Board Le Dumont D’Urville for a Mediterranean cruise from the French Riviera to Croatia to discover some of the cultural gems and natural treasures of the Tyrrhenian, Ionian and Adriatic seas. During this extraordinary 8-day odyssey, immerse yourself in the history and secrets of the Mediterranean shores.
After setting sail from Nice, you will cruise eastward to reach Livorno, a port city famous for its Renaissance fortifications. The Little Venice district, as it is known, offers a picturesque setting in which to enjoy fish and seafood.
You will then stop at Portoferraio, a small corner of paradise on the island of Elba, where Napoleon spend many days in exile.
Then your ship will sail to the Amalfi Coast, the jewel of southern Italy, where you will discover Salerno, a beautiful little town famous for its Duomo.
Then you will follow the Italian coast to Civitavecchia, with its dolce vita atmosphere, from where you can discover the Italian heritage and visit Rome.

In Puglia, Gallipoli, meaning “beautiful town” in Greek, reveals its Hellenic origins and offers up its singular atmosphere, where life is good.
Le Dumont D’Urville will then reach Montenegro after sailing in the Bay of Kotor, which is strangely reminiscent of Norwegian fjords. The city of Kotor nestles in a bay surrounded by wooded mountains. Its old town is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its medieval architecture.
The Pearl of the Adriatic, the former maritime republic known as Ragusa, concludes this journey through time, unveiling a new face among the many facets of Dalmatia. Dubrovnik’s slogan is “Freedom is not for sale, not even for all the gold of this world.”
