PROVENCE - MARSEILLE
The first whispers of France arrive in Provence, where lavender fields meet the sea and time slows to a luxurious drift. In Marseille, the air is thick with salt and spice, the harbor alive with laughter and the promise of discovery. Cafés spill onto cobblestone streets, and the golden light turns every moment into a painting.
Oct 5, 2027
NICE - MONACO (VILLEFRANCE)
Morning light shimmers across the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, turning the water to liquid sapphire. Pastel villas climb the hillsides, bougainvillea spills from balconies, and the air is rich with salt and citrus—the Riviera at its most enchanting. In Nice, jasmine drifts on the breeze as sunbathers sip rosé beneath striped umbrellas, and Monaco gleams ahead, a jewel of luxury carved into the cliffs.

FLORENCE - PISA (LIVORNO)
The voyage glides eastward to Livorno, gateway to Tuscany’s treasures.

Southward the ship sails, cutting through sapphire waters toward Sicily, where Messina rises between sea and sky. The coastline unfolds in rugged splendor—craggy cliffs, sunlit villages, and the distant silhouette of Mount Etna breathing softly against the horizon. Here, the island’s volcanic heart beats beneath every stone and vineyard, its energy felt in the warmth of the people and the rhythm of the land. Sicily calls with a quiet power—ancient, untamed, and endlessly captivating.
Oct 9, 2027
SALENO - AMALFI COAST
The air is warm and sweet, laced with the scent of citrus and the whisper of the sea. Ahead lies Salerno, the radiant gateway to the Amalfi Coast—a place so stunning it feels painted by the gods. The ship glides past pastel villages that cling to cliffs like jewels, their terracotta rooftops glowing in the sun. Terraced lemon groves spill down toward coves of impossible turquoise, while winding roads carve along the cliffs, tracing the very edge of paradise.
