Itinerary
May 23, Thursday Depart 6:00 PM
Barcelona, Spain
Barcelona, capital of Catalonia, is a celebration of history and heir to Greek, Phoenician, Roman, Carthaginian, Gothic and Arab cultural legacies. Since it is nearly as close to Rome, Geneva and Munich as it is to Madrid, Barcelona has long been the Spanish link to Western Europe. It was the home of Picasso, Miró, Dali, Casals and Gaudí and has been described as a Mediterranean Manhattan, a cosmopolitan experimental center for political ideas and artistic movements. In addition to its abundance of artistic and architectural treasures, Barcelona serves as the gateway to one of the world’s most impressive mountainside enclaves at Montserrat. Discover the secret legends of the Black Virgin and the alluring chants of monastic life high atop the Catalonian plains. Barcelona’s ancient city walls and the narrow crooked streets of the town’s old section are laid out for your discovery. You will find that Barcelona has something for everybody.
May 24, Friday Arrival 8:00 AM, Depart 7:00 PM
Cassis, France
Take a picture of Cassis and you have an instant work of art, colorful and painterly in the manner of the French Impressionists. Certainly, the lively fishing port has all the elements to inspire a timeless composition: vibrantly hued boats bobbing in the harbor, rugged hills carpeted with luxuriant shrubbery, a headland crowned by a rocky plateau (called Cap Canaille), and a 14th-century castle, today a privately owned hotel, overlooking it all. Take a walk from town or board a boat to discover Cassis’s renowned calanques, steep-walled inlets with turquoise waters and small beaches. Naturally, you will want to have your camera ready to memorialize these and other sights, including the old fountains and open-air markets of the village and, farther afield, acres of vineyards and pine groves.
May 25, Saturday Arrival 7:30 AM, Depart 9:00 PM
Florence/Livorno, Italy
Goethe once observed that Tuscany “looks like Italy should [look].” Fortunately, little has changed in the two centuries since the German poet was himself a tourist in Tuscany. The Tyrrhenian port of Livorno was founded in the 15th century. It is the gateway to Italy’s Tuscan region and to many spectacular sights; including the extraordinary Leaning Tower of Pisa, the charming medieval village of Lucca, the lovely hill town of San Gimignano and the timeless city of Florence. No place is as imbued with such grace, dignity, serenity and history as is Florence. This city’s wealth of architectural and artistic treasures includes works by Raphael, da Vinci, Botticelli and Michelangelo. Truly Florence, cradle of the Italian Renaissance, is one of the world’s most enticing cities.
May 26, Sunday Arrival 7:00 AM, Depart 11:59 PM
Monte Carlo, Monaco
Monaco is an ancient principality steeped in rich and colorful history. Its proud monarchy is presided over by Prince Albert, who assumed the throne after his famed father Prince Rainier died in 2005.
Today when gazing on its modern skyline, it is hard to imagine that Monaco endured a turbulent past. Once a Greek settlement conquered by the Romans, it was bought from the Genoese in 1309 by the Grimaldis, who still rule as the world’s oldest monarchy.
Monaco covers less than one square mile and is known primarily for its Grand Casino.
May 27, Monday Arrival 8:00 AM, Depart 5:00 PM
Corsica/Calvi, France
Corsica is known as l’ile de beaute, the island of beauty, which is an apt name for this Mediterranean gem filled with white sandy beaches, azure seas, dense forests, snowcapped mountains and rolling countryside. The prosperous citadel town of Calvi is located on top of a promontory in the northwest section of the island and is surrounded by turquoise waters of the Golfe de Calvi. The coast between Calvi and l’ile Rousse to the north is studded with spectacular beaches. Journey to the south of the island to see the Citadelle of Bonafacio, which sits precariously on top of a headland of white limestone cliffs. Noted as the most stunning natural sight in Corsica, Les Calanches is a dramatic mountain landscape of red and orange granite that formed the most amazing and unusual shapes.
May 28, Tuesday Arrival 12:30 PM
Barcelona, Spain
Barcelona, capital of Catalonia, is a celebration of history and heir to Greek, Phoenician, Roman, Carthaginian, Gothic and Arab cultural legacies.
