Detailed Itinerary

Split, Croatia

TUE, MAY 12 • 00:00 - 23:00

Bathing in the Dalmatian Coast's generous sunshine, and overlooking sparkling, island-studded waters, Split is a city of romantic beauty, built around an extraordinary - still beating - historical heart. The setting may be spectacular, but it's the Diocletian's Palace - a Roman remain of incredible scale and detail that is truly bewitching. While immensely historic, Split hasn't been afraid to move with the times, and the stone walls encasing the streets are alive with buzzy bars and quiet nooks, where bottles of red wine are uncorked and delicious meals devoured. With a natural backdrop of dramatic limestone mountains, and Croatia's trademark scenic wonders all around, Split is a true heavyweight of the Adriatic. To enter Split's Diocletian's Palace is to step into a beautiful time warp. Head first to the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, where a hollow bell tower rockets up, puncturing the sky. The palace's cellars can shelter you from a little of the heat and give space for everything from wine festivals to souvenir stalls. The perfume of lavender hangs heavy wherever you walk in the old town, where tucked shops offer artisan chocolates, dried figs, and freshly ground coffees. The expansive seafront promenade is all palm trees, buzzing bars, and eateries. Further out you'll find the peace of Marion Hill - where you can climb to some of the best views in town. Or, take the far less exerting wander to Sustipan cemetery's breathtaking panorama of sea, city, and distant islands. Trips to island paradises like Hvar and Brac are tempting, as are longer excursions to sites like Krka National Park's Waterfalls - where wide terraces of frothing water thunder into cooling, swimmable splash pools below. Nearby Trogir is another UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering a cozier, no less charming old town, and historic port.

Hvar, Croatia

WED, MAY 13 • 08:00 - 20:00

One of the most popular of the island escapes sprinkled across the turquoise Adriatic, Hvar is a glorious idyll of hidden coves, electric blue waters, and quietly contented port towns. In recent years, it’s gathered something of a reputation as a party island - mainly earned from Hvar Town’s nocturnal exuberances and the transient day-tripping yachts that drop by. Soak up the energy, exuberance, and fine dining, or sidestep the hedonism to explore a richly refined, rural, and historic island – utterly spoiled with sunshine, and hidden beaches, which dazzle with colorful intensity. Bike rides along long sweeping coastal paths, boat journeys from pretty harbors, walks through fields of purple lavender - it’s all waiting for you on heavenly Hvar. Relish the sunshine and explore deserted, idyllic inlets, before sharing strong espressos in quiet harbor towns, surrounded by welcoming, sun-wrinkled locals. There’s also rich Medieval history – the sleepy town of Stari Grad is said to be Croatia’s oldest, dating back to 384 BC. Elsewhere, Jelsa is a postcard-perfect place – settle in for a bite to eat, with nothing but the sound of harbor waters lapping and sandpaper scraping boat hulls for company. You can walk to look out over glorious views across to Brac, sometimes watching on as thunderstorms rage and flash, an eternity away over the mainland’s crumpled mountains. You’re also just a short ferry ride from the incredible Golden Horn - an evocative spike of brilliant sand that juts out evocatively into the cobalt-blue sea.

Kotor, Montenegro

THU, MAY 14 • 08:00 - 20:00

Embedded into the slopes of the steep Lovćen mountain, and overlooking the deep blue Adriatic, the fortified town of Kotor boasts a spectacular, imposing staging that few can match. Squeezing in through the tight Bay of Kotor is a daunting and impressive approach, as you arrive via one of Europe's most stunning waterways. A pearl of Montenegro and the Adriatic, Kotor's warren-like streets drip with history and authenticity. Under Venetian influence for four centuries, the city's UNESCO World Heritage Site old town invites you to wander amid atmospheric stone-clad streets, overlooked by a sea of terracotta roofs and the double towers of the cathedral. Protected by thick stone walls - and the mountains behind - Kotor draws comparisons with another fortified Adriatic wonder in Dubrovnik. Many favor Kotor for its compact layout, smaller crowds, and authenticity, however - having been spared from shelling during Yugoslavia's breakup. The tightknit streets here are patrolled by a slinking population of feline residents, who were adopted as the town's mascots, after being left behind by transient trader ships. Learn of the city's extensive heritage on the waves, in the dedicated maritime museum that is contained within Grgurina Palace. Pick your way through tight alleys of workshops and studios, walking below fresh laundry strung from windows, before settling into shiny, paved piazzas for an afternoon coffee or seafood meal. If you're up for an aerobic challenge, tackle the 1,350 steps up the steep walls to St. John's fortress. The views over the gorgeous bay make the arduous slog worth it, as you rise past the city's eye-catching 15th-century church bell tower.

