What we will do

"A place which you never finish discovering. It would appear there is always something to discover. Rich with the most bizarre

of contrasts: every which way you turn, you glimpse picturesque, ugly, abject, magnificent, delicious and pleasant things".

Charles Dickens in 1843 described Genoa as a city which remains to be discovered, rich in history, quirks and legend.

A visit to the historic centre of Genoa begins at the Ancient Port: from here, our guide will accompany us inside the network of

characteristic alleyways, the so-called "caruggi", upon the discovery of hidden locations.

We will reflect upon the antique workshops, testimony of the traditions and best food and drink.

What we will see

Italian Riviera

Seborga

A stroll through the village

Church of San Martino and the Palazzo dei Monaci

What we will do

We leave Savona and make our way southwards along the splendid Italian Riviera, with impressive hills alternating with

characteristic village, cliffs and famous beaches.

We arrive at our destination: the Ligurian village of **Seborga””, perched on the crest of a hill, from which you can enjoy

panoramic views of the vegetation-covered mountains and beaches lapped by a turquoise sea.

We’ll stroll through the village alleyways, where the typical atmosphere of an ancient village reigns, amidst majestic houses,

small gardens and historic monuments.

What makes Seborga even more fascinating is its unusual self-proclamation as principality in the fifties, even going as far as to

elect a prince, although with merely symbolic functions.

The entire life of the village bears signs of this original status: along the streets we find cars with a special licence plate next to

the official number plate, in the shops we can purchase using “Luigini” coins issued by the principality, and the houses fly the

official, blue and white striped flag.

As we plunge into this haunting atmosphere, we cannot fail to admire the monuments in the town centre, such as the splendid

Baroque church of San Martino or the Palazzo dei Monaci which, in the 17th century, housed the mint which issued the

Luigini coins.

Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

This excursion does not include a guide.

Description

Centuries of history and suggestive settings transport us back in time to the Middle Ages as we explore two of Italy’s most handsome

medieval townships, Finalborgo and Noli.

What we will see

Finalborgo

Castel San Giovanni

Basilica of San Biagio

Convent of Santa Caterina

Noli

The Torre del Canto and the Torre del Comune

Medieval walls

Cathedral of San Paragorio

What we will do

We leave the port by coach, in the company of our tour rep, and make our way to the first stop on our journey, Finalborgo,

which is considered one of the most attractive townships in the whole of Italy. The settlement is undoubtedly medieval in

origin, although recent research suggests that it was founded several centuries earlier than was previously believed.

As we stroll through the streets of the old town, the imposing defensive mass of Castel San Giovanni and other notable

monuments such as the Basilica of San Biagio, the Convent of Santa Caterina and numerous Renaissance palazzi conjure an

almost palpable sense of history.

We leave Finalborgo for another of the Italian Riviera’s Medieval gems: the town of Noli. This gracious little settlement was

home to skilled merchants and courageous navigators who saw it become an independent maritime republic.

We explore the historic centre on foot, admiring the buildings that recount this fascinating history. There are the Torre del

Canto and the Torre del Comune, two of the “seventy-two towers of Noli”, of which but a few remain. Then there are the

surviving sections of the defensive walls that once formed an impenetrable barrier around the city, and the 12th-century

Cathedral of San Paragorio, one of the emblematic examples of Romanesque architecture in Liguria.

After crossing the French border, we will arrive in the Principality of Monaco, one of the smallest independent states in the

world, its origins and history are indelibly linked to the Grimaldi family, who have ruled here for over 700 years. More

specifically, Prince Rainier III who reigned from 1949 to 2005, strongly supported the development of the Principality. Owing

to his fairy-tale marriage to the American actress Grace Kelly and the numerous initiatives he supported, the Rainier lineage

made this tiny State one of the most frequented by international jet-setters, turning it into a place where numerous world

events are held, some of which, delightfully for charity.

