Treasure Troves of Corsica & Sardinia, 7 August 2028

Cruise overview

Rustic pastas garnished with regional sheep cheeses and hearty red wines enhance the cultural flavors of this seven-day Sardinia cruise. Visit popular Italian vacation spots that are destinations rich in unhurried authenticity. Venture inland from Bastia to the tiny, terraced village of Oletta and sample family-owned Corsican wines in the shade of olive and chestnut groves. Relax in the quiet solitude of an Ajaccio beach or nibble on dried hams, colorful olives, and succulent fruits at the daily morning market at Corsica’s coastal capital. Learn about Alghero’s Catalan origins and Gothic architecture, then linger late into the evening over plates of decadent Sardinian pasta flavored with local pecorino romano cheeses during an overnight port stay. Shop for handcrafted Sardinian ceramics and leather bags or relax with beachside refreshments among locals in the tiny port of Golfo Aranci.
