Itinerary

Day by Day Summary and Map

Day 1 - Saturday - Sep 3, 2022

Athens (Port of Piraeus), Greece

Step onboard in Athens, where you will have an entire day to explore this ancient city. Perhaps you will see the Hellenic Parliament, Constitution Square, the Panathenaic Stadium, the Temple of Zeus, or the iconic Acropolis. Explore the bustling Plaka District at the base of the Acropolis. Tonight we set sail for Olympia.

Day 2 - Sunday - Sep 4, 2022

Katakolon (Olympia), Greece

Visit the quaint Greek port of Katakolon, huddled around a pretty little harbor dotted with colorful fishing boats. During your visit, venture into the fertile valleys of the western Peloponnese to the legendary city of Olympia, the classical birthplace of the modern-day Olympic Games on the slopes of Mt. Kronos. Walk among the ancient city's ruins with an expert guide and historian, admiring the remains of temples, the Palaestra, or wrestling school, and the Gymnasium. You will gain insight into the very first Olympic Games at the fascinating museum.

Day 3 - Monday - Sep 5, 2022

Corfu, Greece

Corfu has a rich history shaped by conquerors and by royalty seeking tranquility. Corfu's Old Town and Fortress-fashioned by the once powerful Venetian Republic-comprise a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its narrow warrens lead to one of Europe's largest public squares and a lovely promenade once exclusively reserved for the local aristocracy. Everywhere, magnificent coastal views unfold and scenic byways lead to history-rich enclaves, from the archaeological site of Paleopolis and the stunning Vlacherna Monastery to a former Greek royal villa.

Day 4 - Tuesday - Sep 6, 2022

Kotor, Montenegro

Spend the day traversing the medieval streets of this historic Montenegro town with a walking tour. Pass by Venetian walls constructed in 1420 en route to the Cathedral of St. Tryphon, built in 1166. Notice its mismatched towers, the result of an earthquake and a budget too small to rebuild properly. Included on this tour is a visit to the Maritime Museum, which documents Kotor's heritage. As an option, venture to the small towns of Budva and Sveti Stefan, the latter once a hideaway for the rich and famous.

Day 5 - Wednesday - Sep 7, 2022

Dubrovnik, Croatia

Dubrovnik is a historic jewel, with its spectacular Adriatic setting, 12th-century medieval streets, and incredibly preserved structures. So stunning is its Old Town, the playwright George Bernard Shaw famously called it "paradise on Earth". It is all spectacularly surrounded by a towering medieval wall. Inside, the ancient city's Stradun is lined with authentic stone houses. The peaceful 14th-century Franciscan Monastery, housing the world's oldest working pharmacy and fine collection of Renaissance paintings, provide insight into the ages.

Day 6 - Thursday - Sep 8, 2022

Split, Croatia

Constructed around the ancient Roman Palace of Emperor Diocletian, Split is one of Croatia's oldest cities. Its lovely promenade commands majestic views over a bay that opens on the Adriatic Sea. Despite archaeological evidence revealing Split's Greek origins in the 6th century BC, the city is traditionally considered just over 1,700 years old-counting from the construction of the palace. Its incredibly preserved remains have been seamlessly assimilated into the modern city. An ethnographic museum occupies rooms at the palace's heart. Shops line the passageways of the ancient basement. Diocletian's ancient mausoleum is now a stunning cathedral. Even the king's old bedroom is part of a luxury hotel. It is a legacy that would have made the emperor proud.

Day 7 - Friday - Sep 9, 2022

Venice, Italy

Watch the sunlight dapple on the water as we ease our way through the archipelago. You can enjoy a panoramic boat ride towards the magnificent St. Mark's Square on your included tour, and with your guide, you will visit the glorious Doge's Palace, make your way across the fabled Bridge of Sighs, and on to Saint Mark's Basilica. Or, take a boat to Murano to see glassmakers at work in their centuries-old tradition, with a stop to visit historic San Giorgio Maggiore island. In the evening, enjoy a fine restaurant, the vibrant nightlife, and perhaps even a romantic evening gondola ride along the Grand Canal as we remain in port until midnight.

Day 8 - Saturday - Sep 10, 2022

Fusina Port, Italy

The Venetian Republic ruled Adriatic waves for a millennium. During the 8th century as the Roman Empire began its decline, many Europeans fled to Venice. Merchants put their skills to use, and the city-state was soon thriving. Along the city's Grand Canal, more than 50 palazzi line its banks featuring buildings influenced by Byzantine and Islamic architecture, reflecting Venice's powerful trading network. The first vaporetto traversed the Grand Canal in 1881; alongside the gondolas, these iconic Venetian water buses are at the heart of Venice's transport network. After breakfast, disembark your ship and journey home.
