Marseille (Provence) to Civitavecchia (Rome)
Embark on a voyage that calls at some of the Mediterranean’s most intriguing island destinations. This odyssey begins in the cosmopolitan city of Marseille in France, before sailing to the pretty town of Menton on the French Riviera. Next on our list is Genoa, on Italy's mainland, where the grand architecture is evidence of the port's former glory days as an influential maritime power. Livorno opens up the possibility of trips to Florence, Pisa and the vineyards of Chianti, before we continue south. Little-visited Portoferraio in Elba and Olbia in Sardinia promise great beaches and fantastic food, as does Porto Santo Stefano on the south coast of Tuscany, a holiday hotspot for in-the-know Italians. All good things must come to an end, in our case in Rome.
