Overview
A cruise in partnership with the Pinault Collection - Palazzo Grassi. During the cruise, enjoy fascinating lectures given by Pinault Collection experts. In Venice, the culmination of your journey, discover the contemporary art Biennale and benefit in particular from private visits of the Palazzo Grassi and the Punta della Dogana, accompanied by Pinault Collection experts. Set sail to discover the cultural and artistic jewels of the Ionian and Adriatic Seas with Ponant. During this 9-day cruise, Le Bougainville will take you to Malta, Montenegro, Croatia and Italy.
Your ship will leave...read more Valletta, the capital of Malta and former stronghold of the Knights of the Order of Malta and set sail towards Sicily. Then, you will set sail for Syracuse, one of the most prestigious Sicilian cities, whose monuments are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage. Next, you will visit the stunning Puglia region in Italy when the ship calls at Otranto. Do not miss a visit to Lecce: Its lavish baroque monuments have earned it the nickname "Florence of the South of Italy". You will then head to the aptly named "Pearl of the Adriatic", Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Surrounded by medieval ramparts, its terracotta-tiled roofs, its palaces, cloisters and fountains are bound to impress you and will plunge you into the heart of Croatian history.
Your ship will then set sail towards Montenegro, for an unforgettable cruise in the Bay of Kotor. This impressive gap between two mountain ranges is home to a veritable inland lake with a magical atmosphere; the medieval city of Kotor and its many historical monuments are its jewels. You will first stop in Hvar, the most famous and attractive of the Adriatic islands. Ringed by ramparts, the town has many remarkable monuments including its elegant cathedral, old arsenal and aristocratic palaces. As a grand finale, your voyage will draw an end in Venice the Serenissima and its lagoon. Piazza San Marco, the Doge's Palace, the Grand Canal and the palaces along the canals will be your last stops on an unforgettable cruise.
