Itinerary
Day 1Civitavecchia (Italy)
Embark Royal Clipper in Civitavecchia, gateway to Rome.
Day 2Portoferraio
Known as the Pearl of the Mediterranean, Elba is a glorious paradise of azure waters, hidden coves, tranquil beaches and stunning views. Elba's restaurants serve excellent seafood, and small private vineyards produce local Moscato and Aleatico wines.
Day 3L'Arinella Beach - Bastia (Corsica)
L'Arinella Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Corsica. The water is crystal clear, calm and warm, but the main attraction of the beach is that it is never crowded. Bastia looks like it stepped right out of the travel diary of a 19th century Grand Tour. Bastia's gracious Italianate buildings were created to house the administrative offices of the capital of Haute Corse.
Day 4Bonifacio
Medieval houses cling on to soaring limestone cliffs in the beautiful Mediterranean town of Bonifacio. Perhaps explore the labyrinth of charming streets and traditional cafes in the beautiful Old Town, admire the impressive 9th-century citadel or wander around the marina, full of luxury yachts.
Day 5Alghero (Sardinia, Italy)
Alghero is the main resort in the northwest of Sardinia and one of it's most beautiful medieval cities. It's bustling historic centre is packed with excellent bars and restaurants making it a great place to hang out. It is also ideally placed for exploring the beaches of nearby Riviera del Corallo.
Day 6Calvi (Corsica)
Calvi is a historic port, home to an impressive 15th-century citadel and magnificent 16th-century cathedral. Perhaps head to La Pinede, a beautiful white sandy beach, see the statue which is said to mark the birthplace of Christopher Columbus or visit the museum and learn about the history of Corsica.
Day 7Monaco
Monaco is the fabled domain of princes and movie stars. The magnificent Palais du Prince and opulent casinos remind you of an elegant, pre-war era. With more wealth concentrated in one small area than almost any place on earth, this tiny principality retains its gilt edged allure.
