Additional Information

Day 1 (AUG 9): Lisbon, Portugal

Depart @ 5:00pm

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is a wealth of sights, tastes and sounds. An ensemble of neighborhoods both old and new, it’s a city full of history, culture and tradition.

Day 2 (AUG 10): Day at Sea

Day 3 (AUG 11): Alicante, Spain

Fresh sea breezes, mountain backdrops and vibrant locals have made this magical city a must-see for both international tourists and residents of Spain alike. It's easy to slip into the local rhythm. Spend your day exploring everything from the Old Town and Santa Bárbara Castle to the trendiest of Spanish stores.

Day 4 (AUG 12): Solar Eclipse

Cruising Only

Cruise the Mediterranean under a sky transformed by the 2026 solar eclipse. Near the coast of Spain, the sun’s light fades in an unforgettable display of natural drama. With uninterrupted views from the ship and the warm breeze of southern Europe, this rare moment becomes an extraordinary highlight of your journey.

Days 5-6 (AUG 13-14): Barcelona, Spain

On the northeast coast of Spain, overlooking the Mediterranean, Barcelona is a vibrant port city, packed with centuries of iconic art and architecture—Gaudí and Picasso both called it home—and lined with sunny white-sand beaches. Explore the Catalan capital's tourist attractions and historic neighborhoods, Modernisme and world-renowned art museums, galleries and local crafts shops.

Day 7 (AUG 15): Day at Sea

Day 8 (AUG 16): Ajaccio, Corsica, France

Most famous as the birthplace of a diminutive, strong-willed local who went on to become known simply as Napoleon, the port of Ajaccio is Corsica’s small, walkable capital. The roots of this city on the island’s western coast are said to go back to another strong man, the Greek hero Ajax.

Only 200 miles from its parent France, you might as well be in another country on Corsica, where everything from the food to the language is unique.

Day 9 (AUG 17): Rome, italy

When you embark on a cruise to Rome with Holland America Line you experience its bustling modernism along with its rich history. You can walk in the footsteps of emperors, have coffee in Renaissance piazzas and see contemporary art all in one afternoon.

Day 10 (AUG 18): Day at Sea

Day 11 (AUG 19): Bari (Puglia), Italy

Cruises to Bari take guests to the Puglia region in the heel of Italy’s boot. As the ship docks, take in views of the traditional harbor and the shimmering Adriatic. After you disembark, head to the old city, a maze of narrow alleyways lined with fruit stands, theaters and cafes. Getting lost is part of the experience.

Day 12 (AUG 20): Kotor, Montenegro

Cruising into the Bay of Kotor, you'll be wowed by the dramatic beauty of this coastal Montenegrin town. Dreamy seafront villages are set to a backdrop of mountains plummeting into the Adriatic Sea, while the stone labyrinth of the Old Town is filled with medieval architecture and historic monuments—as well as the narrowest street in the world.

Day 13 (AUG 21): Day at Sea

Day 14 (AUG 22): Athens, Greece

Arrive @ 7:00am

No modern metropolis is more steeped in myth than Athens, Greece. From the gritty port of Piraeus—gateway to Greece’s fabled isles—to the Parthenon—eternal symbol of Western civilization—Athens has attracted adventurers and classicists for centuries. This heritage is still very much alive for modern visitors sightseeing in Athens: ancient stadiums and temples dwell alongside apartment blocks, modern performances are staged in the marble amphitheaters where Greek drama was born and millennia-old monuments are scattered in the archaeological park that circles the Acropolis.