Subsequently, we will have some free time to wander around the area of the Ancient Port. Passing by the former Cotton

Stores, which have now been renovated and turned into shops, bars and restaurants, we can admire Bigo, a unique building

designed by the famous Genoese architect, Renzo Piano which, together with Lanterna, is seen, by the Genoese people, as

INFORMATIONS

Description

An opportunity not to be missed to explore a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Avignon, "the city of the Popes": a step back into the

history of the church and the Papacy, tracing the splendour of the reign of 7 pontiffs who brought prosperity and prominence to

Avignon.

What we will see

Palace of the Popes

Free time for shopping and exploring the city

What we will do

We leave the port of Marseille by coach, and head for Avignon, a journey that takes about one hour. The city of Avignon is

famous for having been the seat of the Papacy from 1309 to 1377, a period known as the Avignon captivity . Pope Clement

V transferred the Papal court from Rome to Avignon, from where 7 Popes reigned until 1377 and 2 antipopes stayed on

almost until the end of the 14th century, bringing a period of prominence and prosperity to the city.

Our tour takes us to the Palace of the Popes which has been recognised in France as a historic monument since 1840, and

as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995. The building, which is both a palace and a fortress, is one of the most

extraordinary examples of Gothic architecture of the 14th century. It was built in two phases, by two popes: to the north, the

more austere Palais Vieux (Old Palace) was built during the reign of Benedict XII; the Palais Neuf (New Palace), to the south,

was built by his successor, Clement VI. Inside, the now-empty galleries, chambers and chapels give an apparent impression of

austerity. The frescoes and handwoven tapestries in the bedrooms and the Papal study however, give a better idea of the

pomp and splendour of times gone by.

Before going back to the ship, we have some free time for a walk in the streets of the centre or for shopping.

Cathedral of Notre Dame de la Garde and Church of Saint-Laurent

Le Panier quarter

Vieille Charité and Cathedral of Sainte Marie Majeure

What we will do

We leave from the left-hand side of the port and begin our tour of Marseille with a visit to the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de la

Garde which is at the highest point of the city at an altitude of 162 m above sea level, from where we can see the whole of

Marseille laid out before us.

We will then make our way to the Church of Saint-Laurent, a handsome example of Provençal Romanesque architecture, built

in pink stone from Couronne, with splendid views of the Old Port.

It also marks the beginning of the quarter known as Le Panier ("the basket"), which is one of the oldest quarters of Marseille

and the old heart of the city. It owes its name to the Le Logis du Panier inn, an old establishment dating back to the 17th

century. This part of the city is a typical Mediterranean port neighbourhood with the fronts of houses painted in a variety of

colours and narrow winding streets. Historically a favoured haunt of sailors, it is now one of Marseille's most characteristic

areas.

Following a visit to La Vieille Charité originally an almshouse for the city's poor, now home to a cultural centre and a venue for

temporary exhibitions we have the opportunity to try a local speciality, the navette (little boat), a traditional biscuit flavoured

with orange blossoms that is baked in the shape of a boat.

After a short break, close to La Vieille Charité, we pay a short visit to the Neo-Byzantine Cathedral of Saint-Marie-Majeure

also known by the locals as La Major before heading back to the port.

Places on this excursion are limited. We recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

The itinerary may be subject to change.

This excursion is not recommended for guests with mobility problems.

This excursion involves some walking. We recommend wearing appropriate footwear and comfortable clothing.

What we will do

We begin our discovery tour of Marseille by taking the shuttle bus from the port to the Church of Saint-Laurent. The little

square in front of the church offers beautiful views of the Old Port and the hills surrounding the city.

We make our way downhill from the church towards Marseille's Neo-Byzantine cathedral, known locally as La Major. After a

Vieille Charité, a building that originally served as an almshouse for the city's poor, but which is now home to a cultural centre

and a venue for temporary exhibitions. We then take another short break to sample the famous panissa, a sort of cake made

with just a few humble ingredients: chickpea flour, water and salt.

We make our way back to the Old Port, where we can either board the ship straight away, or spend a couple of hours of fee

time in the city centre.

Space is limited, so please reserve early. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended. The order of visits may vary.

We will travel back through time and discover the remains of the ancient Roman colony of Barcino, the original heart of what is now

Barcelona. Traces of its legacy still remain today in the succession of buildings and architectural structures.

