Explore this magnificent ship’s many amenities today.
Friday, June 6 — Cannes/ Monte Carlo, France
Basking on the French Riviera between charming seaside villages and those of the Alps, Cannes is the resort of choice for royalty and many of the word's brightest luminaries of business and the arts.
Saturday, June 7 — Florence/ Pisa, Italy
Known as the birthplace of the Renaissance, Florence is where history and art shake hands.
The famous Leaning Tower in Pisa is located in the Field of Miracles, which is no surprise since the tower is still leaning (14 1/2 feet since 1370).
Sunday, June 8 — Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Settled in 108 A.D. by Emperor Trajan, Civitavecchia has since served as a gateway to the capital of the Empire, Rome. Once the center of the ancient world, Rome is still considered by many to reign over all other European destinations. Marvel at Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel’s painted ceilings, or visit a monument to both size and faith, St. Peter’s Basilica, the largest church ever built.
Monday, June 9 — Naples/ Capri, Italy
With spectacular scenery that attracts artists from around the world, Naples is located on the southern coast of Italy. You can take a tour to the ruins of Pompeii or shop the many boutiques of Sorrento.

Enjoy some fun in the sun or the Summit’s vast entertainment and amenities options. Tomorrow we’ll be in the ancient city of Athens!
Dubrovnik's main street
Wednesday, June 11 — Athens (Piraeus), Greece
Greece’s largest seaport, Piraeus, is where your adventure in Athens begins. Athens is now the world’s leading archaeological playground with the towering columns of the Parthenon and other countless classic sculptures, museums and Athenian art abounding.
Thursday, June 12 — Santorini, Greece
Santorini is where you will find whitewashed houses accented by roofs of the bluest blue - there’s no doubt that azure waters of the Aegean have served as creative inspiration and make this stop on our cruise truly picturesque.
Friday, June 13 — At sea!
Saturday, June 14 — Dubrovnik, Croatia
Resting on the Dalmation Coast for some 1,300 years, this charming little town of Dubrovnik is where you can pass through Old Town’s stone walls into the breathtaking medieval world of Stari Grad. Marble-paved squares, monasteries and fountains are just a few of the antiquities still standing just as they were over a thousand years ago.
Sunday, June 15 — Venice, Italy
The romantic, beautiful city of Venice also happens to be one of the most unusual. Venice is made up of over 120 islands in the Adriatic Sea. A good way to see Venice is the classic gondola ride.

We end our cruise in Venice where we will board flights for home, remembering the unique and remarkable experiences we enjoyed in Europe!
