Specialist guides and the on board lecturers will bring to life the dynamic history of rivaling civilizations and the legacy of some of the world’s greatest art and architecture. Cruise from Rome to Barcelona visiting fi ve UNESCO World Heritage sites. Discover Carcassonne’s French medieval fortifi cations; the Italian picture-postcard, cliffside villages of the Cinque Terre; the Renaissance treasures of Florence or the historic Tuscan monuments of Lucca and Pisa. Admire the natural beauty of Sardinia’s dazzling Costa Smeralda; Nice’s mélange of infl uences—the Savoys, Habsburgs and Romanovs; the principality of Monaco, the epitome of Riviera chic; Cannes, the centerpiece of the Côte d’Azur; and Corsica’s alluring port of Bonifacio. We are co-sponsoring this chartered departure with other educational organizations, such as the Smithsonian Institution, Columbia University and Harvard University. Space is very limited, so I encourage you to book now. Come see why these splendid coastlines of the French and Italian rivieras became a favorite retreat for artists, writers, and nobility.

Crossroads of CivilizationsCrossroads of Civilizations

Rome, ItalyOnce the center of a vast empire, this UNESCO World Heritage site is today the historic heart of Italy. From the iconic Colosseum and the Vatican, to the Spanish Steps and the Catacombs, the remains of ancient Rome still humble modern visitors.

Costa Smeralda, SardiniaSardinia’s Costa Smeralda (“Emerald Coast”) features remote seaside villages, glamorous villas, a rugged landscape rising from exquisite white sand beaches, and azure waters plied by sleek luxury yachts. Anchor at Golfo di Aranci near Porto Cervo, a haven for celebrities. On the morning tour, visit the well-preserved granite Nuraghe Albucciu, one of the Bronze-Age fortresses unique to Sardinia.

Bonifacio, Corsica, FranceDock in the ancient town of Bonifacio, overlooking the sparkling harbor from sheer white limestone cliffs at the southern tip of the island of Corsica.

Photo this page: A fairy-tale image of towers and drawbridges, the medieval town of Carcassonne is protected by double walls nine to 15 feet thick.

Cover photo: Brightly painted houses and fi shing boats line Portofi no’s waterfront on the Italian Riviera.

The turquoise waters and emerald coasts of the French and Italian rivieras have long enticed the Greeks, Etruscans, Phoenicians, Romans and

Germanic peoples. The beau monde began fl ocking to the seaside towns as de rigor of the 19th-century “Grand Tour” to rejuvenate in the

salubrious climate. The rise of Italian nobility—particularly the Savoys, Italy’s ruling family from 1861 to 1946, and the Grimaldis, the lineage of the current Prince of Monaco—further infl uenced the development of these gems nestled between the Alps and the sea. The Côte d’Azur’s radiant quality of light captivated Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall, distinctly

infl uencing each artist’s use of brilliant colors, while the glamour of the region attracted great writers like Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Picturesque at any angle, Italy’s colorful Cinque Terre is a lovely sight from the sea, while each of its fi ve terraced villages offers breathtaking views of the Ligurian coastline from the shore.

This beautiful port’s fundamentally French character bears a strong Italian imprint, manifest in the islanders’ French-Italian dialect. Transfer by small train for a walking tour through the medieval Old Town. Stroll the Rue des Deux-Empereurs, where Charles V and Napoleon once lodged, and see the Gothic Church of St-Dominique and the famous Grain de Sable limestone formation.

Florence, ItalyEnjoy the rolling Tuscan landscape of vineyards and cypresses en route to Florence, birthplace of the Renaissance. This iconic UNESCO World Heritage site is a treasure trove of unparalleled achievements in art, architecture and literature. During the walking tour, admire Brunelleschi’s soaring dome; Ghiberti’s moving “Doors of Paradise,” depicting scenes from the Old Testament in cast bronze; and Michelangelo’s David, considered one of his crowning achievements.

Pisa/LuccaThe beautifully preserved medieval cities of Lucca and Pisa are a short, scenic drive from Livorno. Tour Pisa’s famous Piazza dei Miracoli, a UNESCO World Heritage site, showcasing the legendary Leaning Tower and visit the impressive 11th-century Duomo and the largest baptistery in Italy. Walk along Lucca’s intact Renaissance city walls, now a promenade for pedestrians, and see its elaborate 11th-century Cattedrale di San

Martino, still an important symbol of the city.

Cinque TerreFrom Porto Venere’s small harbor, board a private boat cruise and dock in the villages of the Cinque Terre. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a series of fi ve fi shing villages with lovely pastel homes clinging to remote cliffs that jut into the Ligurian Sea. Discover the spectacular nuances of the towns of

Riomaggiore, Manarola and Vernazza, linked by a walking path that offers marvelous views of the charming coves, hidden beaches and terraced vineyards that produce the famous dessert wine Sciacchetrà.

Portofi noPortofi no is the perfect village for a leisurely afternoon on the Italian Riviera. Visit the 17th-century San Giorgio Church, home to the relics of this dragon-slaying saint; stroll the pedestrian-only streets; or sip a cappuccino in an outdoor café.

Monte Carlo, MonacoThe principality of Monaco’s dazzling historic district, Monte Carlo, offers an intoxicating mixture of princely sights and Casino Royale intrigue, and is famous for its Grand Casino. Admire the legendary belle-époque architecture and enjoy a walking tour on the Rock of Monaco. See the changing of the guards at the Prince’s Palace, home of Europe’s longest-reigning dynasty, and the neo-Romanesque Cathedral of St. Nicholas, where Princess Grace is interred.

CannesSettled as a fi shing village by monks, Cannes today is the quintessence of dazzling Riviera allure and host of the international fi lm festival. See the picturesque, palm-lined La Croisette promenade which leads to the medieval lanes, churches and castle of Le Suquet. Visit nearby Vallauris, where Pablo Picasso discovered his passion for ceramics. Also, see the bay of Golfe-Juan, where Napoleon Bonaparte landed after his escape from exile and began his 100-day reign that ended at Waterloo.

CarcassonneSettled on the frontier between France and Spain along ancient trade routes linking the Atlantic with the Mediterranean and Iberian Peninsula, the medieval core of Carcassonne, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has been occupied since the sixth century B.C., fortifi ed by the Romans, conquered by the Visigoths in the fi fth century, overrun by Persians in the seventh century, and repelled centuries of invading Franks and hoards of Barbarians, who each left their indelible infl uence on the extraordinary architectural and artistic heritage of the city. Walk the cobblestone streets and admire the drawbridges and watchtowers. Visit the Musée des Beaux Arts, the iconic castle, and the beautiful Basilica of St. Nazire to enjoy the joyous ringing of bells that evoke the gothic and medieval past of Carcassonne.

Barcelona, SpainThe lively and beautiful quarters of Barcelona are fi lled with the artistic treasures of Dali, Gaudí and Picasso, and Europe’s greatest concentration of Gothic architecture.

Prince Ranier III’s palace overlooks the Mediterranean from the 200-foot-high Rock of Monaco.
