26 Apr '27Cruise overview
Before the ship even sets sail, this journey has already surprised you. Three nights in Milan give way to a full day riding the Bernina Express through the Swiss Alps, one of the great train journeys in Europe, where the tracks climb so high that the world below seems to disappear entirely. Then comes a night in Genoa, and the moment Seabourn Ovation slips out of the harbour and into open water, the Mediterranean opens up ahead of you. What follows is a route that resists the obvious. White limestone cliffs announce Corsica from the sea. Tunis pulls you back thousands of years to the ruins of Carthage. And Palermo, perhaps the most layered city on this voyage, wears its Arab and Norman past openly, in its architecture, its markets and its food. By the time you reach Rome, the journey feels less like a holiday and more like something you will spend months thinking about.
