Join us aboard this 11-night voyage that takes in some true gems of the Mediterranean. From Athens, we sail across to the Greek island of Naxos, with its sugar-cube houses and vast stretches of sand, before arriving in the medieval fortress town of Monemvasia. A day at sea brings us to La Goulette in Tunisia, close to the ruins of the ancient city of Carthage, before we enter Italian waters to discover Sardinia’s sandy beaches. Now to France: we visit Ajaccio in Corsica, Napoleon’s birthplace, followed by two days in glamorous Monte Carlo for a flutter of the dice in its iconic casino. Picturesque Toulon on the French Riviera is next, before a day at sea brings us to the spirited Spanish capital of Barcelona.

Itinerary

01.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece
ATH

may 21, 2028

departure 7:00 PM

Piraeus (Athens), Greece picture
Experience the vibrant and historic port of Piraeus, Athens gateway to the Aegean islands and beyond, and find a rich maritime heritage, a bustling local culture, and access to the wonders of Athens. Venture through Greece's largest port city, Piraeus, as you make your way to the cradle of Western culture and the birthplace of democracy. Athens, among the world's oldest cities with a history spanning 3,400 years, has long been the location of myth and muse, and its ancient heritage is still an incredible source of inspiration. Here, the Acropolis crowns the city as home to the Parthenon and other legendary temples and monuments.

Monemvasia (Laconia), Greece picture
If you wished to paint the perfect picture of a Greek island, it would probably look like Monemvasia. Start with a rocky promontory on the eastern edge of the Peloponnese. Then sketch in restored stone houses, beautiful churches and a winding two-donkey wide road. Add a medieval citadel. Remove all automobiles. Then make the island accessible from the mainland via a strollable causeway spanned by a grand Venetian gate. The finishing touch: the backdrop of an exquisite Aegean sunset.

may 25, 2028

8:00 AM - 8:00 PM

10 EXCURSIONS

Tunis (La Goulette), Tunisia picture
Bathed in the warm waters of the southern Mediterranean, Tunis is a blend of Maghreb flair and French style. Visit the magnificent Az-Zaytunah mosque, the most sacred religious site in the country. Take a dip in the hot baths, built by the Romans. Or experience the sights and sounds of one of the exotic souks (bazaars).

Cagliari (Sardinia), Italy

may 26, 2028

8:00 AM - 5:00 PM

4 EXCURSIONS

Cagliari (Sardinia), Italy picture
Cagliari, capital of Sardinia, sprawls across the hills promising awe-inspiring views for those who venture to Monte Urpinu Park. At its heart lies the historic Castello district, where a Roman amphitheater, medieval towers built by the Pisans, and a 13th-century cathedral with an intricately carved crypt sit beside the monolithic architecture of the Mussolini era. Down by the harbor, the eateries and bars in the Marina buzz with life. In Via Sardegna and Via Cavour taste local flavors such as the peppery salami mustela, salty pecorino cheese, and carta musica, a wafer-thin flatbread said to sound like music when it snaps. They all go well with a glass of cannonau or vernaccia, the island's robust wines.

Ajaccio (Corsica), France

may 27, 2028

9:00 AM - 6:00 PM

6 EXCURSIONS

Ajaccio (Corsica), France picture
Charming town on the French island of Corsica with a rich history dating back to Napoleon Bonaparte. Home to the Maison Bonaparte, the residence-turned-museum bearing the general's name, this once fortified town founded by the Genoese in 1492 today boasts a Côte d'Azur flair along its trendy waterfront promenade. Nestled between sea and mountains, its magnificent UNESCO-designated Golfe de Porto is part of Corsica's Regional National Park, renowned for its geologic and ecologic natural value.

Toulon, France

may 30, 2028

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

7 EXCURSIONS

Toulon, France picture
Often overshadowed by its more bustling Riviera counterparts, Toulon has long been hitting the high notes for travelers looking for a taste of authentic France. The streets are heaving with history; a stroll through the Old Town's narrow streets and local markets is testament to traditional Provencal life that is very much part of the present day. History enthusiasts can delve into the city's naval heritage at the Musée National de la Marine, showcasing maritime artifacts and stories, while beach bunnies should wander to the Mourillon for long ribbons of Mediterranean sandy beach. Do not forget to taste the region's specialty fish soup, at less than 40 miles from Marseille, the bouillabaisse is worth tasting!

Barcelona, Spain
BCN

jun 01, 2028

arrival 6:00 AM

Barcelona, Spain picture
Past, present, and future converge in the Catalan capital – a place steeped in centuries of history but with a palpably youthful spirit. From the Roman ruins and maze-like medieval streets of the Gothic Quarter to the wonderfully whimsical architecture of Antoni Gaudí, and the Modernist masterpieces of the Picasso Museum and Fundació Joan Miró, there are treasures old and new at every turn. The city's dining scene is an attraction unto itself: keep it low key with plates of paella and jugs of sangria by the seafront, snack on jamón ibérico and fried seafood in the street markets, or indulge in Michelin-starred tasting menus.
