This voyage is dips into some of Europe’s most culturally intriguing corners as we loop around the Italian coastline. After the famed wonders of Venice, we enjoy an overnight in Ravenna, the treasures of which were largely hidden from the world for centuries, ensuring their near-perfect preservation. Be dazzled by Roman and Byzantine mosaics of astonishing intricacy, witness fish swimming in a flooded crypt, and visit the tomb of Italy’s most famous poet, Dante. Then we enter Croatian waters, calling at the island of Korcula with its beautiful medieval center framed by pine forests and cerulean waters. Puglia is next, with a stop in Bari where you can explore its picturesque old town, try its delicious food or take a trip to see the region’s amazing trulli houses. A day at sea brings an opportunity to relax before we’re back on the sightseeing trail, with stops in Valletta, Malta’s sunny capital built by the Knights of St John in the 1500s; Trapani, the myth-steeped city on Sicily’s dramatic western coast; and Naples, with its incredible food scene. Our journey ends at Civitavecchia, your gateway to the marvels of Rome.

Your Itinerary

01.

Fusina (Venice), Italy

may 11, 2027

departure 10:00 PM

In 2019, UNESCO warned the Italian government that Venice risked being added to the “World Heritage Sites in Danger” list due to the continuous damage caused by large ships to the city's fragile architecture and ecosystem. In response, the government designated Venice's waterways as national monuments—a status typically reserved for artworks and historical buildings—granting the lagoon enhanced state protection. The new regulations require ships longer than 590 feet to find alternative berthing locations. Fusina, a nearby industrial port adhering to maritime safety and environmental laws, emerged as the solution. Although the port is not as picturesque as Venice's Grand Canal, a scenic 30-minute boat ride from Fusina brings visitors to a central city pier, offering a perfect starting point to explore all of Venice's romantic, watery attractions.

02.

Ravenna, Italy

may 12, 2027

arrival 8:00 AM

Overnight

13 EXCURSIONS

Visiting Ravenna is like discovering buried treasure. This gem of the Roman Empire sits equidistant between Venice and Florence on the Adriatic coast yet remains relatively under the radar compared to the region's bigger name cities. There are none other than eight UNESCO World Heritage sites within the city walls, all of which honor Ravenna's astonishing churches and showcase a blend of 5th and 6th-century Graeco-Roman craftsmanship, Christian iconography, and oriental and Western styles; the Basilica di San Vitale, renowned for its elaborate mosaics, and the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, with its stunning starry sky dome, are highlights. Italy's most celebrated poet, Dante Alighieri, is buried in the Basilica San Francesco, and even Lord Byron lived here, between1819 and 1821 (on via Conte di Cavour). Once you've worked up an appetite drinking in all the culture, head to the bustling Piazza del Popolo for an aperitivo and piadina, the city's famous flatbread sandwich.

There is no shortage of beautiful, historical places in Sicily, but Trapani, on the island's west coast, seems to have it all.Once the port for the Elymian settlement of Eryx, the city became a Carthaginian naval base in 260 BCE before the Romans took it over in 241 BCE. It thrived through the Middle Ages, and much of the medieval old city remains intact. Discover the historic center with its narrow alleys, small shops, and cozy trattorias. Once you've worked up an appetite, find a shady terrace and sample the morning-fresh seafood washed down with a glass of local Marsala wine. The area is one of the most important coastal wetlands, providing sanctuary to many migratory birds. Head to the salt flats at the Riserva Naturale Saline di Trapani e Paceco, just three miles from the port, where white pyramids of salt and pink flamingos create a colorful, striking scene.Of course, no trip to Sicily would be complete without a dip in the sea; surrounded by turquoise waters, pristine sands, and rugged coastline, Trapani's beaches are a delight for sun worshipers.
