Terracotta Horizons – Valletta, Dubrovnik & Split

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 10-night sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) on May 1, 2027 visits Livorno (Florence/Pisa), Ajaccio and Alghero, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. You finish in Trieste. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 8 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. The route threads through 5 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, France, Malta, Montenegro and Croatia. Valletta alone is worth the trip, A fortress city of honey-coloured stone. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 13 restaurants on Enchanted Princess, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 10 nights. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Civitavecchia (Rome) itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And May is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Worth booking. That's the short version.
