At the hotel, visit our hospitality desk in the lobby to meet our team who will provide you with useful information regarding pre-embarkation procedures and about your time in Athens. You will also receive cabin tags for your luggage. Please clearly label the tags with your name and your cabin number on the ship. This evening offers time to relax in preparation for tomorrow. Accommodation: Athens Hotel","lat":"37.98381","lng":"23.727539"},{"title":"Day 2: Athens","name":"Athens","description":"After breakfast, enjoy a morning ‘Your Choice’ experience. Walk in Socrates' footsteps, explore the ancient wonders of the Acropolis, or immerse yourself in Athens' vibrant food scene with a local guide. You can then rejoin the coach to return to our hotel or take a leisurely stroll to the nearby Plaka district. This charming area is filled with streets and alleys lined with restaurants, cafes, and shops—ideal for a bite to eat or picking up gifts (lunch at your own expense). Tonight, we kick off our journey with a Welcome Event, celebrating Greek style. With a rich recorded history spanning 3,500 years, Athens is a city brimming with stories. Widely hailed as the ‘cradle of civilisation’ and revered as the birthplace of democracy, philosophy and theatre, Athens seamlessly merges its illustrious past with its vibrant present. This bustling metropolis, home to three million inhabitants, is adorned with a wealth of ancient sites that punctuate its landscape like temples, iconic columns and former city centres. Athens’ influence in antiquity transcended its borders, ushering in a Golden Age characterised by political discussion, education and philosophy, hosting luminaries such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. The democratic principles forged in Athens laid the groundwork for modern governance systems worldwide. Yet, Athens is more than just a relic of ancient history. As a historical seat of power, it has weathered waves of invasions, shaping its contemporary identity with a diverse fusion of architectural styles, culinary delights and cultural traditions. Whether you are wandering amid ancient ruins or indulging in the flavours of modern Greek cuisine, Athens offers a captivating journey through the ages, beckoning travellers from across the globe to explore its timeless allure. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: A Taste of Athens For foodie fans, travellers who have visited Athens before, and those who enjoy a personal view of Athens, this experience is perfect. We begin our guided walk at Syntagma Square, where Greece’s Parliament building stands, guarded by traditionally attired Evzone guards. Our local expert warmly welcomes you to their home city, leading you on an intriguing walking tour through Athens’ historical areas. With passion and knowledge, they unveil authentic Athens and its secrets. Stroll through Plaka, the charming ‘old quarter’ of Athens nestled at the base of the Acropolis. Admire its eclectic neoclassical architecture, picturesque alleys, and inviting tavernas. Pause at a colourful local cafe to indulge in Greek delicacies such as olives, fragrant cheeses and cured meats. Continue through Monastir Aki, famous for its bustling flea market and vibrant shops brimming with local crafts and souvenirs. From there, we wander to Thission, offering the best panoramic views of the Acropolis, Ancient Agora, and the majestic Temple of Hephaestus. Here, we treat ourselves to a traditional Greek coffee, accompanied perhaps by a sweet delight like baklava, a favourite among Greeks for its rich layers of pastry, nuts and honey. Our morning offers us a taste of this fascinating city. Option 2 – Morning experience: Ancient Athens This comprehensive tour combines a visit to the Acropolis with the city’s major landmarks. Begin with a view of the Greek parliament at Syntagma Square, once a royal residence, where the iconic Evzones still stand guard in traditional attire. Next, enjoy a brief photo stop at the Panathenaic Stadium, the site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896, where athletes revived the ancient Olympic spirit. Perched high above the city, the Acropolis is not only an architectural marvel, but also a symbol of the birthplace of democracy. This ancient citadel stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Greek culture and ideals, representing advancements in art, architecture and political thought that originated in Athens. Feel the essence of civic pride and religious devotion in ancient Greek society, at the city’s centre for political and cultural life. The Parthenon exemplifies the height of classical Greek architecture, adorned with Doric columns and intricate sculptures. Built under the leadership of Pericles, the Parthenon symbolised the city’s wealth and power, with friezes and statues depicting various mythological scenes. After touring the Acropolis, take a short walk to the Acropolis Museum. This modern museum houses over 3,000 artefacts from the Athenian Acropolis, offering unique insights into ancient Greek life and including an archaeological excavation beneath it. (Note: Entrance time to the Acropolis is a local government stipulated time slot. The sequence of the above itinerary may change once the specific time slot is allocated.) Option 3 – Morning experience: ‘In the Sandal prints of Socrates’ Blending philosophy with the rich history of Athens', ‘In the Sandals of Socrates’ is the ultimate walking tour of the city. Our journey begins at the hilltop agora, where Athenians once gathered to freely express their opinions and debate issues of the day. Ancient Greece birthed Western philosophical ethics, thanks to Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, ensuring its place in history. Next, we head to Philopappos Hill, a significant place in the life of Socrates. Here, you’ll find the prison where he was held for corrupting the youth of Athens, and the Pnyx, the birthplace of democratic ideals. The view of the Acropolis from the hilltop is stunning. Strolling down a pedestrian street lined with cafes and vendors, we make our way to Hadrian’s Arch and the Temple of Olympian Zeus. Our walk continues to the Lyceum, Aristotle’s school, passing by the National Garden and Zappeion Hall. The tour concludes at the Lyceum, excavated and opened to the public in 2014. Here, we walk in the footsteps of great philosophers, linking ancient and modern Athens in this fascinating journey.

