8 Nights on Star Explorer

Discover a different side of the Mediterranean, with this itinerary that offers a perfect combination of small towns and large, major attractions and new discoveries. Learn to cook authentic Croatian dishes or have a favorite vintage at a Sicilian winery. Discover gems like Preveza and Crotone  – small towns that give you access to a unique Vlatch culture and one of the most beautiful medieval villages in Italy . From Crotone, discover Castello Aragonese located in nearby Le Castella or Santa Severina, one of the most beautiful ancient villages in Italy. Preveza serves as the gateway to multiple archaeological sites, including the ancient city of Nikopolis. Transit the narrow Corinth Canal to Itea and visit the UNESCO site of Delphi. Take your time and explore the Acropolis, Pompeii, the Sistine Chapel and Corfu’s Old Town. Spend the night in Catania with a view of Mt. Etna.

No other sea approach in the Adriatic raises goose bumps like Venice, a small ship exclusive where the entire city and its lagoon are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On your luxurious home-away-from home, you arrive already equipped with a sense of what it's like to live in the city that's neither land nor water. Add your own sigh to the Bridge of Sighs, sip a spritz al bitter as you plot your agenda, and let the water taxis do your navigating unless you don't mind getting lost. Not such a bad prospect, with serendipitous discoveries around every corner.

Something here will capture your heart. A Roman amphitheater, 9th century churches, and museums packed with Byzantine-era artworks crowd the peninsula that tidily contains the Old Town. It's a tempting way to spend the day for sure. While away the day listening to Zadar's giant Sea Organ, a haunting musical improv performed by the surging Adriatic or share a bench with a sun-drunk cat as you bite into a truffle.

While larger ships must pass by, we anchor right beyond the famous walled city so you can admire its beauty with every glance. Tender ashore and step right into Old Town, a UNESCO site where no cars are allowed, just eons of history. Capture the exhilarating views on your camera - and in your memory. End your day at the Buza Café (if you can find it) watching bold divers leap off the cliffs into the crystalline sea.

The cobblestone streets of Messina, Sicily, are the perfect launching point for an optional visit to nearby Taormina. Stroll along flower-filled streets in search of a delightful lunch or an artist's palette of colorful gelati. The ancient Greek Theater is an ideal place to sit back and admire shimmering waters below and Mount Etna, languidly smoking in the distance.
