Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Civitavecchia
Depart 20:00
The deep-water port serving Rome, roughly 80 kilometres up the coast. Ships dock here for shore excursions to the Colosseum, the Vatican and the Roman Forum, while the town itself keeps a working harbour and a Michelangelo-designed fortress.

- Fort Michelangelo
- Vatican excursions
- Day2
Calvi, Corsica
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 18:00
A port on the north-west coast of Corsica, set beneath a Genoese citadel above a curving bay. Its beach, marina and ramparts anchor the town, with the red rock of the Calanche and the hill villages of the Balagne nearby.

- Calvi beach
- Balagne villages
- Day3
Genoa
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 15:00
Italy's great maritime city, stacked up the Ligurian hills above one of the Mediterranean's busiest harbours. Its old town is a maze of tall, narrow caruggi, and it claims pesto and focaccia as local inventions; the Aquarium and Renaissance palaces of Via Garibaldi sit close to the port.
- Old-town caruggi
- Genoa Aquarium
- Via Garibaldi palaces
Portofino
Arrive 17:30 · Depart 23:00
A small fishing village on the Italian Riviera, its pastel houses curved around a sheltered harbour on a wooded promontory in Liguria. Long a retreat for yachts and writers, it has a tiny piazzetta, hillside church and coastal paths toward Genoa.

- Castello Brown
- San Fruttuoso
- Day4
Monte-Carlo
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 21:00
The seafront quarter of Monaco on the French Riviera, set on a rocky terrace above the Mediterranean. It is known for the belle-époque Casino, the Hôtel de Paris and the harbour that hosts the Monaco Grand Prix each spring.

- Day5
Saint-Tropez
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 21:00
A storied yachting resort on the French Riviera, its pastel old port lined with cafés and superyachts. Once a fishing village, it keeps a citadel above the harbour and is famed for the sandy beaches at nearby Pampelonne along the Côte d'Azur.

Mahón, Menorca
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 19:00
The harbour capital of Menorca in Spain's Balearic Islands, set at the head of one of the Mediterranean's deepest natural inlets. Georgian touches from a British period linger in the old town, while quiet coves and prehistoric stone sites lie across the island.
- Port of Maó
- Fortalesa de la Mola
- Gin Xoriguer
- Day8
Barcelona
Arrive 08:00
Catalonia's seafront capital and one of the Mediterranean's busiest cruise homeports. Gaudí's Sagrada Família and Park Güell crown the city, while the tree-lined Ramblas and the Gothic Quarter's medieval lanes lie a short ride from the terminal.
