Portofino
This beautiful coastal town is idyllically situated on a harbour, and is thus one of the world's favoured yachting locales. A little parish church of San Giorgio, built on the site of a sanctuary that Roman soldiers dedicated to the Persian god Mithras, offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the port and the bay.

Catania Sicily

A wonderful combination of the modern and ancient, Catanias citizens tap into the black lava from Etna to grow rich vineyards for unique wines you can enjoy during your Sicily cruise.

With a Montenegro cruise, you can explore the attractions inside Kotors fortified Old City, one of the Mediterraneans best-preserved medieval towns. Dont miss the Cathedral of St. Tryphon, an ornate church first consecrated in 1166. Then, scale St. Johns Fortress ? the hilltop fortifications, dating back to the 6th century, offer the best views of the city, the harbor and the surrounding mountains.

Dubrovnik
Croatia's seaside city is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Europe. Attractions include a 14th-century Franciscan monastery, the Cathedral and the Gothic Rector's Palace. Within the ancient fortifications is a labyrinth of narrow alleyways and a striking Renaissance boulevard called the Stradun.
