Day-by-day itinerary

Venice, California
Depart 17:00
- Day2
Ravenna
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 17:00
A historic city near the Adriatic coast of northern Italy, once the capital of the late Roman and Byzantine West. It is celebrated for early Christian mosaics in its churches and mausoleums, several of them UNESCO World Heritage sites.

- San Vitale basilica
- Dante's tomb
- Day3
Split
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 17:00
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.

- Riva promenade
- Marjan Hill
- Day4
Kotor
Arrive 06:00 · Depart 17:00
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.

Messina
Arrive 10:00 · Depart 20:00
A Sicilian port on the strait that separates the island from mainland Italy, framed by the Peloritani mountains. Its harbour clock tower performs an elaborate noon display, and the town is a common gateway to Taormina and the slopes of Mount Etna.

- Astronomical clock
- Day9
Salerno
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 21:00
An Italian port at the head of its own gulf, just south of the Amalfi Coast. Its long seafront and walkable medieval centre make it a quieter base for reaching Pompeii, Paestum's Greek temples and the cliffside towns of Amalfi and Positano.

Civitavecchia

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.
