Itinerary

1

Nice

Welcome to France and the bustling city of Nice, one of the most famous ports of the Côte d’Azur. It offers an intriguing blend of French and Italian cultures. 

You’ll be welcomed on board your Discovery Yacht by the Captain and the crew, meet your butler and settle into your spacious verandah suite. 

Enjoy a late departure from Nice tonight with the opportunity for a sunset stroll along the grand Promenade des Anglais, arguably the most famous stretch of seafront in France or toast to the start of your journey of wonder at the Sky Deck Bar. 

Please book your flight to arrive into Nice prior to 02:00 PM.

Santa Margherita Ligure

You’ll call into two neighbouring ports today, tucked into a quiet curve of the Ligurian Coast. Santa Margherita is one of the more relaxed towns along the Italian Riviera. Pretty pastel buildings line the shore, hundreds of fishing boats sit in the marina, and the imposing 16th century castle looks out over it all. 

At the end of the peninsula is Portofino, one of Italy’s most famous resort towns. There’s ample time to explore luxury boutiques, swim in the turquoise bay, and look out for celebrities at the exclusive bars. 

Freechoice:
Santa Margherita walking tour: Stroll along the sea front promenade with its brightly coloured houses. Then discover the Basilica di Santa Margherita d'Antiochia. 

Hiking to Portofino and join the ship in Portofino: From the village of Nozarego, hike along a Mediterranean clifftop path to Portofino, with a picnic along the way. 

Brown Castle visit: Explore Brown Castle in Portofino before continuing to the San Giorgio church, a 12th century marvel rebuilt in 1950. 

Portofino walking tour with gelato: Take a guided tour of Portofino, visit the San Giorgio church and stop at the Portofino village for a delicious gelato.

Portofino

One of the most photographed villages along the coast, with a decidedly romantic and affluent aura, Portofino has long been a popular destination for the rich and famous. Once an ancient Roman colony and taken by the Republic of Genoa in 1229, it’s also been ruled by the French, English, Spanish, and Austrians, as well as by marauding bands of 16th-century pirates. Elite British tourists first flocked to the lush harbor in the mid-1800s. Some of Europe's wealthiest drop anchor in Portofino in summer, but they stay out of sight by day, appearing in the evening after buses and boats have carried off the day-trippers.There's not actually much to do in Portofino other than stroll around the wee harbor, see the castle, walk to Punta del Capo, browse at the pricey boutiques, and sip a coffee while people-watching. However, weaving through picture-perfect cliffside gardens and gazing at yachts framed by the sapphire Ligurian Sea and the cliffs of Santa Margherita can make for quite a relaxing afternoon. There are also several tame, photo-friendly hikes into the hills to nearby villages.Unless you're traveling on a deluxe budget, you may want to stay in Camogli or Santa Margherita Ligure rather than at one of Portofino's few very expensive hotels. Restaurants and cafés are good but also pricey (don't expect to have a beer here for much under €10).

Carrara

Marina di Carrara sits on the coast, tucked between sandy beaches and forested mountains. Today, you can set up in a beach chair beneath a striped umbrella at one of the many beach clubs that line the shore. Or take a shuttle into Carrara town, where everything from fountains to cathedrals to pavements are made from their signature stone. With a late departure, make the most of the town’s western aspect and watch the sunset over the water from your private verandah and preffered drink in hand. 

Freechoice:
4x4 Marble Quarries Exploration: Visit the Apuane Mountains and trek to its marble quarries, where you’ll learn about the extraction and treatment process for Carrara marble. Enjoy lunch with Lardo di Colonnata crouton.

Livorno

At the third-largest port in Italy, Scenic Eclipse will be a highlight between the giant freighters and passenger cruise ships when it pulls into Livorno this morning. This colourful port town is one of Italy’s most cosmopolitan cities. It’s also the gateway to the spectacular Tuscany region. 

Wander through the 17th-century Venezia Nuova, threaded with canals and connected by bridges.

Saint-Tropez

Saint-Tropez, once a quiet fishing village, became a glamorous travel destination in the 1950s, thanks to Brigitte Bardot and the film And God Created Woman. Today, it still retains all the glitz and glamour, alongside glittering blue seas, stunning beaches and a bohemian art scene. Stroll along the cobblestone streets of the old fishing quarter of La Ponche, and revel in the abstract architecture and sunlit landscapes that inspired great artists and filmmakers. With a late departure, see Saint-Tropez come alive after dark.
