Seabourn

Daily Itinerary

1. Day 1

   Civitavecchia, Rome

   Depart 17:00

   Italy

   

   Rome's ancient maritime gateway since the Emperor Trajan commissioned its harbour in 106 AD, Civitavecchia is the natural prologue to the Eternal City — just seventy minutes southeast by express rail. The port's Renaissance fortress, designed in part by Michelangelo, anchors a working waterfront that has welcomed travellers for millennia. Beyond Rome's unmissable monuments, consider an afternoon in the Civitavecchia thermal baths, drawing on mineral waters prized since antiquity. Spring and autumn offer the ideal balance of mild weather and manageable crowds for exploring the capital's layered history.

2. Day 2

   Bonifacio

   Arrive 07:00Depart 17:00

   France

   

   Bonifacio is a dramatically cliff-perched medieval citadel at Corsica's southern tip, where Genoese ramparts tower above a fjord-like natural harbour in the turquoise Strait of Bonifacio. Visitors should descend the vertiginous Escalier du Roi d'Aragon carved into the limestone cliffs and take a boat excursion to the pristine Lavezzi archipelago nature reserve for world-class snorkelling among sculpted granite formations. The ideal window is June or September, when the Mediterranean light is at its most luminous and the narrow streets of the haute ville remain blissfully uncrowded.

3. Day 3

   Cagliari

   Arrive 08:00Depart 17:00

   Italy

   

   Cagliari, Sardinia's sun-drenched capital overlooking the Gulf of Angels, has absorbed three thousand years of Phoenician, Carthaginian, Roman, Pisan, and Spanish ambitions into a layered and deeply compelling Mediterranean city — where the flamingo-fringed salt lagoons stretching to the city's western edge create one of Europe's most surreal urban vistas. The Castello quarter's medieval ramparts enclose a cathedral, Pisan towers, and panoramic terraces that survey the entire city and coastline, while the Marina district below offers some of the finest bottarga pasta and fresh tuna in Italy. Visit May through September for beach perfection; the prehistoric Nuraghe Su Nuraxi at Barumini, a UNESCO Wonder, is an hour's drive north.

4. Day 4

   Trapani (Sicily)

   Arrive 08:00Depart 17:00

   Italy

   

   Trapani is western Sicily's sickle-shaped port city where ancient salt flats, cloud-wrapped medieval Erice, and the crystal-clear Egadi Islands converge at the Mediterranean's cultural crossroads. Visit April through October via Seabourn or Windstar for cable-car ascents to Norman-era pastry shops, sunset salt-flat reflections, and the Arab-influenced seafood couscous that distinguishes this coast from anywhere else in Italy.

5. Day 5

   Valletta, Malta

   Arrive 09:00Depart 23:00

   Malta

   

   Valletta, the golden fortress capital of Malta, was hewn from a limestone peninsula in defiant haste after the Knights of Saint John — warrior monks of extraordinary valor — repulsed an overwhelming Ottoman assault in 1565. Its grid of steep baroque streets is dense with Caravaggio masterworks in the Co-Cathedral of St. John, shaded piazzas alive with café society, and bastions commanding breathtaking views over the Grand Harbour's legendary twin forts. The mild Mediterranean climate welcomes visitors year-round, though spring and autumn offer the most pleasurable temperatures for unhurried exploration of this compact UNESCO World Heritage capital.

6. Day 6

   Mgarr

   Arrive 07:00Depart 15:00

   Malta

   

   Mġarr is the harbor gateway to Gozo, Malta's greener sister island, home to the Ġgantija Temples—among the oldest free-standing structures on Earth, predating the pyramids—and the medieval Citadella fortress. Must-dos include visiting the 5,600-year-old temples, diving at Dwejra's dramatic coastline, and tasting fresh ġbejna cheese and rabbit stew. April through June and September through November offer ideal mild temperatures.

7. Day 7

   Burg

   Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00

   Germany

   

   Burg, Germany is a distinctive port city where deep cultural heritage meets authentic local atmosphere, featured on itineraries by CroisiEurope. Must-do experiences include walking the historic center to experience the layered architectural heritage, and seeking out the regional culinary traditions at a locally favored establishment away from the port area. The optimal time to visit is June through August, when summer months bring the warmest temperatures and longest days.

8. Day 8

   At Sea

   

9. Day 9

   Mahon

   Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00

   Spain

   

   Mahón commands one of the Mediterranean's deepest natural harbours, a fjord-like inlet on Menorca that captivated British admirals, Phoenician traders, and Roman generals in turn — its Georgian townhouses and gin distilleries speaking eloquently to centuries of contested heritage. Explore the clifftop old town's baroque Santa María church with its 3,200-pipe organ, then cross the water to the imposing fortress of La Mola for sweeping harbour views. The island's prized caldereta de langosta, a slow-simmered lobster stew, is best savoured at the fishing village of Fornells. Visit between May and June or September and October for warmth without the summer crowds.

10. Day 10

    Palma de Mallorca

    Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00

    Spain

    

    Palma de Mallorca announces itself with one of the most spectacular Gothic cathedrals in the world — La Seu, its honey-coloured sandstone buttresses rising directly from the bay, its interior modified by Antoni Gaudí and illuminated by the world's largest Gothic rose window. The old town behind it is a quarter of Arab baths, Renaissance palaces converted into boutique hotels, and the Passeig del Born — a plane-tree-shaded promenade where Balearic life conducts itself with unhurried grace. The local ensaïmada pastry and fresh sobrasada sausage from the island's black pigs are essential breakfast rituals. Visit May, June, or September: warm, brilliant, and measurably calmer than the July–August peak.

11. Day 11

    Salerno

    Arrive 07:00Depart 17:00

    Italy

    

    Salerno is a historic Campanian port city nestled between the Amalfi Coast and Cilento National Park, home to Europe's first medieval medical school and a magnificent Romanesque cathedral with Byzantine bronze doors. Visitors should not miss the Lungomare Trieste promenade at sunset and a plate of hand-rolled scialatielli ai frutti di mare in the atmospheric old town. The mild Mediterranean climate makes Salerno enchanting year-round, though late spring through early autumn offers the most luminous light and the fullest expression of its coastal character.
