All-Inclusive Mediterranean Islands Cruise with Rome Stay, 20 June 2027

Cruise overview

Rome sets the scene before the sea even comes into view. After a night in the Italian capital, Seabourn Ovation carries you through some of the Mediterranean’s most storied waters, from the wild, mountainous coast of Corsica to the sun-bleached streets of Palermo, where Arab, Norman and Baroque architecture stand shoulder to shoulder as if the centuries never quite sorted themselves out. A day in La Goulette opens the door to Tunis and the ancient ruins of Carthage beyond, lending the journey a depth that sits well beyond the usual island circuit. The Amalfi Coast brings everything to a close in suitably dramatic fashion, those vertiginous cliffs and colour-washed villages offering a final, lingering impression before the ship returns to Civitavecchia. It is a route that rewards the curious, connecting cultures and landscapes that feel genuinely distinct from one another, threaded together by the unhurried rhythm of life on board.
