Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Venice
Depart 18:00
A city built across more than a hundred islands in a lagoon on the Adriatic, threaded by canals instead of streets. Venice is known for St. Mark's Basilica and its piazza, the Grand Canal and Rialto Bridge, and the glass workshops of Murano nearby.
- St. Mark's Square
- Grand Canal
- Rialto Bridge
- Day2
Koper
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 20:00
Slovenia's main port, a compact medieval town on the Adriatic with strong Venetian roots. Its Tito Square and bell tower recall centuries under Venice, and it sits within easy reach of Ljubljana, the Postojna caves and the Istrian coast.
- Tito Square
- Venetian old town
- Postojna Cave
- Day3
Zadar
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 20:00
A walled Adriatic city on Croatia's Dalmatian coast, built on a compact peninsula of Roman and Venetian stone. Zadar is known for its waterfront Sea Organ, the solar Greeting to the Sun installation, and Roman ruins at the old forum.
- Sea Organ
- Roman Forum
- Greeting to the Sun
- Day4
Split
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 21:00
A Croatian port on the Dalmatian coast, built quite literally inside the walls of a Roman emperor's retirement palace. Diocletian's Palace still forms the living old town, its cellars and courtyards woven through with cafes, shops and the cathedral.
- Diocletian's Palace
- Riva promenade
- Marjan Hill
- Day5
Dubrovnik
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 22:00
A walled city on Croatia's Dalmatian coast, its limestone old town wrapped in sea-facing ramparts above the Adriatic. Ships call here for the marble main street of Stradun, the circuit of the city walls and the cable car to Mount Srđ.

- Mount Srđ cable car
- Day6
Kotor
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 19:00
A walled medieval town at the head of the Bay of Kotor, a fjord-like inlet of the Adriatic ringed by steep mountains. Ships anchor below the old town, whose stone lanes and ramparts climb toward the fortress of San Giovanni.
- Bay of Kotor
- Old town walls
- San Giovanni fortress
- Day7
Corfu
Arrive 11:00 · Depart 20:00
An Ionian island off Greece's northwest coast, greener and more Venetian-feeling than the Aegean isles. Ships call at its old town, a UNESCO-listed warren of Italianate streets between two hilltop fortresses, with pebbly coves around the shore.
- Old Fortress
- Liston arcade
- Ionian coves
- Day8At sea
- Day9
Heraklion (Iraklion), Crete
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 22:00
The largest city on Crete and the island's main port, in Greece. A Venetian harbour and fortress front the town, while the Bronze Age palace of Knossos and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum's Minoan treasures lie close by.
- Palace of Knossos
- Venetian harbour
- Archaeological Museum
- Day10
Santorini
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 18:00
The crescent rim of a flooded volcanic caldera in the Greek Cyclades, its whitewashed villages strung along cliffs high above the sea. Fira and Oia draw crowds for sunset views, while the caldera's dark beaches and the ancient site of Akrotiri lie below.

- Fira town
- Caldera cliffs
- Day11
Ermoupoli, Syra
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 18:00
The capital of the Cyclades, on the island of Syros in the Aegean Sea. Unlike its whitewashed neighbours, it is a grand 19th-century port town of neoclassical mansions, a marble main square and a tiered hillside of Catholic and Orthodox quarters.
- Miaouli Square
- Apollon Theatre
- Ano Syros
- Day12
Piraeus
Arrive 5:00
The ancient harbour of Athens and Greece's principal cruise port. Ferries fan out to the Aegean islands from its quays, while the Acropolis, the Plaka district and the National Archaeological Museum sit a short metro ride inland.
- Gateway to Athens
- Acropolis
- Aegean ferries
