Iberian Immersion
Traverse the western Mediterranean across the Spanish, Italian, and French Rivieras on this ten-night journey with Oceania Cruises. Embark in glamorous Monte Carlo and set sail for the bustling seaport of Toulon, with easy access to the charismatic hilltop villages and picturesque countryside of Provence. Then sail down the coast of Spain. See Gaudí’s imaginative architecture and feast your senses at La Boqueria market in Barcelona. Enjoy Concepción Castle’s hilltop views and visit the Roman Theater—dating from the first century BC—in legendary Cartagena. Refuel at the lively tapas bars and take in the large collection of unusual modernisme architecture in Melilla, Spain’s outpost on Africa’s northern shores. And, in the lively port of Alicante, catch views of the parks and waterfront boulevard from the high towers of Santa Bárbara Castle. Sail across the sea to Malta, where Valletta boasts one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world. And cruise to Catania for a visit to upmarket boutiques and bistros in Sicily’s youthful university town. Before you bid farewell to Riviera in Rome, cruise to Naples for a taste of mouthwatering southern Italian cuisine and access to the storied ruins of Pompeii.