Revisit your favourite sites, explore the city’s markets and shops, or discover hidden treasures on an independent exploration. Athens’ extensive metro network makes it easy to navigate the city, while the warm Greek hospitality ensures you are never far from helpful advice on how to make the most of your time. Mid-afternoon, we transfer from our hotel to the port of Piraeus to board the Douglas Mawson and sail towards the famed island of Mykonos. This evening, we enjoy a ‘Welcome Aboard’ dinner where we meet our crew and AE Expeditions team.","lat":"37.964","lng":"23.632367"},{"title":"Day 4: Mykonos","name":"Mykonos","description":"This morning, we arrive at one of Greece’s most renowned islands. The island of Mykonos, with its iconic whitewashed buildings and charming cobblestone lanes, has been a crossroads of cultures for centuries. Renowned for their hospitality, the people of Mykonos excel at making visitors feel at home amid the island’s historical treasures and picturesque landscapes. From ancient ruins to traditional windmills, Mykonos offers a captivating glimpse into a storied past. The local cuisine, festivals and vibrant arts scene reflect a deep cultural heritage, making Mykonos a unique and enriching destination. While recent years have boosted its reputation for vibrant nightlife, bustling beaches, and world-famous beach clubs, there is much more to discover beyond the surface of this famed island. Delve deeper, and you will find a community that embraces tradition, a fact that truly shines when you engage with the locals. Take the time to chat with them, and you will find that the true wealth of Mykonos lies in its people. Spending time at one of Mykonos’s famous beaches is a popular way to enjoy your day. If this is your preference, we recommend taking a taxi from the port to your chosen beach. Many of Mykonos’ beaches are lined with restaurants, clubs, and hotels, which provide rows of recliners on the section of the beach adjacent to their property. These establishments often offer food and beverages to their beachfront clients and charge a fee for using their facilities. Therefore, be prepared to pay when visiting many of Mykonos’ beaches. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: Iconic Mykonos Explore some of Mykonos’ most stunning locations this morning on this locally guided tour. Witness local fishermen with their “kaikis” (traditional fishing boats), admire the quaint private chapels, and marvel at the charming Cycladic architecture. Your first destination is Ano Mera, a quintessential Cycladic village that enchants visitors with its beauty. At its heart lies the historic Panagia Tourliani Monastery, a cultural and spiritual landmark. Ano Mera serves as a gateway to renowned beaches like Elia and Kalafatis. The village’s public square is encircled by a labyrinth of interconnected lanes, where traditional bakeries, cafes, and taverns offer an authentic taste of local life. Next, you will visit Kalafatis Beach, where you can enjoy free time to soak in the stunning blue waters of the Aegean Sea. The tour continues with a walking tour of Mykonos Town, also known as Chora. This mesmerising town is a maze of narrow streets, characterised by brilliant white buildings adorned with vibrant blue accents. The bustling alleyways are filled with chic boutiques, quaint cafes, and lively tavernas, offering a diverse array of experiences. The iconic windmills, once used to mill grain and a symbol of the island’s agricultural past, stand proudly overlooking the Aegean Sea. The enchanting waterfront area of ‘Little Venice’ blends historical charm and contemporary vibe. Option 2 – Morning experience: Mythical Delos More than any island in the Cyclades archipelago, Delos holds immense significance in Greek mythology and history. Revered as the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, this ancient land was a paramount religious and cultural centre. Delos thrived from around 900 BC to AD 100, evolving from a sacred shrine to a bustling commercial hub. However, its decline began after repeated attacks by pirates in the 1st century BC and the eventual shift of trade routes, leading to its abandonment. Today, Delos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, boasting some of the most extensive excavations in the Mediterranean, with ongoing archaeological work still taking place. Located fourteen kilometres off the coast of Mykonos, a thirty-minute boat ride transports us to this historical treasure.

