10 nights from Barcelona (Spain) with Seven Seas Grandeur

Toulon

Toulon is a French city located about 50 km in the south-east of Marseilles. Thaks to its port, it is an important commercial center and a strategic city. The port is surrounded by a beautiful waterfront with several parks where you can admire the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea.
Also known as the western border of the Côte d'Azur, Toulon is a beautiful city full of contrasts, located close to the Italian border and its coastline is washed by the Mediterranean Sea.

As France's main military port, it has a large part of the nuclear submarine fleet and famous boat such as the Charles-de-Gaulle.
The center of the city, near the port, has very narrow streets leading to large streets that often seem mysterious. Its main monuments include the Place Puget with its dolphin fountain built in 1780, the Place Raimu and the beautiful opera house, one of the most famous in France. Fashinating for its history, it is the only fortress called Royale. In its picturesque Provençal street markets, you will find a variety of products of all kinds.

A nice and funny way to explore the city is to take the tourist train that takes passengers on a journey that cross both the old and the new parts of the town.
Toulon has a privileged position because it is located between the sea and the mountains. Its population is hospitable and in winter the place becomes a resort, while in summer you can enjoy one of the most beautiful beaches in the region, the Plage du Mourillon.
There are many other things to do and visit in this resort, for instance, the Museum of Fine Arts, the Natural History Museum and the Museum of Asian Arts, as well as churches, beaches or Mont Faron, with its 584 metres in height and an incredible view.

Civitavecchia is a town in the heart of Lazio. It is a small, sleepy town that overlooks the sea from behind the busy and chaotic commercial port.

Spreading out along the coast, the town is situated between the Mignon river to the north and the Marangone river to the south.
Civitavecchia is a port town in the heart of Italy, in the province of Rome, 80 kilometres northwest of the capital.

The romantic Naples, distant two hours in the south of Rome, is one of the largest and most beautiful art cities in the Mediterranean. In addition to its beautiful scenery, the city owes its well-deserved fame to the beautiful historic centre, which was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1995.
Naples is rich in monuments and squares, for example the large and famous Piazza del Plebiscito. Do not miss the residential district of Posillipo or the characteristic small streets of the historic center.

Athens

Many still think of Athens as an ancient city that thrived two and a half thousand years ago. Its symbol is the mighty Acropolis, which dominates almost every view and the itinerary of every visitor, and it is crowned by the iconic Parthenon, which rises above the city, overlooking the sprawling and evolving modern metropolis.

Its symbol is the mighty Acropolis, which dominates almost every view and the itinerary of every visitor, and it is crowned by the iconic Parthenon, which rises above the city, overlooking the sprawling and evolving modern metropolis.

Perhaps the most significant change is in the historical centre, which is almost unrecognisable since cars have been banned. This has liberated the area with the most significant archaeological sites, creating the longest, and undoubtedly one of the most splendid, pedestrianised zones in Europe. This huge archaeological park has brought past and present together, returning the cultural and social life of the city to the area around the ancient monuments and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Athens remains a city of contradictions; it is both frustrating and seductive. It is the oldest city in Europe, yet still in a state of transition. It is one of the safest and most vibrant European cities - an intoxicating mix of grunge and grace with an undeniably urban soul.
