Cruise overview

Legends like Rome, Venice, and Dubrovnik just scratch the surface of this cruise to Italy and the Dalmatian Coast. Take your time investigating both sides of Italy’s “boot” from the Vatican and Sicilian pizza to Venice’s St. Mark’s Square. We’ll linger in southern Italy to explore unique small Puglian towns mostly known only to locals. Cruise past the stunning white cliffs of Vibo Valentia – like Dover, only with sandy beaches, olive trees, and bougainvillea. Pop your head inside the conical white trulli houses in Alberobello, and the Reggio Calabria Museum with its life-sized bronze Riace Warriors – Greek treasures recovered after more than 2,000 years under the sea. Find yourself overwhelmed by the baroque beauty of Lecce, the Florence of the South, and delve into a southern Italian culinary culture that turns pasta and seafood into works of art. Across the Adriatic you’ll find medieval walled cities like Dubrovnik and Kotor, with late stays in both so you can wander Old Town streets and admire the view from a kayak. Discover Croatia’s amazing beaches, travertine waterfalls, and the lush green pine forests and bicycle trails of Rab – a small, unspoiled gem with all the terracotta

Itinerary

Day 1

Venice

Venice is a city unlike any other. No matter how often you’ve seen it in photos and films, the real thing is more dreamlike than you could imagine. With canals where streets should be, water shimmers everywhere. The fabulous palaces and churches reflect centuries of history in what was a wealthy trading center between Europe and the Orient. Getting lost in the narrow alleyways is a quintessential part of exploring Venice, but at some point you’ll almost surely end up in Piazza San Marco, where tourists and locals congregate for a coffee or an aperitif.