Bari, Italy

FRI, MAY 15 • 08:00 - 23:30

Welcoming ferries from across the Adriatic and serving as the gateway to Puglia – Bari is a historic port town that invites you on a journey through everyday life in Italy’s unpretentious south. Explore further afield to immerse yourself in Puglia’s beauty and cultural wonders - or simply soak up the atmosphere roaming the crooked streets of Bari’s old town - Bari Vecchia - where matriarchs roll out sheets of pasta in open doorways, footballs rattle along dusty streets, and sun-wrinkled old men lay out hands of cards. The photogenic old town’s streets are crowned by the chalky white Cattedrale di San Sabino, where vaulted archways, pretty mosaics, and a large rose window await. Wander along the ruler-straight Lungomare Promenade to breathe in fresh salty air and look up at the slowly twirling Ferris wheel - take a ride for some of the best views out over Bari’s waterfront. Feeling hungry? Enjoy some local cucina povera - cooking of the poor – deeply traditional food that is simple and rich in elemental flavors. Warm focaccia bread, pasted with fruity local olive oil, and ear-shaped orecchiette pasta tangled with sun-gorged cherry tomatoes and creamy ricotta cheese, are all on the menu. Puglia’s whitewashed ancient villages, stunning beaches, and laid-back, down-to-earth approach to life means you’ll most likely want to explore further than just Bari. Highlights include Lecce’s grand baroque architecture and the conical roofs of the fairy-tale trulli houses of Alberobello. Powdery white sand beaches await at Salento - punctuated by arching rock formations. The incredible cave dwellings of Matera – 2019’s European Capital of Culture - are also easily within your grasp, as is Polignano a Mare’s spectacularly scenic narrow wedge of urban beach. Surrounded on three sides by steep terraces of rock, and full of snorkelers admiring the sights below the crystal-clear water, it’s a truly stunning place to bathe in the glow of the Italian sun.

Day at sea

SAT, MAY 16 • 00:00 - 00:00

Days at sea are the perfect opportunity to relax, unwind, and catch up with what you've been meaning to do. So whether that is going to the gym, visiting the spa, whale-watching, catching up on your reading, or simply topping up your tan, these blue sea days are the perfect balance to busy days spent exploring shoreside.

Siracusa (Sicily), Italy

SUN, MAY 17 • 08:00 - 23:00

Honey-colored Siracusa is a staggering UNESCO World Heritage Site and an extraordinary Sicilian city of immense ancient history. The modern population is a fraction of what it was at the city's heyday around 400 BC, when Athens's might was successfully challenged and faced down, reinforcing the city's incredible power and status. Siracusa's historical nucleus waits to be discovered on the compact islet of Ortygia. The city was founded here, but grew over time, spreading across to the mainland. A small channel separates the two, which is now spanned by twin bridges. Wander the atmospheric streets of this time warp, to reach the shining elegance of Piazza Duomo. The Baroque cathedral rises like a giant sandcastle, and you can settle opposite to cradle a glass of wine and enjoy the view over the immaculate square - people watching before the glorious baroque facade. Dig deep into its history at the mainland's archaeological park. Here you can wander between the remains of a Greek theater, constructed in the 5th century BC, and now used as a grandiose, atmospheric venue for events and performances. You'll also encounter a Roman Amphitheater - where gladiators battled brutally, and the spectacular ear-shaped cave, which is famed for its extraordinary, secret-revealing acoustics. It was given its name - the Ear of Dionysius - by Caravaggio. Visit the legendary Fonte Arethusa, or lose yourself in the Ortygia Market - you'll find everything here, from fresh fish to spices and local bottles of wine. Look out for a flavor-filled jar of real Sicilian u strattu - an intense tomato paste that is the secret ingredient to many Sicilian recipes. The local ingredients are imbued with flavor by this volcanic land's fertile soils and the firepower of Europe's most active volcano Mount Etna, waits just to the north.

