25 Nights on Wind Spirit
Sail a carefully paced route that links the French and Italian Rivieras with the historic ports of the Adriatic, allowing the Mediterranean to unfold gradually over time. Begin with two full days in Barcelona, ideal for exploring neighborhoods, markets, and evening dining before heading east. Along the Riviera, walk ashore in Nice and Genoa, then linger overnight in Livorno with time for Florence and Pisa. Calls in Rome, Naples, and Messina trace Italy’s cultural spine, with an overnight in Naples opening access to Pompeii, Capri, and the city after dark. The voyage then shifts into the Adriatic, featuring extended stays in Dubrovnik and Zadar, followed by overnights in Venice that frame both arrival and departure through the lagoon. Between regions, leisurely sea days offer time to enjoy onboard dining, open decks, and the relaxed pace of small-ship sailing.

In this enchanting city the past and present intersect in perfect harmony. Casually intermingled among ancient ruins and majestic cathedrals are the trappings of a modern metropolis: Skyscrapers,cafes, boutiques selling designer footwear. But of course what you seek first in the heart of Rome is its breathtaking history. A good place to begin is the Vatican, with its Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. Works by Bernini, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and Raphael are just a few of those on display, any one of which is worth hours of contemplation. Then the ancient ruins-Colosseum, Forum, Circus Maximus. And of course the Trevi Fountain for the obligatory coins promising your return to the Eternal City.
Less than two hours from Rome, the port city of Naples was founded by the Greeks, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is unlike any other city in Italy. It is a busy, bustling place where mini-operettas take place on street corners, Vespas scoot across the pedestrian piazzas, the small narrow streets are hanging thick with laundry and graffiti is everywhere. But Naples is full of archaeological treasures that are among the most impressive in the world, including breathtaking frescoes and sculptures. Its beautiful palaces, castles and churches make Rome look provincial. And the food in Naples is among the best you'll find in Italy, serving decadent pizza, pasta, coffee, and seafood dishes you'll never forget.
