This cruise showcases some of Europe’s most charming and underrated coastal towns and islands. Salt-licked Ponza is the first port of call, blissfully untouched by mass tourism and offering an authentic taste of Italian island life. Next is Salerno, boasting all the picturesque charm of the Amalfi Coast without the crowds, before arriving in Sicily, where the gently smoking silhouette of Mount Etna dominates the landscape. In Messina, don't miss the 12-minute rendition of Ave Maria performed by the Duomo's bell tower clock, the largest mechanical and astronomical clock in the world. Continue along the coast to Syracuse, renowned for its remarkable Greek and Roman ruins. Enjoy a relaxing day at sea while crossing to Greece, where Zakynthos delights with crystal-clear waters and the famous Navagio Beach, home to its striking shipwreck. Chania, on Crete, captivates with its 14th-century Venetian harbour, while car-free Spetses charms with grand 200-year-old captains' mansions, fragrant jasmine-filled gardens and working shipyards where traditional craftsmanship can still be observed. The journey concludes in Piraeus, gateway to the historic treasures and vibrant culture of Athens.