What we will see

Gothic Quarter

Plaça Nova

Via Laietana

Barcelona History Museum

Plaça del Rei underground complex

What we will do

Accompanied by our guide, we will begin our walking tour of what remains of Barcino, the Roman town that was the

foundation for modern-day Barcelona. As we stroll through the city, traces of this settlement will take us back in time to over

two thousand years ago.

We will venture into the labyrinth of streets that is the Barrio Gótico or Gothic Quarter. This district was the heart of political

and religious life in the Middle Ages and, even today, its layout is still faithful to the classic Roman Cardo and Decumanus grid

structure.

In Plaça Nova, traces of the Roman settlement abound in a string of architectural delights. We can still see the two semi-

circular towers that flanked the gateway to the Decumanus road, as well as sections of the city's defence walls and the arch of

an aqueduct.

Amidst temple columns and the remains of walls that peep up every now and then, almost casually incorporated into more

modern buildings, we will walk along Via Laietana, which takes its name from the first Iberian population to settle in this region.

Built in the early 20th century, it has retained the architectural heritage of the Roman walls.

A must on our tour of the Roman remains is the Barcelona History Museum, known as MUHBA, which has preserved and

exhibits Barcelona's rich historical heritage, from its Roman origins to the modern day.

The highlight of the tour is the Plaça del Rei underground complex where we can admire the remains of an entire district of

the Roman city of Barcino, which spans over 4,000 square metres with its narrow passageways.

Places on this excursion are limited. We recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

We walk to the starting point of our bike excursion. After our safety briefing, we are handed our electric bikes and get into the

Antoni Gaudí at just 30 years of age. He continued to oversee its construction until his death and the church has yet to be

Description

Barcelona is the city where the great architect Antoni Gaudí produced his most important and famous works which today define the

look of the Catalan metropolis. We will visit four of them, all of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

What we will see

Parc Güell

Eixample district and Sagrada Familia

La Pedrera

Casa Batllò

Plaça de Catalunya and port area

What we will do

The first destination on our excursion will be the highly original Parc Güell, designed by Gaudí at the turn of the last century

and created in collaboration with his disciples.

Entering the park, we will be plunged into a surreal, picturesque setting: fairy-tale buildings, a gigantic salamander decorated

with mosaics, forests of columns and a house with spires where the artist lived for twenty years.

We will return to the coach and a short journey will take us to Eixample, the district that is home to the famous Sagrada

Familia church (tour of the exterior). This gigantic work is still under construction decades later, following the plans left by the

master architect. Our local guide will point out the most distinctive details of the façade, a demonstration of Gaudí's incredible

creativity in its own right.

Before continuing our tour, we will have some free time to stroll around the district and do a bit of shopping.

Then we will continue on towards Casa Milà, better known as La Pedrera (literally "The Quarry"), one of Gaudí's last works and

the greatest example of Catalan modernism. The building, the last civil work designed by the master architect, is a true

triumph of curved lines with undulating faces, chimneys that coil around one another and the magnificent wrought iron railings

resembling breaking waves.

The next masterpiece that we will visit on our tour is Casa Batllò, a residential building enveloped in a surreal atmosphere. We

will admire the façade and roof, covered entirely in glistening multi-coloured scales. The extravagant inventiveness of the

shapes is inspired by the legend of Saint George (the patron saint of Catalonia) who fought the dragon, alluded to in the

sinuosity of the roof, while the rows of balconies and bone-like structures symbolise the victims.

On our way back to the ship, we will pass through the commercial heart of the historic centre, the famous Plaça de Catalunya

and the port area before bringing this magical day to a close.

Places on this excursion are limited. We recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

complex lies nestled into the cliff 725 metres above sea level, offering us spectacular views.

A guided tour will lead us around this famous abbey built in the 11th century near a cave where the statue of the Black Virgin

was found in 880. The statue is known as "la Moreneta" because of its dark colouring and is still highly revered today.

The tour of the 15th-century basilica is an absolute must, and offers a setting where a strong sense of reflection and privacy

reign supreme. Guests who wish to can enter and see the wooden La Moreneta statue that lies in a chapel that is accessed

through a side entrance.

