Itinerary

Your luxurious yacht cruise begins in Civitavecchia, where you'll be transferred to your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht and embark on your discovery of the Western Mediterranean. DiscoverMORE City tour of Rome* (extra expense) (D)

The striking citadel heralds your introduction to Bonifacio. Established in 833 BC, this charming Corsican port provides stunning views from its ancient fortress that, on a clear day, stretch all the way to Sardinia. (B/L/D)

On the western coast of Northern Sardinia, Alghero stands out for its coves and small bays with white sandy beaches merging to a crystalline sea. The mild climate combined with the delicate aromas of the Mediterranean vegetation make this town one of the highlights of the journey. (B/L/D)

The second-largest city of the Balearic Islands (and the capital of Menorca), Mahón, is yours to explore today. With a wealth of prehistoric structures that fuse with the cultural influence left by the 18th century British occupation, this tropical paradise will certainly leave you awed. (B/L/D)

A delightful Mediterranean island, Ibiza has made a reputation for itself as a party destination. Beyond the festive façade though, one will encounter many little hidden gems, such as the laid-back hippy atmosphere of its street markets, the mesmerizing Dalt Vila, and natural beauty of the coastline. (B/L/D)

Cartagena, in the Mediterranean's Costa Cálida, was considered to be one of the most important naval ports in Spain until the 18th century. This portside town has historically been inhabited by several cultures who have left their mark on its heritage. From its Roman Amphitheatre to the Torre Ciega, there is no shortage of sights to amaze you. (B/L/D)

Almeria is home of one of the best kept coastal secrets in Spain. This Andalusian town has spectacular and unspoilt beach stretches all along all its coastline. Particularly worth a visit is the Cabo de Gata Natural Park, where the virginal playas backing onto terrain studded with cacti, dunes, and mountains provide a unique atmosphere. (B/L/D)

Today you are docked in Malaga. Here you will find many impressive historic sights forming part of this beautiful city, including the Alcazaba which is one of the largest Arab fortresses in Andalusia, and Gibralfaro Castle, offering the best views over the city. (B/L/D)

The Andalusian coastal town of Cádiz is your stop for the day. Often referred to as the ‘City of the Watchtowers', Cádiz has been a prominent trading port for centuries. With a rich cultural, historical, and architectural heritage, the city is filled with landmarks, antique quarters and lush gardens that will capture all your senses. (B/L/D)

Today we will foray into Portugal with a visit to beautiful Portimão. From its historic centre embellished by a distinctively Portuguese ambience to its plazas filled with open-air cafés, and to Praia da Rocha, there is something here for everyone. (B/L/D)

Your time aboard your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht comes to an end in Lisbon. After bidding farewell to the crew and your fellow guests, you will be transferred to the airport for your return flight home. *This DiscoverMORE should be pre-booked and is only available in conjunction with pre- or post-cruise accommodation. For guests not staying at our preferred hotel, your own arrangements will need to be made to reach the meeting point of the DiscoverMORE experience.
