   Day 1 ·Trieste, ItalyEmbark

   17 Sept 2027

   A little slice of eternal Italy that sits between Slovenia and the Adriatic Coast. Trieste is a charming destination which has been furnished decorously by grandeur and royalty through the centuries.
   The heart of the medieval old city and its neo-classical Austrian quarter offer great expressions of this seaport’s colourful past. The food is divine, the culture vibrant, and ambience quite unique.

   Day 3 ·Dubrovnik, Croatia

   19 Sept 2027

   Ever visited a 14th century pharmacy? Things have changed a little since then, but it's well worth a look during your visit to a Franciscan monastery. Don't froget to stroll along the promenade and medieval city walls.

   Day 4 ·Corfu, Greece

   20 Sept 2027

   Corfu boasts some of the most stunning scenery in the Greek Isles. Drive along the coastline and through the mountainous interior to see the Achilleon Palace built by the Empress Elizabeth, join in an island celebration and feast, or explore the winding streets of Old Town.

   Day 5 ·Cephalonia

   21 Sept 2027

   An authentic, rugged and definitely non-touristy Greek island community, Cephalonia’s unspoilt and timeless allure is a wonderful setting for a true love story – including Captain Corelli's Mandolin.
   The largest of the Ionian islands, Cephalonia is home to just 30,000 residents, living mainly in the coastal towns and resorts. Others live much as they have done for centuries, in remote mountain villages.

7. 7

   Day 7 ·Naples (tours to Capri or Pompeii)

   23 Sept 2027

   Napoli, as it's known to Italians, has a little bit of everything – ancient churches and universities, stunning parks, and wonderful restaurants. The Duomo is perhaps one of the most beautiful ancient cathedrals in the world. Take time to explore the Palazzo Reale, a palace built at the turn of the 12th century. Or visit the Museo Archeologico Nazionale to see one of the most comprehensive collections of Greco-Roman artefacts anywhere, including an abundance of mosaics from the buried city of Pompei.
