Unveil Coastal Hideaways

The delights of the French Riviera, Italy and Spain are even better experienced with more time in port to catch the nightlife and sunsets. Explore the UNESCO-listed cities of Florence, Pisa and Lucca, or embark on a truffle hunting adventure in the Tuscan countryside with a late night in Livorno. Staying late in port, there is time to kayak the beautiful Portofino Bay and explore its iconic Castle Brown for breathtaking views. Take a daytrip from Nice to the charming medieval village of Èze or uncover the gems of the French Riviera with a scenic drive to Grasse. The charms of the seaside town of Saint-Raphaël beckon with an extended evening in Saint-Tropez. Here, a nearby olive oil mill invites you to delve into the rich history of Mediterranean cuisine with a tasting of golden liquid. The sweet confections of Narbonne’s chocolate factory entice you with a day in Port-Vendres. From a stunning sunset at Ibiza’s UNESCO-listed ramparts to a wine tasting at a celebrated local vineyard in Cassis, this is a journey filled with exquisite moments to savor.
