Day 1: Barcelona
Flight from London Heathrow Airport to Barcelona International Airport
Private Transfer Airport to Hotel
Stay at NH Collection Barcelona Gran Hotel Calderon for 2 nights


Day 3: Southern Mediterranean Sojourn / Barcelona, Spain
Private Transfer Hotel to Port. One of Europe's most visually stunning cities, Barcelona balances the medieval intimacy of its Gothic Quarter with the grace and distinction of the wide boulevards in the Moderniste Eixample. It was the home of architect Antoni Gaud, whose Sagrada Familia Cathedral, Park Güell and Casa Mil are the most profound statements of Modernisme. View the splendid works at the Picasso Museum and the Miro Foundation, or discover Barcelona's passionate ambiance at a flamenco show.


Day 4: Valencia, Spain
Valencia was established by the Greeks and later occupied by the Carthaginians, Romans, Visigoths, and Arabs. A 15th-century artistic movement here gave the world spectacular paintings, sculptures, and jewels. Today, the City of Arts and Sciences, Valencia, offers visitors remarkable samples of modern architecture, alongside such notable classics as the 13th-century Cathedral and Chapel of the Holy Chalice. Built on the site of a mosque, which was originally a Roman temple, the Chapel contains the chalice which legend says was used by Christ at the Last Supper. For a more historic view, take in the Quart Towers, a former gate of the medieval wall, built in 1444; and Serranos Towers, a former prison surrounded by a moat and built around 1391.


Day 5: Alicante, Spai
There is something for everyone in Alicante. The historic Mediterranean port city is located in renowned Costa Blanca, within the region of Valencia. From outdoor cafs to white-sand beaches to museums that house rare masterpieces, this town has everything one would expect of a Mediterranean escape. Be sure to visit the picturesque town of Guadalest, one of the most unique destinations in all of Spain.


Day 6: Palma de Mallorca, Spain
Mallorca, also known as Majorca, is a wind-swept island with steep jagged cliffs and olive groves more than a thousand years old. Mallorca is an island of contrasts. To the south is a busy tourist area with hotels, bars, restaurants, shopping, and dazzling nightlife. To the north are rocky valleys, sleepy villages shrouded in bougainvillea, and breathtaking views. Palma is dominated by the breathtaking Gothic Cathedral, located high above the waterfront on the site of a former mosque.


Day 7: At Sea
TBA


Day 8: Sete, France
Spend a glorious day in the Provençal countryside; see magnificent Carcassonne with its towers, turrets, half- timbered houses, and superb nave of the 11th-century Basilica de Saint-Nazaire, beautiful hilltop Les Baux, or Arles, where Van Gogh found so much inspiration. Or explore fortified Aigues Mortes in the heart of the Petite Camargue, surrounded by ponds, marshes, and saltpans.


Day 9: Provence (Marseille), France
Located in southeastern France, today's Marseille is a far cry from the sleepy villages it once inspired in Cezanne's paintings. With more than a million people, the city remains the cosmopolitan and exuberant capital of southern Europe, with its picturesque Old Quarter, lively sidewalk cafes and shops, and Romanesque-Byzantine Notre Dame de la Garde Basilica, overlooking the steep cliffs and offering a birds eye view of the citys colorful quartiers stretching down toward the sea.


Day 10: Tuscany (Livorno), Italy
Livorno, located in the center of Tuscany, is the gateway to the glory of Renaissance Florence and Pisa. From the 13th to 16th centuries, this era of creative freedom encouraged the genius of Dante, Donatello, Michelangelo, Giotto, Botticelli, da Vinci, and Machiavelli to create some of the world's most noted masterpieces. Elegant Florence offers the Galleria dell'Accademia, with its iconic masterpiece, Michelangelos David. The Uffizi is home to the most renowned art gallery in Italy, with representative works by the titans of Renaissance art. Join us for an excursion to Pisa, and tour the city's beautiful and historic Campo dei Miracoli. Nearby Siena captures the spirit of Medieval Italy, and Lucca offers the memorable chance to bicycle through the fragrant Tuscan countryside.


Day 11:
TBA


Day 12: Palermo (Sicily), Italy
Palermo, the capital city of Sicily, was founded by the Phoenicians in the eighth century BC. Palermo remained a Phoenician city until the First Punic War, when Sicily fell under Roman rule. Palermo remains a jewel of the Mediterranean, and is Sicily's largest and most cosmopolitan city. No visit to Sicily is ever complete without


Day 13: La Goulette, Tunisia
Travel across millennia as you visit the ruins of ancient Carthage and the opulent, historic medina with its winding alleys and souks. Visit the superb Bardo Museum with its spectacular Roman mosaics or the lovely whitewashed village of Sidi Bou Said perched on a cliff above the sea, a charming spot of cobbled streets, flower-filled courtyards and ornate window grills painted deep blue. Enjoy looking for interesting jewelry, caftans, and inlaid boxes.


Day 14 - 15: Valletta, Malta (overnight)
Malta's major port and capital, the entire city of Valletta, was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980. The centerpiece is the impressive 19th-century Mosta Dome, visible from anywhere on the island, with its inlaid marble floor and the gilded, carved stone flowers set around the interior dome. For a tranquil afternoon, stroll the San Anton Palace Gardens, artistically laid out in Three Villages - Attard, Lija, and Balzan. Or, for spectacular vistas, take a day tour to Dingli Cliffs, which offer striking views of the sea and rugged coastline. Valetta is also a portal to day trips to nearby Mdina, with its landmark Baroque Cathedral of St. John, and Rabat, the provincial township that was once part of the Roman city of Melita, where you can explore several fascinating archaeological digs.


Day 16: At Sea
TBA.


Day 17: Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Whether enjoying the street performers at the Spanish Steps and people-watching over a fine glass of wine in colorful Trastevere, or taking in the historical and architectural glory that is Rome, visitors are spoiled for choice in this truly Eternal City. St. Peter's Basilica is a full-day outing, featuring the Sistine Chapel and panoramic city vistas for those willing to climb to the top of the dome. Other landmarks not to miss include the renowned Trevi Fountain, the Coliseum, and Aventine Hill, which provides you with a grand view of the imposing remains of the Imperial Palaces and the Circus Maximus, of Ben Hur fame.
