The highlights of this cruise

Italy between picturesque coasts and ancient world heritage, the green sides of Greece from the island of Corfu to the mythical cities of the Peloponnese – combine the most beautiful views of nature and culture of the eastern Mediterranean.

After a night in NAPLES, you will reach idyllic SORRENTO. Besides its location, the small town is also famous for its delicious lemons, from which limoncello is made. TROPEA was voted the most beautiful village in the country – why don’t you see for yourself? The houses of the old town reach up to the steep coastal cliffs, and from here you can already see your next destination, the volcanic island of STROMBOLI. Close to Mount Etna* lies SYRACUSE, which, apart from its archaeological heritage, also boasts fertile wine-growing areas*. Spend your day in the beautiful port of MONOPOLI and look forward to Greece’s most charming views: visit CORFU, the favourite island of Empress Sissi, go in search of historical traces in Tiryns, Mycenae and Epidauros* from NAUPLIA, and indulge in almond pastries in the exclusive tavernas of SPETSES.

  • At anchor

  • Crossing the Ponte Santa Lucia and Ponte Nuevo bridges, you’ll reach the historic heart of Syracuse, a city in south-eastern Sicily that was once one of the most powerful commercial centres of the ancient world. The centrally located Neapolis archaeological park includes the Roman amphitheatre, the Teatro Greco and the Orecchio di Dionisio, a limestone cave shaped like a human ear. The impressive cathedral of Santa Maria delle Colonne was built on the site of several temples dedicated to the goddess Athena. Thanks to this fascinating blend of ancient and baroque elements, Syracuse has earned UNESCO World Heritage status.

  • Corfu, the green island of Greece, has a rich history and breathtaking sights on offer. Explore the old town of Kerkyra with its Venetian fortifications, visit ancient sites such as the Archaeological Museum and the Achilleion Palace. Immerse yourself in the charming villages, enjoy the idyllic beaches and explore the breathtaking natural beauty of the island’s interior. Corfu offers a perfect combination of culture, history and natural beauty – unforgettable experiences await you.
  • From Pylos in the Peloponnese, you can go on some wonderful excursions into the surrounding area. Visit the ancient city of Messene, explore the impressive Methoni Castle or relax on the idyllic beaches of Voidokilia. A visit to the famous caves in Pylos with their fascinating formations is a real highlight.
  • Nauplia, also known Nafplio, offers a picturesque old town with narrow streets, cobbled squares and colourful buildings. Highlights include the fortress of Palamidi, the Acropolis of Nauplia, Syntagma Square and Bourtzi Castle situated on a small island off the coast. The town is also an ideal starting point for visiting the ancient sites of Mycenae and Epidaurus. With its rich history and beautiful atmosphere, Nauplia is a popular destination for visitors who want to experience the authentic Greek flair.
