Itinerary

Welcome to Spain and the vibrant city of Barcelona, a cultural capital renowned for its innovative cuisine, architectural wonders, dynamic art scene, and buzzing nightlife that attracts travellers from across the globe.

Your journey begins the moment you step on board your next-generation Discovery Yacht, Scenic Ikon. Be warmly welcomed by the Captain and crew before your personal butler shows you to your luxurious suite. As the evening draws near, join your fellow guests on the open deck for a pre-dinner cocktail as you set sail into the Mediterranean. (D)

Whilst Ibiza is famed for its thriving party scene, there's far more to this island than meets the eye. Beyond the buzz, you'll find pristine beaches, lush nature reserves, ancient archaeological sites, and small villages seemingly untouched by time. Inland, limestone hills and lush pine forests shelter artisan producers crafting one-of-a-kind local delights.

Famed for its dazzling sunsets, Ibiza invites you to linger. With a late departure, sip a cocktail at the waterfront bar and watch the sky turn a blaze of orange and red. (B/L/D)

Palma, a popular resort city and capital of the Spanish island of Mallorca, is where history comes alive. Shaped by Romans, Moors and Catholics since 123 BC, the city's rich heritage unfolds across centuries. Wander the narrow, cobbled lanes of Palma's Casco Antiguo (Old Town), where elegant archways, grand historic palacios, medieval churches and picturesque plazas transport you to another time. From the soaring Santa Maria Cathedral to La Almudaina — a Moorish-style Arab fortress converted into a royal residence — and the unique circular Bellver Castle, Palma reveals a new layer of history at every corner. (B/L/D)

Known for its British-style Georgian houses and medieval streets lined with palaces, churches and fortresses, Mahón is truly Vella i Bella — ‘Old and Beautiful'. As the capital of laid-back Menorca, life here moves to the rhythm of the gentle waves that lap its shores. Wander through the historic old town, where every corner whispers of the island's rich past. With its charismatic centre and unhurried pace, Mahón offers a quiet charm that's all its own. (B/L/D)

Enjoy a relaxing day at sea on board your ultra-luxurious next-generation Discovery Yacht, where you can unwind on the deck, bask in the sun, and take in sweeping ocean views while enjoying the exceptional amenities on board.

This evening, indulge in a world-class dining experience on board, with every detail thoughtfully considered and every dish a moment to savour. (B/L/D)

Calvi, on the French island of Corsica, boasts a rich and storied history. Founded in the 13th century, its fiery medieval citadel still stands above red tiled roofs. A magnet for visitors since the 1920s, Calvi's moon-shaped bay features a golden, sandy beach framed by forested mountains on the horizon.

Today, Calvi has the feel of a chic resort on the French Riviera, with waterfront restaurants, luxury hotels, and multi-million-dollar yachts bobbing in the harbour. Stroll the alleys of the historic old town, walk the ramparts of the citadel, and visit the house said to be the birthplace of Christopher Columbus. (B/L/D)

One of Elba Island's oldest towns, Portoferraio traces its origins to ancient Greeks, though much of the modern town was built by the Medici in the 1500s. Brimming with Tuscan charm, it's a favourite for both beach-lovers and history buffs. Take a dip at Spiaggia di Capo Bianco, a northern beach scattered with small white pebbles and fronting impossibly clear water. Wander the historic streets to explore Palazzina dei Mulini, one of Napoleon's official residences during his exile here, the impressive Archaeological Museum, and the ruins of the Roman Villa della Linguella.

Relax with another late night in port and toast the sunset with a glass of Aleatico, a sweet red dessert wine and local delicacy. (B/L/D)

Perched on the scenic Monte Argentario peninsula in Tuscany, Porto Santo Stefano is a charming seaside town with a picturesque harbour and vibrant atmosphere. Known for its historic Spanish Fortress, Porto Santo Stefano invites you to wander winding lanes lined with pastel-coloured houses or simply relax while taking in sweeping views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. (B/L/D)

Arriving in Bonifacio is unforgettable — the town appears perched atop soaring limestone cliffs, offering breathtaking views over the Mediterranean. Step ashore to explore the atmospheric old town, where winding lanes, historic buildings, and relaxed Corsican charm await.

With another late departure here, you'll have ample time to enjoy panoramic vistas from the ancient citadel or stroll along the picturesque marina. Bonifacio promises a delightful blend of history, culture, and coastal beauty. (B/L/D)

This morning, you'll arrive in Porto Cervo, the dazzling heart of the spectacular Costa Smeralda. Built as a millionaire's playground by Prince Aga Khan in the 1960s, Porto Cervo exudes luxury — from high-end boutiques and stylish restaurants to glamorous nightclubs, world-class golf courses, tennis clubs, and hotels. (B/L/D)

Ponza charms with its captivating historic centre, narrow streets, colourful buildings, and lively atmosphere. Renowned for its exquisite seafood and natural beauty, the island is a paradise for food lovers and beachgoers alike, boasting stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters — a true Mediterranean gem. (B/L/D)

Your Signature Yacht Cruise concludes this morning in Civitavecchia, an ancient port dating back to the 2nd century and the gateway to Rome — the Eternal City, where timeless ruins and elaborate churches stand alongside bustling cafes and designer boutiques. Every corner whispers stories of empires long past.

After savouring a final breakfast on board, it will be time to disembark and commence your onward journey or return home, carrying cherished memories with you.
