Departure Dates

Ports of Call

Genoa, Italy
Nestled between Gulf of Genoa and the scenic terraced hills of Liguria, this modern metropolis' treasures are in its navigation, historical and artistic heritage. Hear the echoes of a legendary past in her patrician palaces, on medieval walls and bridges. This coastal town offers a myriad of experiences.
Civitavecchia, Italy
Civitavecchia is the port for the Eternal City-Rome. Take a tour of the city and see the Coliseum and the Forum, visit Vatican City and St. Peter’s Basilica, or stroll along the city streets shopping for leather goods and Italian fashions. Be sure to toss a coin into Trevi Fountain which, the legend says, will guarantee your return to Rome.
Tunis, Tunisia
The capital of Tunisia can surprise you for the european aspect of the new city with elegant shops and modern buldings but it is enough to walk to the Medina and the souks to find the charm and the feeling of North Africa. This contrasting ambience makes Tunis a very fascinating city. Breathtaking is also its geographic location, close to the hills at the bottom of a gulf touched by the Mediterranean sea. It features diverse landmarks such as the Zitouna mosque and the leftovers of ancient Carthage.
Tripoli, Libya
The capital of Libya has been sedimented in the 12 th Century BC by the Phoenicians and after it became a Roman colony (Ocea). In 643 AD it came under the Arabic domination and then it became part of the Ottoman Empire in 1551. As an important gateway between Africa and Europe, commerce prospered through the years. The most important monuments are the Roman Triumphal Arch, which was erected in honour of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the mosques of Karamanli and Gurgi and a Spanish fortress of the 16 th Century. The ancient city of Sabratha, very close to Tripoli, is remarkable for its Greek-Roman Theatre and its byzantine churches.
La Valetta, Malta
Main port and capital of the island of Malta, Valletta is located on a rocky peninsula surrounded by two gulfs. The city has been a crossroad since the time of the Phoenicians because of its strategic location between Africa, Europe and the Middle East. It used to be a naval base for the British as recently as 1979. As from 1570, the city owes its name to the Great Order of Malta, Jean Parisot of Valletta. Built in the style of an ancient city, Valletta hides a superb collection of palaces and baroque style churches. Valletta's magnificent fortifications appear on the horizon like an elaborate sand castle. Within its walls are the riches of the crusading St. John, who fled here from Rhodes in 1530 and ammased great treasures of art and architecture, before they were expelled by Napoleon.
Cagliari, Italy
Cagliari is the capital of Sardinia and its main port. The city dates back to the pre-historic times and has been dominated by various people through the ages.
Marseilles, France
Part of the region of Provence, this ancient seaport - the oldest city in France- is now the second largest city after Paris. You will enjoy a walk through the picturesque old port of this cosmopolitan city rich in history, culture and folklore.
