Discover the fascinating mix of cultures left in the wake of ancient empires while traveling across the historic Mediterranean and Tyrrhenian seas to the resplendent islands of Malta, Sicily and Capri and Italy’s southern coast during the best time of year.

Cruise for seven nights aboard the exclusively chartered, 60-passenger m.y. Variety Voyager on this once-in-a-lifetime voyage featuring nine UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the Megalithic temples of Malta, the superbly excavated town of Pompeii, the ancient Greek and Roman treasures of Sicily and the gorgeous Amalfi Coast. In ancient Mediterranean port towns bearing influences of a seemingly endless roll call of empires, walk in the way of the Phoenicians, along the shores where St. Paul was shipwrecked, and down Roman avenues and Byzantine lanes. Walk through the storied town of Taormina in the shadow of Mt. Etna; see one of the world’s best-preserved ancient Greek theaters in Siracusa; and explore the majestic Valley of Temples in Agrigento, Sicily.
