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 9:00 · 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 20:00
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 7:30 · Depart 20:00
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.

Khania
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 20:00
A harbour town on the northwest coast of Crete, in Greece, wrapped around a Venetian port. A waterfront lighthouse marks the old harbour mouth, and the pink-sand lagoon of Balos and the beach at Elafonisi lie along the coast to the west.

- Day8
Ermoupoli, Syra
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 22:00
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
- Day9
Chíos
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 20:00
- Day10
Çanakkale
Arrive 8:00 · Depart 18:00
A Turkish port at the narrowest point of the Dardanelles strait, between the Aegean and the Sea of Marmara. It is the gateway to the ruins of ancient Troy and to the Gallipoli battlefields and war memorials across the water on the peninsula.