Option 1 – Half-day experience: Ancient Ephesus Join a guided tour of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ephesus this morning with a traditional Turkish lunch after your visit, before returning to the ship mid- afternoon. Step into history with our locally guided tour of Ephesus, one of the best-preserved ancient cities in the world. Originally a Greek settlement, Ephesus flourished under Roman rule, with the Emperor Hadrian dedicating a temple to himself, and the Emperor Trajan adding aqueducts and roads. Sadly, the city’s importance declined due to invasions, and the silting of its harbour, which hindered trade, with it eventually being left in ruins. This guided tour offers a fascinating insight into the lives of those who once thrived here, as we wander among the remarkable ruins of this ancient metropolis. Hosted by our expert guide, we stroll the marble-paved streets of Ephesus, stepping back in time amid the city’s well-preserved ruins.

Visit the iconic Library of Celsus, once home to thousands of scrolls and the tomb of Roman senator Celsus. Its intricately carved columns and statues bring it to life. Explore the Great Theatre, which seated 25,000 cheering spectators for gladiatorial contests and performances.

This Bronze Age settlement, destroyed by a massive eruption in the 17th century BC, was buried under volcanic ash, which remarkably preserved the entire city. The people of Akrotiri were advanced for their time, with a well-organised society evidenced by their sophisticated infrastructure, vibrant frescoes, and complex urban layout. Its inhabitants had a high standard of living, with access to imported goods from across the Mediterranean. The ruins remained hidden until 1860, when workers quarrying volcanic ash for the Suez Canal uncovered them. The discovery of their homes and artifacts provides valuable insights into their daily lives and societal structure. Next, our coach takes us to the picturesque village of Oia, home to around 1,000 residents. This charming village is renowned for its immaculate, white-washed houses and blue-domed churches. The residents here live a relaxed and traditional lifestyle surrounded by stunning views across the Aegean.

Around Chania, the battle was fierce, and several sites remain as reminders of these brutal conflicts. In Maleme, you will see where German paratroopers landed, leading to intense fighting. Nearby, Hill 107 offers a vantage point that witnessed heavy combat. The nearby RAF War Memorial commemorates the bravery of the Royal Air Force, while Galatas, known as “Prison Valley,” marks another pivotal battleground, while the Tavronitis Bridge, vital in the German invasion strategy, stands as a testament to the conflict’s intensity. The war profoundly affected the local people, who suffered great hardship and loss. Many Cretians joined the resistance, bravely fighting alongside Allied forces despite the immense danger. Finally, you will visit the Souda Commonwealth Cemetery, a solemn resting place for Allied soldiers. These sites provide a profound glimpse into the history and heroism of the Battle of Crete, ensuring the sacrifices made are never forgotten. Option 3 – Morning experience: The Holocaust of Arkadi Unlike any other site on Crete, the Monastery of Arkadi offers a profound insight into the island's relentless determination to remain true to its identity. Perched on a plateau near Mount Psiloritis, this historic monastery stands as a powerful symbol of Crete’s quest for freedom from Ottoman rule. Likely founded in the early 14th century, the monastery was transformed into a priory in 1572. During the Cretan uprising against the Ottomans, Arkadi became a revolutionary stronghold. On November 9th, 1866, 15,000 Ottoman troops led by Suleyman the Magnificent surrounded the monastery, laying siege with 30 cannons. Despite a valiant defense by the 350 armed men, and 600 women and children who lived nearby, the monastery eventually fell after intense fighting. In a desperate act of defiance, the gunpowder storage was ignited, leading to a massacre now known as the Holocaust of Arkadi. Today, the Monastery of Arkadi invites visitors to explore its monumental site, which symbolises Crete's enduring spirit. On a locally guided tour we discover its ornate church, and delve into the small museum where Byzantine icons, religious artifacts, and poignant relics from the tragic events of the Holocaust of Arkadi vividly bring the island’s dramatic past to life.","lat":"35.516667","lng":"24.133333"},{"title":"Day 8: Katakolon","name":"Katakolon","description":"Today, our ‘Your Choice’ experiences are truly Olympic in scope, offering you two classic Greek treats.

