Immersive History & UNESCO World Heritage Sites
Step back in time as you sail between the cradles of civilization. The Mediterranean is home to an unparalleled density of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. History buffs can wander through the preserved streets of Pompeii, marvel at the architectural genius of Rome’s Colosseum, or explore the Acropolis in Athens. Our cruises are designed to give you ample time in port to experience the stories and legends that shaped the modern world.
Here are some of the historical and cultural experiences the Mediterranean offers:
- Discover what’s left of the city frozen in time – Pompeii – and learn more about the catastrophic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius that buried the site under metres of ash and pumice.
- Watch a Flamenco folk dance performance or celebrate the La Tomatina Festival with the locals in Spain.
- Breeze through the fjord-like channel that leads to Kotor, a fortified town in Montenegro that’s listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
