Tyrrhenian Treasures and Malta

Nestled along the glamorous French Riviera and known for its stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife, St Tropez is a destination that exudes luxury, charm and timeless elegance. A playground for the rich and famous, enjoy a taste of the good life as you explore.

A small island with a lot of charm, Porto Santo Stefano promises the ideal spot for slow living, set against a backdrop of beautiful coastal landscapes. Marvel at the 17th-century architecture or enjoy a round of golf at Spanish champion Seve Ballestreros’ 18-hole course.

The colourful port of Marina Grande welcomes A-listers and discerning travellers alike to the famous isle of Capri in Italy’s Bay of Naples. Wander the pristine Gardens of Augustus, take a boat ride in the ethereal Blue Grotto or grab a limoncello in the central piazza.

A quaint harbour on the eastern shore of Sicily, Taormina is perfect for exploring the Greco-Roman ruins of Taormina, as well as the active volcano Mt. Etna. Spend the day walking through the streets of Castelmola or head deep into the Sicilian countryside for a wine-tasting session.

A destination not often visited by cruise ships, Malta’s smaller sister-isle is overflowing with charm. Explore the island’s capital and historic Citadel, or head to Comino’s Blue Lagoon for a swim and a snorkel before anchoring at Malta’s Valletta in the evening.

Both the smallest and southernmost capital city in Europe, Valletta is perfect for exploring Malta. Set out to discover Malta's most important landmarks, visit the monumental St John's Co-Cathedral or take in the harbour views from the upper Barrakka Gardens.

Spend the day at leisure, exploring the birthplace of Napoleon as you take in local churches, visit Maison Napoleon or simply relax on the beach.

Boasting seven superb beaches, Iberian archaeological remains from the year 6 BC and the Church of Sant Esteve on the beach, Palamos is a destination that offers something for everyone.

Spain's second-largest city and the capital of Catalonia, Barcelona is one of Europe's most beautiful cities. Visit Gaudí's Sagrada Familia Church, explore the site of the 1992 Olympic Games or learn about cava in one of the most important cellars in San Sadurní d’Anoia.

Close to the city's best shopping and attractions, spend the final days of your adventure at the Mandarin Oriental Barcelona before flying back to the UK.