Valletta, Malta

MON, MAY 18 • 08:00 - 17:00

Perched high on the imposing Sciberras Peninsula, Valletta immediately presents its massive, protective walls and vertical bastions to visitors arriving by sea. Rising to 47 metres in places, the fortifications protect lavish palaces, grand domes and illustrious gardens. Built by the Knights of St John on the narrow peninsular, Valletta is a compact, richly historical treasure trove of Baroque wonders. Ascend to reach the restful, flower-filled Upper Barrakka Gardens, where cannons fire and boom in salute at noon each day, sending echoing cracks of noise out across the waves below. Recognised as 2018’s European Capital of Culture, Valletta is a fascinating and dense haven of history and intrigue. A busy, bustling capital, the breathtaking St John’s Cathedral - commissioned in 1572 - is almost concealed among its narrow streets. The relatively modest exterior is counterpointed by a staggeringly opulent, gold-leaf bathed interior, containing a Caravaggio masterpiece - the shadowy vision of the Beheading of St John. Cinematic and magnificent, Valletta has served as a filming location for Game of Thrones - but real epic history abounds on this rocky isle too. From the prehistoric and megalithic sites of the Hypogeum of Paola and Tarxien, to the fascinating War Museum at Fort St Elmo. Mdina also waits nearby, and the former medieval capital is a striking contrast to the island’s main city. Cars are barred from its streets, and it offers endlessly atmospheric old-time wanders. With a strategic positioning in the Mediterranean, Malta is a jewel that many have wrestled for over the centuries. Independence from Britain was finally achieved in 1964, but the close allegiance remains evident, with English recognised as an official language, cars driving on the left, and red post boxes and telephone gleaming in Malta’s sunshine.

Trapani, Sicily, Italy

TUE, MAY 19 • 08:00 - 21:00

Surrounded by glowing turquoise waters and rugged coastline, Trapani invites you to explore western Sicily's ruins, intense flavors, and sun-soaked leisure pursuits. Built on salt and tuna exports, Trapani is experiencing a renaissance, having been lovingly spruced up as a sailing capital, and an international airport bringing in visitors from far and wide. The town looks out over the Egadi Islands, gazing west to witness some of Sicily’s most evocative sunset displays. Start exploring Trapani from its historic core, a dense network of alleys hosting a collection of small shops, restaurants, and wine bars. You'll encounter the Cathedral of San Lorenzo - where colorful artworks are spread below sweeping arches and a beautiful domed roof. Sicily feels like an island on the cusp of continents, and Trapani practically has one foot in Africa, as you soak in its pretty whitewashed houses and fusion of foods and arts. Discover the Ancient Greek influence by venturing to rich archaeological sites nearby, like Selinus and Segesta, where the treasures from the past have been unearthed and displayed. Pyramids of white salt rise up at the Riserva Naturale Saline di Trapani e Paceco. These salt marshes and windmills are a symbol of Trapani, and although sea salt production is much less important today, the small white hills remain a Trapani landmark. Look out for the pink flamingos wading in the salt pans below. For beach days, the Egadi Islands can be easily reached from Trapani - Favignana is the largest and most popular.

Tunis (La Goulette), Tunisia

WED, MAY 20 • 08:00 - 17:00

Tunisia's capital lies at the western end of the shallow Lake Tunis, which opens to the sea at La Goulette. This is the first of a string of beach suburbs that stretches away to the north; it is here that the city's port is located. This coastal area includes the ruins of ancient Carthage and the picturesque suburb of Sidi Bou Said, places that attract more visitors than Tunis itself. As far as capital cities go, Tunis has an easy-going, unhurried air about it. It is a very liberal city by Islamic standards and certainly leading the way in Western trends for the rest of the country. In Tunisia, the struggle for independence didn't take the violent course that it did in Algeria. Ruler Ahmed Bey, who governed from 1837 to 1855, encouraged Westernization and brought in military and other advisors to this end. In 1861, during the reign of Mohammed Sadiq, a constitution - the first in the Arab world - was proclaimed. Until the time of the French protectorate, the medina was very much the center of things. Then, under the French influence, the ville nouvelle (new city) emerged with its major banks, department stores, and administrative services. The main focus of ville nouvelle is the wide, tree-lined Avenue Habib Bourguiba. At its western end, this major thoroughfare becomes the Avenue de France, terminating in the Place de la Victoire and the entrance to the medina.

