7 Nights on Star Legend

Scenic vineyards, dizzying Amalfi coastal vistas, timeless village piazzas, and ancient Roman ruins make perfect backdrops for this cruise along Italy's coast to the isles of Corsica and Sardinia. Relax on a sandy beach outside Ponza or escape on a boat tour to the clear turquoise waters and sundrenched shorelines punctuated by shadowy coastal grottos. Sip the sweetness of local Amalfi limoncello and tour the haunting ruins of Pompeii. Cycle past geologic wonders on Lipari - the largest and most storied of the seven Aeolian isles - then pause at an Italian hamlet for liquid refreshments and light bites. Luxuriate along the Emerald Coast near Porto Cervo, Sardinia's luxurious enclave for reclusive yacht owners and Europe's most expensive real estate. Inspect the dramatic vistas of Bonifacio, Corsica's oldest settlement known for its cliffs, medieval citadel, and stunning coastal views.

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.
