Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Venice, California
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 17:00
- Day2
Split
Arrive 11:00 · Depart 19:00
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
- Day3
Kotor
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 16:00
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
- Day4
Corfu
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 16:00
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
- Day5
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.
- Etna day trips
- Taormina gateway
- Astronomical clock
- Day6
Salerno
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 18:00
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.
- Amalfi Coast gateway
- Paestum temples
- Seafront promenade
- Day7
Civitavecchia
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 19:00
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.
- Gateway to Rome
- Fort Michelangelo
- Vatican excursions
- Day8
La Spezia
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 18:00
A port at the head of a gulf on Italy's Ligurian coast, the gateway to the Cinque Terre and Tuscany. La Spezia is known for its naval harbour and waterfront gardens, with the five cliffside fishing villages and the marble city of Carrara nearby.
- Cinque Terre
- Portovenere
- Carrara marble
- Day9
Toulon
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 16:00
A major French naval port on the Mediterranean, set on a wide harbour beneath the heights of Mont Faron. Its old town and Provençal market lie behind the waterfront, and a cable car climbs the mountain for sweeping views over the roadstead.
- Mont Faron
- Provençal market
- Naval harbour
- Day10
Barcelona
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 17:00
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.
- Sagrada Família
- La Rambla
- Gothic Quarter