Option 1 – Morning experience: An Olympic Encounter Renowned as the birthplace of the ancient Olympic Games, the 8th-century BCE site of Olympia was the Greek world’s most revered religious sanctuary, dedicated to Zeus, the king of the gods. The site housed numerous temples, altars, and sporting facilities, with the Temple of Zeus featuring a 40-foot statue of Zeus sitting on an elaborate cedarwood throne adorned with ebony, ivory, gold and precious stones. This statue was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Held every four years from 776 BCE to 393 CE, the games at Olympia attracted athletes from all over the Greek world. Over 45,000 spectators cheered on their sporting heroes, who competed in a range of sports such as running, wrestling, boxing, and chariot racing. The games were not only a display of physical prowess, but also a celebration of Greek unity and religious devotion. Victors were awarded olive wreaths and gained immense prestige and honour in their home cities. Today, Olympia continues to influence the modern Olympic Games. Many of the ancient sports, lost throughout the centuries, were revived in 1896 by Pierre de Coubertin’s ‘Modern Olympics’. The Olympic flame, a symbol of peace and unity, is lit in a ceremony at the ancient site of Olympia before every modern Olympics, and then relayed to the host city. This tradition underscores the connection between the ancient and modern games. A visit to Olympia is a lesson not only in its historical and archaeological importance, but also in its lasting impact on global culture through the ongoing tradition of the Olympic Games. The site fosters a spirit of unity and excellence that resonates nearly 3,000 years after those first games. Our local guide brings the story of Olympia to life with tales of sporting heroes, revered gods, and generations of families who have lived on this land. The museum is a short walk from the site and contains the 4th-century BCE statue of Hermes by Praxiteles, plus several finds from the excavations, including Paeonius’ Nike of Victory, who according to Olympic legend, came down from the heavens to hand a palm leaf to every winner.

Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a classic shot of ouzo, a beloved Greek spirit celebrated for its distinct anise flavour and potent clarity. Integral to Greek culture, ouzo is often savoured as an aperitif or paired with meze (small dishes). Accompanying the ouzo is a freshly baked local pie, served as our hosts share insights into the estate’s non-mechanised olive-harvesting techniques. Delve into a captivating history of olive oil and its revered properties, underscoring the profound connection between Greek cuisine and the land.

As the capital of Italy’s up-and-coming Puglia region, Bari is undergoing a renaissance, transforming once-neglected suburbs into colourful neighbourhoods. The city’s bustling port has been a hub of trade and culture for centuries, showcasing its rich maritime heritage, while Bari’s charming old town, Bari Vecchia, features narrow, winding streets leading to historical sites like the Basilica di San Nicola and the imposing Norman-Swabian Castle. Famed for its orecchiette pasta, often handmade by local women right on the streets, Bari adds a personal touch to its culinary scene, with seafood a local specialty. Stories rich in legends such as that of Saint Nicholas, whose relics were brought to Bari from Myra in 1087, further enrich the city’s mystical allure as does a devotion to the 150,000 tons of olive oil produced in the region annually, which funds its ongoing facelift. Option 1 – Morning experience: UNESCO World Heritage Site - Alberobello A one-hour drive takes us to the unique town of Alberobello, where our local guide introduces us to its streets lined with enchanting trulli houses. These whitewashed limestone dwellings with their conical roofs, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and symbolise the region’s rich architectural heritage. Strolling through Alberobello’s narrow lanes makes you feel like you’re in a fairytale village. The story behind the trulli is as fascinating as their appearance. Their cone-shaped roofs, constructed without mortar, allowed residents to dismantle the houses quickly – an ingenious form of tax evasion during medieval times when property taxes were levied based on the number of permanent dwellings. Today, Alberobello is more than just a historical curiosity; it is a vibrant town where we can explore local crafts, savour traditional Apulian cuisine and immerse ourselves in the magical ambience of this wonderfully quirky town. Option 2 – Morning experience: UNESCO World Heritage Site – Castel di Monte Sitting on a hilltop dominating the countryside of Andria, the 13th-century Castel del Monte is a monolithic octagonal fortress with a layout of mathematical and astronomical precision, reflecting the cultural vision of its patron, Emperor Frederick II. Frederick II, also known as ‘Stupor Mundi’ (Wonder of the World), was born in Jesi, Italy, and governed the Holy Roman Empire, including much of Italy and Germany. What makes Castel del Monte special is its unique design and mysterious purpose. Its octagonal plan with octagonal towers at each angle symbolises Frederick’s quest for perfection, while the fusion of cultural influences highlights the emperor’s