Cartagena (Spain) , Spain

FRI, MAY 22 • 09:00 - 17:30

On the crossroads of mighty cultures, this Murcian port has endless ancient stories to share. A valuable natural harbor attracted many civilizations to this sun-bathed, southeasterly setting - following its foundation by the Carthaginians in 227 BC. Blending the imprints left by countless cultures on this global junction, the presence of everyone from the Vandals to the Phoenicians and Moors can be felt as you explore, walking between ruins and celebrated modernist architecture along Calle Mayor. Cartagena is crowned by the soaring Castillo de la Concepcion - rise to the stout castle aboard a panoramic lift. Inside, look through reams of archaeological treasures, or admire the rolling views down over the port and across the waters. Watch out for the electric blue peacocks who strut flamboyantly. Cartagena's emergence as a visitor destination coincided with a stunning discovery in 1988 - the bowl of a gloriously preserved Roman Theater. Enter to sit among the grandiose ancient venue, so evocative, you can't help but imagine the historic performances that have graced its stage. Wander the breezy waterfront, looking across the narrow strait towards Africa's distant haze, and spotting gleaming warships. Cartagena's perfect harbor means it has been one of Spain's oldest strategic navy positions since the 16th century. Settle to enjoy the joys of tapas in lively bars - sampling crisped paella, squid and honeyed-eggplant. Easter's Semana Santa festivities are typically lively here, as hooded processions, lavish floats, and somber fiery displays roll through the streets.

Malaga (Costa del Sol), Spain

SAT, MAY 23 • 08:00 - 23:00

Bathing in the Sunshine Coast's stunning subtropical climate, and laying out endless spectacular beaches, it's no surprise that Malaga is one of Spain's most popular cities. The already impressive cultural appeal of this holiday city has skyrocketed over recent years, and with a storied old town and Moorish fortifications, Malaga has a lot to offer. Nearby, you can recline on the renowned beaches of the Costa del Sol, or venture inland to discover the Moorish treasures of Granada and Cordoba. La Malagueta beach is Malaga's spacious urban beach, perfect for a sunbathe and a dip in the warm water, before enjoying seaside cocktails or seafood tapas in the restaurants nearby. Malaga and the Costa del Sol may be best known for glorious weather and beaches, but Malaga can now stake a genuine claim as an artistic powerhouse too. Visit the renowned Picasso museum - housed in the artist's birthplace - before exploring the freshly opened outpost of the Pompidou Centre. The art also spills out onto the streets in the colorful Soho district - splashed with vibrant street paintings. Known as La Manquita - or the one-armed woman - the city's cathedral rises over the historic old town. Its huge bell tower stands tall, but an accompanying second tower was never completed - hence the nickname. The Alcazaba fortress palace looms over the waterfront and forms a spectacularly preserved remnant from the era when the Moors controlled the Andalusia region. Discover more of the Arabic influence by visiting Granada's Alhambra palace, or Cordoba's La Mezquita mosque. Together with Seville's converted cathedral, the cities form Andalusia's Golden Triangle of Moorish wonders.

Gibraltar, Gibraltar

SUN, MAY 24 • 08:00 - 22:00

A curious slice of Britain - picked up and plonked into the sun, sea, and sand of southern Spain - Gibraltar is a unique and historic peninsula, crowned by the iconic Rock of Gibraltar mountain. Bright red phone boxes gleam, Union Jacks flutter in the breeze, and cones of fish and chips are scoffed in the sun in this most British of outposts. At times a surreal and strange juxtaposition, you can be gazing at the African shoreline from the beach one moment, and carefully treading across the runway of a crammed-in international airport the next. Gibraltar's cathedral-like Rock towers 400 meters above the waves and the stark limestone mountain watches out across a narrow, strategic strait between the European and African continents. The pointed Rock is a symbol of this unique place, and you can hike it - or take the convenient cable car - to enjoy the views and meet the mischievous colony of Barbary macaques who live on its slopes. Europe's only wild monkeys roam free and loose on the mountain - so be sure to hang onto your sunglasses and cameras. The Siege Tunnels bring to life the struggles for this land, with the plucky British boring tunnels through the rock by hand, effectively converting it into a giant watchtower, capable of defending the distant territory. Natural caves inside droop with stalactites, while a squat Moorish castle stands proudly at its summit. Gibraltar packs a lot into this two-and-a-half square miles of territory, which has fallen under British jurisdiction since 1713. Grand Casemates Square is a sunbathed plaza, and drizzly old Britain feels a world away, as you sit back and sip ice-cold beers and cocktails in Gibraltar's historic center.

