Description

Roundtrip from Civitavecchia, this voyage links the historic shores of Italy with the rugged beauty of Corsica. In Bastia, narrow streets and a lively harbour reflect the island’s maritime character, followed by Calvi, crowned by its hilltop citadel and framed by mountainous landscapes. Returning to Italy, Lerici recalls the legacy of Romantic poets along the Gulf of Poets, while Portoferraio reveals Napoleonic history and traces of ancient Etruscan civilisation before the journey concludes back in Civitavecchia.

Itinerary



Day 1 - Day 1 Civitavecchia (Port for Rome), Italy
Civitavecchia is an important seaport serving Rome, the Italian capital. As a key entry point for Mediterranean cruises and ferries crossing the Tyrrhenian Sea, Civitavecchia offers a gateway to a variety of destinations in Italy and beyond. The city is 70 km from Rome and 62 km to Fiumiccino airport.
Day 2 - Day 2 Bastia - Corsica, France
 The most important town in northern Corsica, with its narrow streets, colourful buildings and lively Mediterranean atmosphere, Bastia offers a unique blend of traditional charm and urban dynamism. Its harbour is the historic heart of the city, where traditional boats rub shoulders with numerous restaurants and cafés.
Day 3 - Day 3 Calvi - Corsica, France
 Napoleon once said that he could recognise his native island blindfolded thanks to the wonderful scent of the maquis. When you arrive in Corsica by sea, that's the first thing you notice. The second is the wild, mountainous landscape... and when you see a medieval citadel overlooking a marina, you'll know you've arrived in Calvi!
Day 4 - Day 4 Lerici, Italy
 It was in the Villa Magni near Lerici that Percy Bysshe Shelley spent his last happy days before sailing his small boat on its stormy fatal voyage on July 8, 1822. Lord Byron, another Lerici literary resident, once swam across what is now called the “Golfo dei Poeti.â€ The small fishing villages of San Terenzo, Tellaro and Fiascherino and Montemarcello are similar to the more famous Cinque Terre.
Day 5 - Day 5 Portoferraio - Elba, Italy
 From his villa in Portoferraio, Napoleon, the exiled Emperor of France, looked out over the waiting ships in the harbour and dreamed of returning to glory. Enjoy a local vineyard tour, and near Portoferraio, discover the remains of an ancient Etruscan civilisation.
Day 6 - Day 6 Civitavecchia (Port for Rome), Italy
 Civitavecchia is an important seaport serving Rome, the Italian capital. As a key entry point for Mediterranean cruises and ferries crossing the Tyrrhenian Sea, Civitavecchia offers a gateway to a variety of destinations in Italy and beyond. The city is 70 km from Rome and 62 km to Fiumiccino airport.
