safety and environmental laws, emerged as the solution. Although the port is not as picturesque as Venice's Grand Canal, a scenic 30-minute boat ride from Fusina brings visitors to a central city pier, offering a perfect starting point to explore all of Venice's romantic, watery attractions.