aim to unite diverse traditions and knowledge. This forethinking emperor was an advocate of modern humanism, bringing scholars from across the Mediterranean to his court, blending Eastern and Western traditions. The castle’s innovative features, such as the Arabic-style hydraulic installations for bathing, reflect his desire to incorporate engineering techniques from around the world. Despite its grandeur, Castel del Monte was abandoned after Frederick’s death, likely due to its remote location and lack of defensive features. Today, it stands as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of southern Italy’s most intriguing landmarks. Option 3 – Full-day experience: UNESCO World Heritage Site - Matera Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in southern Italy, enchants us with its ancient Sassi cave dwellings carved out of limestone cliffs. As we wander the labyrinthine streets of the suburbs of Sasso Caveoso and Sasso Barisano, we enter its troglodyte dwellings, many of which were inhabited until the 1950s, while we ponder the intricate rock churches adorned with Byzantine frescoes. Matera’s Sassi cave dwellings, once inhabited for millennia, were gradually abandoned due to poor living conditions and social issues in the mid-20th century. The cramped spaces lacked sanitation and basic amenities, leading to health concerns and government intervention to relocate residents to modern housing. This exodus left the ancient caves vacant for decades until efforts in recent years restored some areas for cultural preservation and tourism. Today, Matera’s Sassi districts stand as a testament to human adaptation and resilience, offering travellers a glimpse into a bygone era, while thanks to Hollywood, Matera’s Sassi districts gained international attention as a location for movies like The Passion of the Christ. This unique town entices us to consider how populations have lived in the past and whether the Adriatic renaissance will breathe new life into this fascinating town.","lat":"41.117143","lng":"16.871871"},{"title":"Day 13: Gallipoli","name":"Gallipoli","description":"As a small ship we moor alongside at the walled coastal town of Gallipoli, our gateway to the ‘bottom of the boot’. This unique town acts as our gateway to the southern tip of Italy, offering time to explore the regions hidden treasures on one of our ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: The Walled City of Gallipoli Our local guide tells tales of the past and present as we enjoy a guided walk of Gallipoli. Situated at the base of Italy’s Apulia region, this picturesque town is steeped in history and Mediterranean charm. Its unique location on a limestone island connected to the mainland by a 17th-century bridge, makes our every step appear medieval. Gallipoli’s maze of narrow streets, lined with whitewashed buildings and ancient churches, creates a true ‘old town’ appeal, while ancient wooden fishing machines, called trabucchi, are now preserved as cultural landmarks along the coast. Derived from the Greek Kallipolis, meaning ‘beautiful city,’ the town’s name reflects its stunning setting overlooking the Ionian Sea. Gallipoli fascinates with its storied past involving pirates who raided its shores during the medieval and Renaissance periods, prompting the construction of defensive fortifications like the Castello Angioino, which dominate its walls. This pirate history adds another layer to Gallipoli’s rich sense of maritime heritage, making it an intriguing destination. Option 2 – Morning experience: Lecce Heralded as the ‘Florence of the South’, Lecce lies around 30 minutes’ drive from Gallipoli. This impressive town played a crucial role in spreading Renaissance and baroque influences from the powerful duchies of the north to the southern peninsula. It flourished as a hub of artistic and architectural innovation, attracting scholars, artists and architects who enriched its cultural heritage. The city’s renowned baroque architecture, characterised by intricate ornamentation and the use of local golden limestone, reflects this period. The central square, Piazza Sant’Oronzo, is the beating heart of Lecce. It stands at the end of the majestic Colonna del Santo Patrono, erected by the inhabitants to express gratitude for the city’s deliverance from a devastating plague that threatened the Kingdom of Naples in the 17th century, but Lecce’s cultural vitality extends beyond its architecture. The city is renowned for its traditional festivals, lively markets and delicious cuisine. Local specialties, like rustico leccese and pasticciotto leccese, are tempting treats best enjoyed with a glass of Primitivo wine from nearby vineyards. Whether admiring its architectural wonders, savouring its culinary delights, or simply soaking in its laid-back charm, Lecce offers us a cultural fix in the heart of Puglia. Option 3 – Full-day experience: Otranto’s Adriatic Coast We cross the peninsula to explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Otranto. This historic town boasts a 16-mile coastline with diverse seascapes, from sandy beaches to rugged cliffs and secluded coves, ideal for a refreshing swim. The town’s eclectic streets are lined with historic buildings, including the imposing Aragonese Castle, which dominates the townscape. Constructed from 1485 by Alfonso of Aragon, this fortress