Cádiz, Spain

MON, MAY 25 • 08:00 - 23:00

More than a hundred watchtowers gaze out across the waves surrounding this ancient Andalusian city. Sprinkled with evocative cobbled side streets, you'll explore 3,000 years' worth of history, while stumbling across palm-tree-lined plazas of shaded coffee sippers. Cádiz claims the mantle of Western Europe's oldest city, and every piece of architecture - and every wrong turn - offers a chance to discover fascinating new tales. Founded by the Phoenicians in 1100 BC, Christopher Columbus used the city as a base for his exploratory, map-defining voyages of 1493 and 1502. The port grew in importance and wealth as Cadiz's strategic location close to Africa's northern tip helped it blossom into a center for New World trade. Catedral de Cádiz, is a display of the city's wealth and importance, looming spectacularly over the Atlantic's waves, with cawing seagulls sweeping between its twin bell towers. Inside, treasures from the city's trading exploits in the West Indies and beyond - which helped fuel the growth of this historically prosperous city - are on display. Enveloped by ocean on almost every side, Cadiz has something of an island feel, and you can cool off from southern Spain's unrelenting sunshine on the sweeping golden sand beach of Playa Victoria. The two towers of the new El Puente de la Constitución de 1812 mark a contemporary landmark in this most ancient of cities, in the form of a spectacular new road bridge. Torre Tavira, meanwhile, is the most famous of Cádiz's army of watchtowers, and the highest point in the city. Reach the top for a view of the ocean fringing the city's expanse, and to learn about the towers - constructed so trading merchants could survey the harbor from their lavish homes. The Central Market is a chaotic place of bartering, where flashing knives dissect fresh fish. Stop in at the orbiting bars to enjoy tapas, freshly prepared with the market's produce.

TUE, MAY 26 • 00:00 - 00:00

Lisbon, Portugal

WED, MAY 27 • 07:00 - 00:00

A glorious mosaic of beauty, freedom, and authenticity, Portugal's capital is a stirring artwork of a city. Known for the seven hills it spreads across, and its stirring fado music, Lisbon is a pastel-colored blend of houses and beautiful tile artworks - and this creative city strikes a perfect harmony between natural and manmade beauty. Stroll along Alfama's steep, cobbled streets as you explore one of the city's oldest neighborhoods - where each house and door could be its own photograph. Look for the decorative tiles, with the distinctive blues and whites of Azulejo ceramics, and visit the dedicated museum to learn more. Afterward, wind up to São Jorge Castle, where views out across Lisbon's red rooftops unravel. Just one of many majestic viewpoints, you can also seek out Miradouro da Graça for perhaps Lisbon's finest panorama, with the copper-colored suspension bridge stretching over sparkling water beyond the sea of buildings. The elegant Tower of Belém rises in the Tagus estuary and is a historic defender of these shores. The grand, carved cloisters of Jerónimos Monastery spread out close by, and there's another UNESCO-recognized location close by at Sintra, where a colorful town is set amid thick gardens and towering mountains - capped by the royal Pena Palace. Later, relax and take a quick break to drink Ginjinha, a cherry liqueur made from chocolate cups instead of coffee. Lisboetas have a sweet tooth, and the famous Pastel de Nata's crumbling pastry and caramelized custard topping is the essential accompaniment to any coffee stop.

