Scheduled flight from Germany to Venice and transfer to embarkation point
Venice/Italy
Overnight stay on board
With more than 400 bridges and countless palazzi lining the canals, many people consider “La Serenissima” the most beautiful city in the world. Its unique highlights include St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, the Rialto Bridge and a gondola ride through the canals*.
Venice, departure 14.00 hrs
Relaxation at sea
Kerkyra/Corfu/Ionian Islands/Greece, 7.00 – 14.00 hrs
Lush, green and more Italian than Greek: Empress Elisabeth of Austria loved the island and had her summer palace Achilleion* built there. Active guests can explore the island on horseback*, whereas gourmets can opt for the culinary variant*.
Messina/Sicily/Italy, 10.00 – 19.00 hrs
Cruising off Stromboli late in the evening
The charms of Sicily: wander through the coastal city, perhaps taking a detour to go shopping. Alternatively, explore the volcanic landscape surrounding Etna in the cable car and all-terrain vehicles*, or visit Taormina*, which towers high above the Ionian Sea.
Capri/Italy , 12.00 – 19.00 hrs
Be it artists, politicians or writers, Capri has attracted the European jet set for over 100 years. Discover a holiday paradise bathed sunlight and which changes in colour from one hour to the next. The highlight of the island is a place without sunlight – the legendary Blue Grotto – which you can explore on your own before the EUROPA 2 cruises around the island at sunset.
Civitavecchia (Rome)/Italy , 8.00 – 20.00 hrs
All roads lead to Rome: explore the Eternal City and its sights at your own pace or on a city tour*. Almost a must-see: visit the Vatican Museum*, home to the “The Creation of Adam” in the Sistine Chapel.
Bonifacio/Corsica/France , 8.00 – 18.00 hrs
As if on a balcony, the town is perched over the sea on a limestone plateau. Take a city tour through perhaps the most impressive old town in the Mediterranean. A potential alternative programme is a trip to the beach on the Iles Lavezzi*.
Portofino/Italy , 10.00 – 19.00 hrs
Rub shoulders with high society and take a stroll along the bustling seafront with its boutiques and cafes. Set off on a kayak* adventure or a Stand Up Paddling tour* to the most beautiful bays in Portofino and its fascinating underwater world.
Nice/France , 8.00 – 19.00 hrs
Monte Carlo/Monaco, arrival 21.00 hrs
Overnight stay on board
Nice
Elegant and sophisticated, the city on the Cote d’Azur is a hotspot for the international jet set alongside Monaco. Enjoy the exclusive lifestyle during a ride in a Ferrari* along the French Riviera or on an excursion to Cannes and Antibes*. Provence lies away from the glamour. The picturesque village of Saint-Paul de Vence* is situated in the heart of Provence.
Monte Carlo
Monte Carlo Casino is one of the most beautiful and famous casinos in the world. “Faites vos jeux” before your cruise comes to an end on the following day.
Monte Carlo
Transfer to Nice for a scheduled flight to Germany

Sun 09.07 Nice – Opio Valbonne Golf Club
The oldest golf course in the region is nestled between the port of Nice and Grasse, a town famous for its perfume industry. In 1966, the fairways were carved out of the old forest on the plateau. The course has been modernised several times since then, most recently in 2002. Today, the 18 holes are in impeccable condition and consist of two halves: the first nine holes are obviously slightly more difficult, whereas the last nine are the more leisurely. The fairways are of considerable length.
