Program and itinerary of this cruise
From the splendid Maltese capital to the pearl of the French Riviera, set sail on an 11-day cruise in the Mediterranean Sea. Aboard Le Dumont-d’Urville, discover the Isle of Beauty, the Italian shores and Malta during an unforgettable trip. Throughout your journey, you will benefit from an excursion included per person per port of call, to choose from a selection offered by PONANT. During this cruise, dive into the teeming waters of the wild Revellata peninsula at the gates of Calvi, discover the Villa Dei Mulini, Napoleon’s former winter residence in Portoferraio, and immerse yourself in gladiatorial history in the Neapolis Archaeological Park, in Syracuse. The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab). The diversity of experiences on offer promises you intense and varied moments (to discover the full range of excursions, go to the itinerary tab). From Valletta, you will head for Gozo, an unspoiled island that is home to a megalithic site listed with UNESCO. Explore the island, famous for its wines, and its spectacular scenery, from the endless turquoise sea to the dreamlike decor of the salt marshes. Next, Southern Italy promises suspended moments where the beauty of the shores combines with the beauty of its historical remnants, which remain fascinating. In Syracuse, the Sicilian soul unfolds across the island of Ortygia - the oldest part of the city -, a maze of small streets dotted with churches, palaces, ancient remnants, sheltering a majestic cathedral in its very heart. Your ship will stop at Porto Ercole, a charming Tuscan village with colourful houses, on the Monte Argentario peninsula. Here, you will have the possibility of meeting fisherman from the Orbetello Lagoon as well as local producers. The peninsula’s rolling and lush landscapes will also provide you with opportunities for magnificent outings. After a port of call on the Tuscan island of Giglio, you will visit Portofino. Built in a natural harbour protected by a pine forest, it is a picturesque and lively port that has successfully retained its authenticity and traditions. Portoferraio, a small corner of paradise on the island of Elba, where Napoleon spent many days in exile will be your next port of call. The Cap Corse peninsula will then reveal itself a little further south. At the foot of the mountains and the Agriates desert, the beauty of the landscapes gives Saint-Florent picture-postcard appearance. You will finally set sail for Calvi in the heart of the Balagne region. Between steep peaks and sublime beaches with turquoise waters, you will experience a wild and authentic Corsica. Your cruise will end in Nice, capital of the French Riviera.
