Star Collector: Embrace of the Mediterranean in Fall

Immerse yourself in the vibrant cultures of Greece, Italy and Spain on a fall cruise when it's more relaxed. Cross the Corinth Canal — so narrow you can almost touch the walls — into the heart of the Mediterranean. Visit small-ship destinations like Itea, gateway to the all-knowing Oracle of Delphi, and explore Italy's cultural history at Cagliari's Museo Archeologico Nazionale. Then, settle into the leisurely rhythm of the Spanish off-season when the streets are bustling with locals instead of tourists. Walk in the shadows of Gaudi's architectural splendors and sip decadent Spanish reds paired with savory tapas during an overnight in Barcelona. Prepare paella from regional ingredients at an exclusive cooking class hosted in Malaga, birthplace of Pablo Picasso and the warmest winter city in Europe.