Castel del Monte

An hour's coach ride takes you to Castel del Monte's coach park, where you transfer to a shuttle bus for the ride uphill to the castle entrance. This World Heritage listed castle with its almost unique octagonal structure incorporating 8 octagonal towers at the corners of the battlements stands on the top of an isolated hill near the town of Andria. Architecturally it is a mixture of Romanesque, Arabian, Norman and Gothic features, although disagreement is rife regarding its true history and purpose. Its construction was ordered by the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II of Swabia and the building work was done by local workers alongside Northern and Saracen master stonemasons. After the castle visit return to Bari for a short sightseeing drive along its elegant seafront and through the "new" part of town built by Napoleon's brother-in-law Murat, now Bari's trendy shopping district. The last highlight of the tour is a photo stop at Bari's iconic Norman-Swabian Castle. At the end of the tour, guests may choose to go back to the pier with the bus or stay downtown and return to the ship at leisure.

Elegant Trani, Olive Oil Mill & Tasting

BRI-G

The first part of the one-hour drive to Trani goes through Bari's newer area along the seafront road. Your guide will point out some of the imposing buildings which are a legacy of the Fascist architecture with which Mussolini sought to recall the glories of ancient Rome and to signify his powerful influence. The journey continues northwest up the scenic coastal route to the lovely seaside town of Trani. The elegant cathedral, a splendid example of Apulian Romanesque architecture, stands with its soaring bell tower on one side of the U-shaped harbor facing the vast, almost modernist Swabian Castle on the other. Trani Cathedral is one of the finest examples of churches in the Apulian Romanesque style, boasting a delicately carved 13th-century main portal and the magnificent late-12th-century bronze doors cast by Barisano da Trani with their 32 relief panels decorated with figures of Christ, the Virgin, Apostles and Saints. Also from the 12th century are fragments of fine mosaic floor tiles near the main altar. The cathedral's interior was embellished with Baroque decorations in the 19th century but later restored to its original Romanesque appearance in 1952-55. From the side aisles you will reach the crypt dedicated to St. Nicholas the Pilgrim built, along with the lower church of Santa Maria, over a Paleochristian site housing a rectangular hypogeum. This is the underground tomb of Saint Leucius, the first bishop of Brindisi. After the visit you will have some free time to wander around this lovely town locally known as 'the slow town' and sit and relax in one of its charming cafes. At the right time of day you may see the hustle and bustle of the local fish market, but in any case the lively fishing port, wide paved streets and elegant buildings are a pleasure in themselves. A stroll along Trani's harbour brings you back to the coach to continue your tour towards Bisceglie. Like much of Apulia, the Bisceglie area is renowned for its robust extra virgin olive oil, mainly pressed from Cima di Bitonto and Coratina cultivars. A short drive through countryside dotted with sculpture-like olive trees takes you to a leading oil producer's, where you will learn about olive harvesting and oil production and take part in an oil tasting. You will be served with what they call a snack – a tasting of various extra virgin olive oils as well as citrus and spicy oils, bread with pâté and preserves, taralli, olives, mozzarella and focaccia bread. It is time for the drive back to Bari after having nourished soul and body with culture, tradition and flavors.

Elegant Trani, Olive Oil Mill & Tasting CODE: BRI-G DURATION 6 HOURS ACTIVITY LEVEL EXTENSIVE Full participation requires being in good physical condition and may involve inclines, steps, uneven surfaces, and/or extended periods of standing. The first part of the one-hour drive to Trani goes through Bari's newer area along the seafront road. Your guide will point out some of the imposing buildings which are a legacy of the Fascist architecture with which Mussolini sought to recall the glories of ancient Rome and to signify his powerful influence. The journey continues northwest up the scenic coastal route to the lovely seaside town of Trani. The elegant cathedral, a splendid example of Apulian Romanesque architecture, stands with its soaring bell tower on one side of the U-shaped harbor facing the vast, almost modernist Swabian Castle on the other. Trani Cathedral is one of the finest examples of churches in the Apulian Romanesque style, boasting a delicately carved 13th-century main portal and the magnificent late-12th-century bronze doors cast by Barisano da Trani with their 32 relief panels decorated with figures of Christ, the Virgin, Apostles and Saints. Also from the 12th century are fragments of fine mosaic floor tiles near the main altar.