was built to defend against Turkish raids and features a striking pentagonal layout and deep moat. Today we will enjoy a leisurely stroll through Otranto, a swim in the warm waters of the Adriatic and a delicious lunch featuring Apulian specialities, making this a quintessential Italian day out. (Note: swimming at your own discretion.)","lat":"40.05","lng":"17.983333"},{"title":"Day 14: Crotone","name":"Crotone","description":"We follow the Italian coast west towards Sicily, with a stop at the Calabrian city of Crotone. Overlooking the Ionian Sea, Crotone boasts a fascinating old town where the medieval Castello di Carlo V stands as a testament to its storied past. Founded by Greek colonists, this ancient city was once home to everyone’s favourite mathematician: Pythagoras. A symbol of Crotone is the Capo Colonna promontory, housing the last standing column of the ancient Temple of Hera Lacinia. Dedicated to the queen of the Greek gods, this temple was a significant religious sanctuary during the days of Magna Graecia, drawing pilgrims and worshippers from across the region. In recent years, Crotone has revitalised its marina and beachfront, becoming a perfect spot for sailing and sunbathing. Despite modern development, remnants of its old-town charm persist, while its coastal waters, stretching to Capo Rizzuto, form Italy’s largest protected marine reserve. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: Le Castella Perched on a narrow strip of land facing the island of Capo Rizzuto, Le Castella’s medieval fortress dominates this fishing village. With origins dating back to 204 BCE, it is believed by some scholars to have inspired Homer’s mythical island of Calypso, adding an air of mystery. The fortress was rebuilt by the wealthy Kingdom of Aragon of Spain and then by the influential Angevin dynasty of France, transforming it into a formidable fortification to protect the vulnerable coastline of their far-flung influence. The village of Le Castella is also renowned for its traditional ceramics. Local artisans create distinctive pottery and masks that highlight the region’s cultural heritage. The narrow streets and traditional buildings of the village provide a picturesque setting for the fortress. A locally guided tour offers the chance to explore the fortress, discover local ceramics, and immerse yourself in the village’s character, capturing the essence of Calabria’s coastal charm. Option 2 – Morning experience: The Hilltop Village of Santa Severina With a population of just 2,000, the hilltop village of Santa Severina offers a charming glimpse into southern Calabrian life. Our visit immerses us in the authentic atmosphere of this picturesque town, where narrow streets and traditional stone buildings create a timeless ambiance. Central to our exploration is the Castle of Santa Severina, a striking symbol of the village’s rich history. Covering approximately 10,000 square metres, the fortress commands an impressive view over the Neto River valley. Built in the 11th century by Norman King Robert Guiscard on the ruins of a Byzantine fort, it features a square keep, four cylindrical towers, and projecting bastions. The castle is one of southern Italy’s best-preserved military fortresses and houses the Archaeological Museum of Santa Severina, which displays artefacts from the castle and the Neto Valley. Beyond the village, we enjoy a wine tasting at a nearby farm, savouring typical Calabrian food and local Cirò wine. This delightful experience complements our exploration of Santa Severina, offering a full taste of Calabria’s heritage and flavours. Option 3 – Full-day experience: The Secret Silk Producers of Calabria Calabria, known for its pivotal role in Europe’s silk history, invites you to delve into its past at the San Floro Silk Museum, located within the Caracciolo Castle. Overlooking the Corace Valley, this castle, built in the 1400s, preserves the rich legacy of Calabrian silk. During the 14th to 18th centuries, Catanzaro was coveted as the epicentre of silk production, with San Floro at its heart. The museum’s first section features historical costumes, Catanzaro damask, and sacred vestments, reflecting the region’s prominence in silk craftsmanship. The second section highlights contemporary raw silk artefacts, including crocheted pieces and textiles made on traditional four-heddle looms. A highlight of the day is a guided farm visit, as we walk through a pine forest and mulberry fields, where 3,500 Kokusò variety plants and silkworms bring the ancient silk-making process to life. Experience feeding the silkworms, witness silk reeling, and end your visit with a tasting of local organic products under a century-old pine tree. This immersive experience weaves together Calabria’s rich silk history with its cultural heritage.","lat":"39.083333","lng":"17.133333"},{"title":"Day 15: Messina","name":"Messina","description":"This morning, we arrive in Messina, the guardian of Sicily. Overlooking the entrance to the Straits of Messina, just a short 15-minute ferry ride from the Italian mainland, Messina has long been a pivotal city in the region. Though it has endured numerous invasions and disasters, including two major earthquakes and a tsunami that devastated the town, Messina remains resilient. Historically notable for its role in World War II, when it was the site of a famous race between Generals Montgomery and Eisenhower to reach the city first, Messina now serves as our gateway to Europe’s highest active volcano and the surrounding coastal treasures. Our morning experiences offer a variety of activities. Scale Mt. Etna, take a seat at an ancient Roman Ampitheatre for one of the best views in Sicily, or follow Francis Ford Coppola’s iconic trilogy on a ‘Godfather’ tour. Returning to the ship, we sail north through the Straits of Messina in the early afternoon enjoying lunch onboard as we return to the Italian mainland. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 ‒ Morning experience: Taormina Topped by an ancient Greco-Roman theatre, with spectacular views of Mt Etna, the hilltop enclave of Taormina is at the top of the list when it comes to visiting Sicily. Once a holiday resort for Greeks and Romans, it attracted numerous foes, however today it fights a different form of invasion with the town performing solidly on the Hollywood A-lister bucket list. Its luxurious hotels, restaurants and tile-terraced piazzas appear on the front page of Vogue, and with views across the Mediterranean, no wonder it is a ‘must see’ for all travellers to Italy. Option 2 ‒ Morning experience: The Godfather Follow the footsteps of Marlin Brando and Al Pacino on the guided tour of ‘Godfather’ proportions. Our first stop is the charming village of Savoca, one of the picturesque seafront towns immortalised in Francis Ford Coppola’s iconic trilogy. In Savoca, we visit the renowned Bar Vitelli, which houses a rich collection of film memorabilia. A leisurely stroll through Savoca leads us to the Catacombs and the Capuchin Convent, both steeped in history and mystery. Our journey continues to the hilltop village of Forza D’Agro, perched at an impressive 365 metres. This picturesque setting served as the backdrop for numerous scenes in the trilogy. As you wander the narrow lanes and historic churches, you’ll be transported to a world where the real and cinematic past intertwine, creating a truly immersive experience. The region was chosen for the film shoots due to its timeless Sicilian atmosphere. The rustic charm and historic architecture provided an ideal backdrop for the dramatic narrative of ‘The Godfather’. While Sicily, including Savoca and Forza D’Agro, has a complex history with the Mafia, today it is celebrated more for its cultural heritage and cinematic connections. Option 3 - Morning experience: Mt. Etna At 3,369 metres Mt Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe. Her constant state of irritation is monitored by vulcanologists worldwide, yet it is the people who live in her shadow who know her best. We join a local guide to scale her slopes in a 4 x 4 WD. We will drive through charming villages imbued with history and tradition before finding the winding dirt roads which take us along the edge of extinct craters where we experience the life cycle of an eruption, while we view Etna in all her glory with a deeper understanding of her eruptive power.","lat":"38.193814","lng":"15.554015"},{"title":"Day 16: Salerno","name":"Salerno","description":"The port town of Salerno plays gateway to one of Europe’s most famous coastlines; the Amalfi Coast. A magnet to both ancient and modern visitors its interspersed villages appear to almost grow from the rockface on which they are built. The dramatic cliffs and natural harbours of the Amalfi Coast have hosted holiday homes of the rich and revered throughout time. Our excursions offer a hint of the coast’s abundant past and present as we view the excavations of luxurious villas, theatres and bathhouses at Pompeii, or search the beachfront villages of the Amalfi for tantalising tales at the heart of Amalfi life. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius Known to the Neapolitans simply as ‘him’, Mount Vesuvius towers over the surrounding fertile plains at 1,281 metres. He has been quiet of late, but it was a different story in 79 BCE, when lava and ash vomited forth engulfing the city of Pompeii. Albeit a tragedy, the excavation of these extensive sites reveals treasure for travellers. Physical evidence of the city’s final dramatic moments, preserved forever amongst the volcanic ash, speak louder than words. Each tells a tale of intrigue, returned to life by the ruins and remains, of these Roman cities. Our guided tour of Pompeii’s buried city is amongst one of the most intriguing in world history. Returning to the ship for lunch, there is time to explore Salerno before we set sail in the late afternoon. Option 2 – Morning experience: The Amalfi Coast Drive Driving the Amalfi Coast is like navigating through a real-life postcard, with a delightful twist! The famously winding road twists around hairpin turns and clings to cliff edges, offering breathtaking drops and stunning views of the turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea. Begin your adventure in Salerno and hold on tight as you wind your way through charming coastal villages. Make a stop in Amalfi, the town that gives the coast its name. Explore its narrow streets, medieval architecture and vibrant piazzas, which are perfect for a leisurely stroll and a gelato break. As you continue, the road curves around the rugged coastline, leading to Positano, where colourful buildings cascade down the hillside to a sun-umbrellaed