Day 1 - Barcelona

Arrive: Tue 20 April 2021 / Depart: Tue 20 April 2021 at 17:00

Whatever your opinion about form over function, you'll have to admit that Gaudi made an impression on Barcelona with his modernist architecture. Do you love it or hate it? While you're here, stroll the Ramblas shopping avenue and visit the Gothic Quarter, or stop at a Benedictine monastery, and contemplate the bizarre works of Picasso at a museum dedicated only to him.

Day 2 - Provence

Arrive: Wed 21 April 2021 at 08:00 / Depart: Wed 21 April 2021 at 18:00

Day 3 - Monte Carlo

Arrive: Thu 22 April 2021 at 08:00 / Depart: Thu 22 April 2021 at 18:00

Nothing more than a tiny Principality, Monaco steals much more of the international limelight than its size decently permits. But it's the Grand Casino, of course, where you must peer into the enchanting Salon Rose to see its naked nymph-clad ceiling. It's also the palace and the cathedral, the Rock of Monaco and the harbor, packed to the gills with million-dollar motor yachts—and those are just the modest one

Day 4 - Livorno

Arrive: Fri 23 April 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Fri 23 April 2021 at 19:00

Access to the best of Tuscany: Florence, with its magnificent art and architecture and elegant shopping; Pisa's Leaning Tower; and ancient Lucca. Sample shore excursions: Tuscan Countryside & Wine Tasting; Florence & the Academia.

Day 5 - Rome

Arrive: Sat 24 April 2021 at 07:00 / Depart: Sat 24 April 2021 at 19:00

In the footsteps of the Ceasar you will spend your time in the Eternal City. From the Roman Forum, it's a short walk to the Colosseum, the Arch of Constantine and Palatine Hill. Across the Tiber River, the Sovereign State of the Vatican holds the key to the Sistine Chapel and Bernini's awesome colonnade.

Day 6 - Naples

Arrive: Sun 25 April 2021 at 08:00 / Depart: Sun 25 April 2021 at 19:00

School children everywhere know the story of Pompeii and the eruption of Mt Vesuvius that destroyed it. In real life, Pompeii is even more impressive, as meticulous excavation has bared the soul of a city frozen in time since AD 79. For a breath of fresh air, sail across the bay to the flowery Isle of Capri or visit the ostentatious boutiques of Sorrento.

Day 7 - Cruising Strait of Messina

Day 7 - Taormina

Arrive: Mon 26 April 2021 at 10:00 / Depart: Mon 26 April 2021 at 23:00

Over the centuries, this place has fascinated restless poets, writers and painters who decided to put down roots here, maybe because they were so inspired by Taormina's stunning natural beauty. Wander through the ancient city streets, take photographs of the Greco-Roman Theater, and treat yourself to authentic Italian cuisine in a breathtaking setting.