Dress code that is appropriate for the places of worship to be visited is recommended.

Time for a few, vital, safety instructions and then we’ll each be given our Segway, a fun electric vehicle, similar to a scooter, to

wander around at leisure.

Once you feel confident, we can set off to discover the city in the footsteps of Antoni Gaudí, the brilliant Catalan architect, who

immortalised Barcelona with his marvellous works.

Our Segways will glide us comfortably past his “Sagrada Familia”, the incredible Neo-Gothic church, the symbol par excellence

of Catalan art, with its slender spires and exuberant façades that will take your breath away.

We’ll continue along Barcelona's most famous shopping avenue, Passeig de Gracia, where the shop windows of major fashion

designers alternate with masterpieces of Modernist architecture.

You’ll be able to admire Casa Milà, best known by its nickname, La Pedrera. Gaudí’s most mature work, this building is a

triumph of curved lines with undulating façades, chimneys that coil around one another and the rounded wrought iron railings.

A little further on stands Casa Batlló, with its façade and roof covered entirely in glistening, multi-coloured scales.

Barcelona is also home to the works of Gaudí’s distinguished colleagues belonging to the Modernist movement, including

Casa Fuster, the final work of Domènech i Montaner, which features may of the architect’s characteristic elements, such as

floral decorations or trefoil windows.

Last of all, we pass opposite La Monumental, Barcelona’s, if not Spain’s, most famous plaza de toros, specially designed for the

corrida.

Description

Barcelona is Gaudí's city: he produced some of his greatest masterpieces there which we will discover one by one and be amazed by

their charm.

What we will see

Sagrada Familia: Nativity façade and Passion façade, church interior, construction works

Passeig de Gràcia

Casa Batllò (inside visit)

La Pedrera (photo stop)

What we will do

The first stop on our excursion is the Sagrada Familia, the iconic symbol of the city of Barcelona, a destination for visitors from

all over the world, believed by many to be one of the most extraordinary man-made monuments in the world.

It is a majestic Neo-Gothic church inspired by the great medieval cathedrals and built in a Modernist style: the Catalan version

of Art Nouveau.

It was the work of talented architect Antoni Gaudí, who designed it at the age of just 30 and dedicated the rest of his life to

completing it. Work began on the church in 1882 and is still ongoing, following the designer's plans. This will make our visit

even more fascinating as we will witness the creation of one of the greatest architectural masterpieces in the world.

Our guide will show us two of the façades that have already been completed: the Nativity façade and the Passion façade. Then

we will enter the church where expert artisans are working on this constantly evolving monument.

Then we will continue on towards Passeig de Gràcia, the most fashionable avenue in the city with its charming, modern

buildings like Casa Batllò, another of skilful Gaudí's masterpieces.

Much more than just a building, Casa Batllò holds an entire world of contemporary art, architecture and design, offering

visitors a unique, surreal experience. The extravagant inventiveness of the shapes is inspired by the legend of Saint George

(the patron saint of Catalonia) who fought the dragon, alluded to in the multi-coloured sinuosity of the roof, while the rows of

balconies and bone-like structures symbolise the victims.

We will end our tour admiring Casa Milà, better known as La Pedrera (tour of the exterior), Gaudí's last work. The building is a

true triumph of curved lines with undulating faces, chimneys that coil around one another and the magnificent wrought iron

railings resembling breaking waves.

Places on this excursion are limited. We recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.

What we will do

Our helicopter excursion begins from Son Bonet Aerodrome, the international airport in Palma de Majorca.

As we take off, an enthralling *aerial view of the city of Palma unfolds beneath us, to reveal its most important monuments,

including the Gothic cathedral of Santa Maria, commonly known as “la Seu”, famous for its rose window and its immense size.

It is approximately 120 metres long, 70 m wide, and covers a surface area of 6,600 m². Its 44 metre-high vaults are some of

the highest in the world and make it the second highest Gothic cathedral. The Cathedral was begun in 1230 on the site of the

original main mosque and it holds the Royal Chapel, which houses the tombs of King James II and King James III. The west

wall of the cathedral was seriously damaged in an earthquake in 1851. In the 20th century, la Seu changed its appearance

under the hands of the Modernist Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí, who added the altar canopy.

