Mediterranean Gems: Southern Italy and Sicily aboard Sea Cloud on Sea Cloud
Mediterranean Gems: From Dubrovnik to Naples
Leave the fast-paced, modern world behind
Beginning in the enchanting Croatian city of Dubrovnik, take one of our Dubrovnik to Naples cruises on the alluring Sea Cloud and wind your way down the southern part of Italy’s “boot”, calling on vibrant and welcoming places steeped in ancient history. Marvel at ornate cathedrals and remarkable baroque buildings, explore great sites of antiquity—from renowned Pompeii to the less-visited Greek temples of Paestum—and meander through unspoiled clifftop towns, soaking up breathtaking views. Plus, with a little luck witness the orange glow of eruptions from the Stromboli volcano.