Matera & Unesco Sassi District with Lunch

BRI-E

The approximately 1 hour 30 minute-drive from Bari to Matera goes through the rich arable Apulian farmland and hills where durum wheat is grown to produce the traditional yellowish bread known as Pane di Altamura. Upon arrival in Matera, your tour guide will lead you through labyrinthine narrow alleys and stairways to explore the timeless World Heritage Sassi. Matera's unique landscape is due to its position on the edge of a ravine, with the old town center split into two by a small hill called Civita, where the medieval town stands. An aerial view of the city shows a butterfly with Civita as its body and the two wings fanning out into the separate districts of Sasso Barisano and Sasso Caveoso. Sassi translates into "stones", or "rocks" in English. Caves in the ravine's soft limestone were inhabited by ancient man, whose descendants added stone to create rock dwellings and churches in the cliff face. You can easily translate Sassi as Stones into English, curiously referring to the origin of the settlements you are going to visit. Sassi were partly built and partly carved out of the soft ravine limestone: houses and grottoes, or churches and grottoes at the same time, where life in the past was really hard and the economy was based upon pasture, because agriculture was quite impossible in a stone context! Sassi were considered one of Southern Italy's examples of poverty, but they have been transformed into the most important cultural heritage nowadays, so you will easily understand the reason why such a strange settlement has been listed among the UNESCO sites. Your guide will describe the "vicinati", in which small groups of neighbors living in damp one-room cave dwellings with their livestock clung together around little yards, labyrinths of winding streets, rock churches and cellars, sharing what little they had with the families living nearby. Visit a cave dwelling furnished as it used to be until as recently as the 1960s, and learn about how the locals eked out a living here. After visiting the Sassi with their rupestrian dwellings and churches it is time to enjoy a sit-down lunch in one of Matera's most famous restaurants. The four-course meal of regional dishes includes an appetizer, entrée, main course and dessert served with mineral water and the local Aglianico wine. After lunch you have half an hour to wander round or relax before boarding the coach to head across the ravine for a breathtaking panoramic view of Matera and its ravine, where Mel Gibson's movie "The Passion of the Christ" was filmed on location. There will be much to reminisce over during the drive back to the pier. Full participation requires being in good physical condition and may involve inclines, steps, uneven surfaces, and/or extended periods of standing. A meal is included in the excursion.

Depart from Cadiz and enjoy a 75-minute motorcoach ride to the peaceful Pueblo Blanco of Arcos de la Frontera, perched high in the hilltops of the Cadiz Sierras. Arcos de la Frontera, Gothic Cathedral These white villages date back to the Spaniard's centuries-long fight to win Spain back from the Muslims (Moors). Arcos' name, de la Frontera, reflects this frontier history. While the wars began in the 9th century, Spain wasn't secure until the 15th century. Yet the town itself became a pillar of Christianity after Alfonso the Wise of Castile (1252-1284) expelled the Moors. The Gothic Cathedral he built remains on its high ridge and is known for its ten bells, which tolled throughout the war with the Moors. Several Moorish banners were taken in the nearby battle of Zahara and have been on display in a church in Arcos since 1483. Old city walking exploration Once you arrive, commence your an hour-long walking tour of this cliff-side town. Explore the labyrinth of narrow streets and alleys that run out from the Plaza Cabildo. Along the way, admire several churches that were built during the 15th and 16th centuries. Be sure to notice the old Castillo and Santa Maria Church that overlook the square.

Picasso & Old Málaga

AGP-D

Málaga is not only the capital of the Costa del Sol, but also a cultural reference on a national and international level. Since opening in 2003, the Picasso museum has surpassed the most optimistic forecasts, enabling visitors to enjoy over two hundred major works by an artist considered to be the towering genius of 20th-century world painting. Málaga Depart the pier towards the city of Málaga, one of the oldest cities in the world, founded in the 8th century founded by the Phoenicians. Your first stop is Calle Larios, the main shopping street of Málaga. Next, cross Constitution Square, then walk along Calle Granada to the Plaza de la Merced. Here, discover Picasso's birthplace and an exhibition about the famous artist, then proceed to the highlight of the tour, the Picasso Museum of Málaga, or 'Museo Picasso Málaga'. Picasso Museum The Picasso Museum is permanently housed in the Palacio de Buenavista, a 16th-century historical building that is adorned with the Andalusian architecture of the day, along with a unique blend of Renaissance and Mudejar elements. Museo Picasso Málaga was created in response to Pablo Picasso's own desire for his work to be present in the city where he was born on October 25, 1881. The museum was created thanks to Christine and Bernard Ruiz-Picasso, the artist's daughter-in-law and grandson, whose donations constitute the core of the collection. It was also made possible thanks to the efforts of the Junta de Andalucía, which coordinated the major project of setting up a museum devoted to the artist whose styles and techniques changed the course of modern art. Bodega Patio de Beatas Following your guided museum visit, proceed to the Bodega Patio de Beatas for 3 small tapas accompanied by one glass of wine. Afterward, you may opt to return directly to the pier, or remain in the city for further exploration before taking the shuttle back to the pier.