We’ll also get a good view of the port of Palma and the enormous cruise ships, which dock in Majorca during their

Mediterranean tours.

As we continue to fly over the area, we get a glimpse of Bellver Castle. Originally built as a military fortress to protect the

island, the castle is one of the symbols of the city and dominates the entire bay below. It is about 3 kilometres from the

historic centre of Palma and over the centuries has been put to various uses. King James II built it as a royal residence. In the

19th century, it became a coin mint.

It has a rare circular structure for a castle in Europe, three watch towers and a four-storey keep. Inside the castle is a circular

parade ground on two floors and a courtyard built over a storage tank. There is a chapel on the second floor.

Our trip continues until we are flying over the area of Son Vida, a luxurious residential area with golf courses, famous hotels

and dream villas, as well as elegant shops and clubs where celebrities can often be spotted.

Properties in this area can even top EUR 2 million in value.

Our helicopter tour continues towards the spectacular geography of the landscape of Serra de Tramontana, which was

awarded Word Heritage Site status by the UN in 2011.

Serra de Tramontana stretches for 90 km. It covers 30% of the territory of Majorca and boasts numerous peaks of over

1000 metres.

During our return journey towards the airport of Son Bonet Aerodrome, we can admire the village of Valldemossa to the

south. This typical, tiny village lies on the north coast and has a stupendous view over the sea. Chopin and the writer George

Sand lived for a long time in this romantic corner of Spain and their house is open to visitors. At the time, George Sand wrote

a book (“A Winter in Majorca”) set against the background of this lovely little village and in the summer months each year it

holds a festival dedicated to Chopin.

This excursion depends strictly on the weather conditions.

In the event of inclement weather the tour may be cancelled at short notice on safety grounds.

The excursion is not suitable for guests with restricted mobility.

We venture into the old city as far as Ballarò market, where we admire displays of juicy fruit, spices and fresh fish as our ears

fill with expressions in the local dialect.

We then seat in a typical local trattoria to enjoy the famous sarde a beccafico (stuffed sardines), a tasty dish that takes us

straight to the heart of the Sicilian cuisine.

Our itinerary continues to see some of the city's sights: we walk by the Cathedral, a charming combination of shapes and

styles, cross the Capo market famous for its size and folklore, and admire Teatro Massimo, the largest opera theatre in Italy.

We then make one last stop at the most famous café in Palermo where we try a sublime cannolo, the king of Sicilian

traditional desserts and a perfect end to our excursion dedicated to food.

What we will do

We leave Civitavecchia by coach for Rome where we start our day in the Eternal City admiring some of its most famous

monuments and squares: accompanied by an expert guide, we drive past Castel Sant'Angelo, originally built as a mausoleum,

and used over the centuries as a Papal residence, law courts, a fortress and also a prison, and along the*Via della

Conciliazione* that links Italy with the Vatican State.

We go over the thin strip of travertine marble that is the line of demarcation between the two states and we find ourselves in

St. Peter's Square, the universal centre of Christianity, where we have some free time to take pictures and admire

architectural masterpieces such as Bernini's Colonnade and St. Peter's Basilica.

The tour proceeds to the Trevi Fountain, one of the most famous fountains in the world. Here we are free to explore the area,

do some shopping and take advantage of the break to enjoy some wonderful Italian cuisine for lunch in one of the many local

restaurants and trattorie.

In the afternoon our guide takes us on a panoramic tour by coach dedicated to the treasures of ancient Rome.

We drive past the Colosseum, one of the seven wonders of the modern world, the amphitheatre that is a symbol of the

greatness of Rome caput mundi, the Circus Maximus where horse-drawn chariot races were held, and the Pyramid of Cestius

, an Egyptian style funerary monument built in the 1st century BC.

The excursion ends with our return to Civitavecchia with the memory of an unforgettable day.

This tour includes a basket lunch selected by our ship staff.
