Day 1 Nice , France

Embarkation in Nice (France) in the evening.

Day 2 Saint Florent, Corsica

Its beautiful white sand beaches, its old town and its fishing and sailing port nicknamed small Saint-Tropez of Corsica, make Saint-Florent, former Genoese city, one of the most pleasant cities of Corsica. Its picturesque and typically Corsican old town is charming and abounds in incredible architectural sites.

Day 3 Girolata / Calv, Corsica

Magnificent Calvi… From the minute you arrive, this Genoese citadel welcomes you from its stone ramparts with their warm colours. The jewel of the Balagne, the “sentinel city” is impressively beautiful. Everything combines to make it unique and unforgettable: the deep blue colour of the water, the sandy beaches edged with pine trees, the lively and sparkling streets, and the mountains that surround it, over which the citadel seems to be keeping watch. The coast of the Balagne region runs from Calvi to L’Ile Rousse and is renowned for its picturesque villages with their narrow cobbled streets. This is the occasion for you to discover the Corsican maquis, its medieval hilltop villages and its wild landscapes, which cannot fail to move you.

Day 4 Bonifacio, Corsica

Perched precariously on a high rocky promontory, Bonifacio (Corsica) occupies a very special place in the Corsican landscape, particularly when viewed from the sea. A fortress city atop white limestone and granite cliffs that have been sculpted by wind and waves, Bonifacio’s historic medieval heart of tall, narrow houses and winding cobblestone streets is protected by an impressive citadel wall embellished with square towers: a beautiful sight.

Day 5 Portoferraio, Italy

The island of Elba is at the heart of the Tuscan Archipelago and presents a finely chiselled profile sheltering many unspoiled coves. roman churches, Medicean fortresses and memories of Napoleon blend into the picture postcard that is Portoferraio (Italy). It is one of the oldest towns on the island, the Ligurians, Etruscans and Greeks having shaped its history before it became a Roman colony. Here you can follow in the footsteps of Napoleon as you wind your way through the pastel-coloured houses protected by the two Medicean forts.

Day 6 Imperia, Italy

Port details pending.

Day 7 Nice (France) Disembarkation

Disembark this morning in Nice, France for your continued journey home.
