Cruise overview

Scenic vineyards, dizzying Amalfi coastal vistas, timeless village piazzas, and imposing ancient Roman ruins make perfect backdrops for this cruise along Italy’s coast to the isles of Corsica and Sardinia. Relax on a sandy beach outside Ponza or escape on a boat tour to the clear turquoise waters and sundrenched shorelines punctuated by shadowy coastal grottos. Sip the sweetness of local Amalfi limoncello and tour the haunting ruins of Pompeii. Cycle past unique and colorful geologic wonders on Lipari–the largest and most storied of the seven Aeolian isles–then pause at an Italian hamlet for liquid refreshments and light bites drenched in olive oil. Luxuriate along the Emerald Coast near Porto Cervo, Sardinia’s luxurious enclave for reclusive yacht owners and Europe’s most expensive real estate. Inspect the clifftop fortifications and dramatic vistas of Bonifacio, Corsica’s oldest settlement known for its dramatic cliffs, medieval citadel, and stunning coastal views.
