Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Southampton
England's principal cruise homeport on the south coast, with deep docks that once launched the great ocean liners. Many transatlantic and Northern European sailings begin here, an hour or so by rail from London and close to the New Forest.

- Gateway to London
- Tudor old town

Lisbon
Portugal's hilly capital, spread across seven hills above the Tagus estuary. Yellow trams climb to the Alfama's tangled lanes and the Castle of São Jorge, while Belém's monastery and pastéis de nata anchor the riverside to the west.

Cagliari
The capital of Sardinia, an Italian port set across hills above the Gulf of the Angels. Its fortified Castello quarter looks down over the harbour, with a long city beach at Poetto and the Roman amphitheatre among its older landmarks.

Katakolon
A small port on Greece's western Peloponnese coast, best known as the gateway to ancient Olympia. The sanctuary where the original Olympic Games were held lies a short drive inland, among ruined temples and the old stadium.

- Day10
Corfu Island
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
- Day11
Dubrovnik
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.

- Day12
Split
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
- Day13At sea
- Day14
Valletta
Malta's fortified harbour capital, built by the Knights of St. John on a peninsula between two deep ports. Honey-coloured limestone defines St. John's Co-Cathedral, the Grand Master's Palace and the bastions overlooking the Grand Harbour.

Cadiz
One of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Western Europe, set on a narrow spit almost surrounded by the Atlantic in Spain's Andalusia. A gold-domed cathedral rises over the old town's tight lanes, sea walls and the long sands of La Caleta.