S.A.L.T. Behind the Scenes of Caffè Sicilia: a Feast of Flavors with Chef's Table Pastry Master Corrado Assenza

QIC-N

Your host: Corrado Assenza Pastry chef Corrado Assenza has turned a family sweet shop dating back to 1892 into a destination revered by gourmands everywhere. His granite, gelati, cannoli, cassate and almond nougat are considered to be the country's finest, and his candied orange zests are used by the best panettone-makers. Before taking over Caffè Sicilia, in Noto, he had studied to become an agronomist; he's an exceptionally articulate storyteller, with a deep knowledge of the history and anthropology of Sicilian gastronomy, and a masterful chef, with a distinctive philosophy promoting a lighter, more natural (but no less delicious) approach to patisserie. He sources the best seasonal ingredients, treating them as gently as possible. Today he works alongside his son Francesco, the 4th generation of Caffè Sicilia. Scenic Drive towards Noto, Caffè Sicilia If you sign up for the program departing Siracusa, Corrado Assenza - legendary maestro pasticcere (you might have seen him on Netflix's “Chef's Table”) and “almond whisperer” - will be your guide on a journey to remember. Upon departure from the port you will drive for about 45 minutes towards the Noto area where Mr. Assenza lives and his family's Caffè Sicilia has been in business since 1892. “There's a big difference between 'sweet' and 'sugary,'” Assenza says. “And I'm on a constant spasmodic quest for nature's own sweetness. I don't like to add refined sugar,” he points out, a key element in his philosophy which favors honey and pivots around a lighter (less yolks, less fat, no artificial thickenings), gentler patisserie. To hear him explain how savory and sweet mingle in Sicilian tradition, and the story of its influences, from the Arab world to the aristocracy of old Europe, is quite simply mesmerizing. But it's his food that will absolutely blow your mind. Welcome Snacks, Private introduction and demo on Sicilian Pastry You will see Assenza in action at Caffè Sicilia, in the center of the jewel of Sicilian Baroque, Noto: the caffè was recently renovated optimising production in the in-house laboratory without changing the atmosphere of the shop. You will first enjoy a welcome snack sitting at the café's tables, observing the lively coming and going of customers and staff. You will then join Corrado Assenza for a lively immersion in Sicilian pastry and seasonal ingredients: he will show you his favorite materia prima and you will taste the delicious creations it inspires, from gelati to sorbets, from cakes to granite, from cookies to biancomangiare (Assenza's signature almond pudding.) This tasting will be different every time, depending on the season. Pastry Laboratory, Granita and Biancomangiare Demo, Caffè Sicilia Aperitivo You will then participate in a very exclusive extended (45 minutes to an hour) visit to Assenza's laboratory (where all products are handmade, slowly): here the pastry maestro will show you how he makes granita and biancomangiare (or another sweet option, if the season’s ingredients inspire him otherwise.) And finally, you will return to the café's tables to enjoy a unique aperitivo, discovering that even in Assenza's cocktails and savory snacks - much like in his sweets - the purity of Sicilian ingredients shines in a delicious, unforgettable way. After aperitivo walk back to the coach and drive to the Syracusa pier. Full participation may include a limited number of steps, uneven surfaces, and/or periods of standing.

The Walls Erice's Norman-style influences are reflected in its imposing towers and fortifications. During your walking tour, see the walls that stretch from Porta Spada to Porta Trapani that protect the only side of the hill with no natural defenses. On all other sides, the sheer rock face made the town one of the most impregnable fortresses on the island. Balio Gardens Next, proceed for a visit to the English-style Balio Gardens. These delightful gardens were laid out in 1870 by Count Pepoli, and feature a monumental entrance with a double staircase. Venus Castle The last stop on your walking tour is the Venus Castle.
