7 Night cruise departing roundtrip from Nice onboard Royal Clipper.

Highlights of this cruise:

Nice, France
Nice seduces with its enchanting mix of Mediterranean glamour and sun-drenched beaches. Stroll along the famous Promenade des Anglais, explore the historic charm of Vieux Nice with its colourful alleyways and bustling markets, and savour delicious cuisine. With its mild year-round climate, Nice offers the perfect escape where French elegance meets natural beauty.

Lerici, Italy
It was in the Villa Magni near Lerici that Percy Bysshe Shelley spent his last happy days before sailing his small boat on its stormy fatal voyage on July 8, 1822. Lord Byron, another Lerici literary resident, once swam across what is now called the “Golfo dei Poeti.” The small fishing villages of San Terenzo, Tellaro and Fiascherino and Montemarcello are similar to the more famous Cinque Terre.

Portoferraio, Elba,Italy
From his villa in Portoferraio, Napoleon, the exiled Emperor of France, looked out over the waiting ships in the harbour and dreamed of returning to glory. Enjoy a local vineyard tour, and near Portoferraio, discover the remains of an ancient Etruscan civilisation.

Bonifacio, Corsica - France
Bonifacio's almost land-locked harbour is one of the most dramatic, totally protected harbours. It is a bustling port with excellent seafood restaurants, and a modern marina. The ancient citadel town is perched high atop a seemingly impenetrable cliff.

St. Tropez, France
It is said that the most spectacular way to approach the exquisite harbour of St. Tropez is by sea. St. Tropez is a people-watcher's paradise, so you will also want to explore her famous beaches, bistros and bars. The appropriately named Tahiti Plage is where topless sun tanning started, and whether you prefer to take it off or take it all in, there's always plenty to see in St. Tropez.