sandy beach. This drive is filled with twists, turns and spectacular vistas, making it an unforgettable journey along one of Italy’s most scenic driving routes. (Note that this route and the towns visited may be adjusted due to traffic conditions, which can be heavy on this stretch of road.) Option 3 – Full-day experience: The Amalfi Coast and the Lemon Walk A magnet for ‘privileged’ visitors the Amalfi coast is a modern-day mecca for the rich and famous. We search for signs of previous imperial guests and conquering entrepreneurs, both private and political, amongst the streets, alleys and sun-umbrellaed waterfronts of its colourful villages and shop fronted towns as we tour the Amalfi. Driving its coastal roads, we cannot help but wonder about its acres of steep terraced lemon groves. This much maligned fruit has for centuries been at the centre of all things in towns like Ravello, Sorrento and Positano. We join a local expert as they tell the ‘sweet’ story of the lemon and its place in every Italians heart. Sipped as an aperitif, sales of limoncello are second only to campari in Italy. Our guide entertains us with mythical legends and tales of intrigue and of course our stroll through the lemon groves is rewarded with a tasting of limoncello, making this the perfect Amalfi experience.","lat":"40.682441","lng":"14.768096"},{"title":"Day 17: Naples","name":"Naples","description":"We disembark at the northern edge of the Bay of Naples, in Naples itself. There’s time today to enjoy a morning ‘Your Choice’ experience, before an afternoon at leisure to explore Naples independently. Mid-afternoon, we transfer to our Naples hotel, before gathering to enjoy an evening together at a Farewell Event. Shrouded by the shadow of a brooding Mount Vesuvius, Naple’s ‘underworld’ reputation has mellowed in recent years providing the perfect culmination of our explorations. Survivors of successive imperial invasions, outbreaks of plagues and infamous natural disasters Neapolitans are well-known for their dramatic personalities. Developed by Romes elite as a series of holiday resorts and prosperous towns, the southern coastline of the Bay of Naples offers a wealth of insights into the ancient world, while the modern city of Naples is an eclectic mix of winding lanes, underground channels and glass fronted high-rises, making it a town with more than its share of tall tales. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences Option 1 – Morning experience: Napoli on a Plate Embark on a journey through time as you delve into the richness of Italy’s culinary heritage. Join us on a gastronomic expedition through Naples where the timeless traditions of the beloved pizza originated. Experience the artistry of centuries-old culinary practices as you savour two distinct varieties of pizza, immersing yourself in the gastronomic culture of Naples. Soak up the authentic charm of a local pizzeria, and indulge in one of Naples’ iconic pastries, a sweet finale to a morning steeped in the flavours of history and tradition. Option 2 – Morning experience: Naples; Yesterday – Today A city of complex themes, and one of the bedrocks of Italian culture, Naples’ immense history plays out amongst the winding alleys of its old town, and what lies beneath. We begin with a stroll through these lively streets that still follow the decumani, or ancient Roman roads, originally laid out 2,000 years ago. Underneath the Gothic church of San Lorenzo Maggiore where the city of Neapolis’ forum once lay, we encounter its main street – Decumanus Maximus. Here we see traces of the former city, as we descend underground and explore this archaeological complex, which has both Greek and Roman roots. We learn the role of the Greek Agora and the subsequent Roman Forum, in civic and commercial life during antiquity, before skipping to the 20th century. Naples was Italy’s most bombed city during World War II, and these tunnels are thought to have saved the lives of more than 200,000 people who used the tunnels as bomb shelters. Back above ground we explore the city’s political and social history, from its Greek origins as Neapolis (the new city) to modern times. We find the Castel Nuovo, the previous political centre of the city, the Palazzo Reale, which served as the royal palace during the reign of the Spanish Bourbon Kings and the stoic buildings of the city’s medieval period. With the Bay of Naples as a backdrop, Naples reveals the twists and turns in her story throughout our quest into her past. Option 3 – Morning experience: The Palace of Caserta You are forgiven if you have never heard of the Palace of Caserta, but once you have visited it you may never stop talking about it. A masterpiece of Baroque architecture, Caserta sprawls over five floors, 1,200 rooms, 11 acres of gardens, pools, fountains and cascades, and almost 300 acres of parklands. Designed according to the wishes of Charles of Bourbon III, by Luigi Vanvitelli, one of the greatest Italian architects of the 18th century, Caserta was a palace ahead of its time. Respect for nature became the palace’s calling card, drawing from trends spreading across Europe at the time. Hundreds of rare and precious plants from around the world were brought to Caserta, and still grown there today. Grand, excessive and opulent, a visit to Caserta will fill your diary with superlatives.
