Embark on an 8-day mystery cruise aboard the Variety Voyager through Italy and Malta designed for travelers who seek the unexpected. Departing from Valletta and concluding in Naples, this itinerary offers exclusive access to lesser-known destinations—remote islands, historic fishing villages, and secluded coves rarely seen by conventional travelers. With no set agenda and ports revealed just hours before arrival, every day delivers a new opportunity for discovery. Experience authentic culture, regional cuisine, and untold stories that define the character of each hidden stop. This is not a typical cruise—it’s a journey of spontaneous exploration where adaptability is key, curiosity is rewarded, and each destination is a genuine surprise.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
