After two exiting nights in Rome, you'll enjoy the following itinerary:

Day 1   Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

Walking in Rome is one of the best ways to see the city and appreciate the people, the cobbled streets and its ancient history.  Marvel at the Colosseum, Pantheon and Trevi Fountain, to name only a few of the attractions the city has to offer, find somewhere to sit and have a coffee whilst people-watching. Embark on your cruise late-afternoon.

Day 2   Day at Sea

Day 3   Mykonos, Greece

Mykonos is a gorgeous island to explore, with trendy boutiques and cosy taverns and cafes to enjoy. Why not spend some time seeing the island’s renowned windmills, which are located just south of the waterfront.

Take a glimpse into thousands of years of history during your stop at Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and see another side of Turkey.

Day 5   Santorini, Greece

This extraordinary volcanic island boasts black sand beaches and sheer limestone cliffs to explore. Why not hop on the cable car that takes you up to the capital, Fira, too. Optional activities include a motorcoach trip to the islands highest peak – Mt Profitis Illias, volcano hiking, and yoga with wine tasting.

Day 7   Naples (Pompeii), Italy
