In Toulon, you can discover the harmonious combination of nature, culture and way of life that lends the city its charm. Wines, cheeses and Mediterranean figs: it would be a shame not to stop at the numerous restaurants and cafés to sample the regional cuisine.

The Sea of Sardinia measures up to Caribbean standards. The same dream beaches, the same crystal clear water. Anyone who has been to Olbia in Costa Smeralda knows this. The port of Olbia is situated on the Costa Smeralda, considered one of the most beautiful coasts of Sardinia and of the whole Mediterranean. During the stopover in Olbia you can visit Roman ruins, such as the aqueduct, baths, the basilica of San Simplicio, but also the Holy wells of Sa Tesa, the archaeological site of the Riu Milinu or the Giant’s Grave of Su Mont’e s’Abe, symbols of Nuragic culture. Lovers of nature, divers and beautiful beaches will be enchanted by the islands of Tavolara and Molara.

Day 6 - Rome

Arrive: Sat 08 August 2026 at 08:00 / Depart: Sat 08 August 2026

Your gateway to the Eternal City, Civitavecchia has served as Rome's seaport since the 13th century. The port has a long and venerable history. The emperor Trajan built a pleasure villa near the modern city, while Bernini and Michelangelo designed the harbor fortifications. Yet the Eternal City eternally beckons. The ancient capital of the Western World and the center of Christianity for nearly 2,000 years, Rome provides an inexhaustible feast. Visit the ruins of the Forum, view the splendors of the Sistine Chapel, or climb the Spanish Steps, once the heart of Rome's Bohemian Quarter. Rome has been a magnet luring the world's greatest artists, architects, and philosophers since the days of the Caesars.

Day 7 - Savona

Arrive: Sun 09 August 2026 at 08:30 / Depart: Sun 09 August 2026

Above the port of Savona, the Priamar Fortress greets every departure and arrival of the Costa ships sailing in the Mediterranean. Genoa and its aquarium are nearby. The port of Savona, which you can explore during your cruise in Italy, is one of the prettiest of the Italian Riviera. The lovely climate, summers that are never to hot, mild winters and the exceptional beauty of the sea near the town makes Savona an excellent base to set out to explore Liguria. Savona is notable for the Priamar Fortress, which has dominated the town since the 16th century, and also for its historic centre where you can visit Savona Cathedral. A stop in Savona can also be an opportunity to visit the nearby city of Genoa and its narrow, picturesque streets, known as “caruggi”.

Day 8 - Marseille, France

Arrive: Mon 10 August 2026 / Depart: Mon 10 August 2026

A pleasant thing to do is simply sit down at one of the cafes overlooking the port of Marseilles and, sipping a Pastis, observe the landscape and the people who inhabit it. Also called the Porpoise City, Marseille is France’s sunniest town, charming with its gullies where you can swim, its history and culture and restaurants with cosmopolitan cuisine. You cannot leave without having first toured on the “Cours Julien”, the street for shopping. The port of Marseille is perhaps a typical tourist destination, but it deserves to be visited for the ferry that leaves from the Town Hall and the old church, which replaced a Templar building.
