Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Piraeus
Depart 17:00
The port that launched Athenian democracy's naval supremacy at the Battle of Salamis, Piraeus remains Greece's maritime heartbeat — and the most convenient gateway to both the Acropolis and the Aegean island chains. Dine on grilled sea bream at a Mikrolimano harbourside taverna, visit the extraordinary bronze Piraeus Apollo, and set sail for Hydra or Santorini by afternoon. Late April through June and September offer the Aegean at its most golden and uncrowded.
Day 2
Day 2
Milos
Arrive 08:00Depart 17:00
Milos, a captivating volcanic island in the Aegean Sea, is renowned for its stunning landscapes, rich history, and delectable local cuisine. Must-do experiences include savoring traditional dishes like "pitarakia" and exploring the nearby ruins of Delos. The best season to visit is from late spring to early autumn when the weather is warm, and the island is alive with vibrant local culture.
Day 3
Day 3
Katakolon
Arrive 07:00Depart 17:00
Katakolon is the unassuming port that holds an extraordinary secret: just fourteen kilometres inland lies ancient Olympia, birthplace of the Olympic Games and one of the most sacred sites in the ancient world. The Archaeological Museum of Olympia — housing the breathtaking sculptures from the Temple of Zeus — ranks among Greece's finest, while walking the original stadium still sends a current of wonder through even the most seasoned traveller. The village itself charms with whitewashed tavernas and a relaxed pace that feels authentically Greek. Katakolon is best visited April through October; late spring and early autumn offer ideal temperatures for the Olympia excursion.
Day 4
Day 4
Catania
Arrive 11:00Depart 20:00
Catania is Sicily's dramatic second city, built from the black volcanic stone of Mount Etna and layered with Greek, Roman, and baroque heritage dating to 729 BC. Visitors should not miss the riotous Pescheria fish market and a tasting of authentic pasta alla Norma, followed by an excursion to the summit of Etna for views stretching to the Aeolian Islands. The best months to visit are April through June and September through October, when mild temperatures and thinner crowds allow the city's baroque streetscapes and extraordinary cuisine to be savored at a leisurely, unhurried pace.
Day 5
Day 5
Valletta
Arrive 07:00Depart 17:00
Valletta, Europe's smallest capital, is a fortress city of exceptional grandeur raised from bare limestone in just fifteen years after the Knights of St. John repelled the great Ottoman siege of 1565 — its rigid Renaissance grid of sun-drenched streets concealing a density of baroque palaces, gilded oratories, and subterranean World War II shelters unrivaled anywhere in the Mediterranean. The Grand Harbour, framed by golden bastions plunging into startlingly blue water, offers one of the most dramatically photogenic arrivals in the world for arriving vessels. Spring and autumn deliver the most comfortable temperatures for exploring this UNESCO-listed gem.
Day 6
Day 6
Palermo
Arrive 10:00Depart 20:00
Palermo is the Mediterranean's most intoxicating crossroads of civilisations — Arab arches meet Byzantine gold mosaics beneath Norman royal chapels in the extraordinary Palatine Chapel, a monument to 12th-century multicultural brilliance that is Sicily's single greatest work of art. The Ballarò and Capo street markets, among southern Italy's most atmospheric, tumble through the ancient city in a sensory barrage of swordfish, blood oranges, jasmine, and street food improvised across centuries. Do not leave without tasting arancini and sfincione, Sicily's gloriously thick street pizza. Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–October) offer the ideal climate — warm enough for the sea, cool enough for extended walking.
Day 7
Day 7
Salerno
Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00
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.
Day 8
Day 8
Civitavecchia
Arrive 07:00
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.
