YACHT CRUISES: MIDDLE EAST • ADRIATIC SEA • ITALY YACHT CRUISES IN COMFORT & STYLE
ISRAEL, EGYPT, AND JORDAN . Mediterranean Sea, Red Sea, and Dead Sea. Three countries and three oceans on one cruise aboard the exclusively chartered yacht Harmony V. We’ve combined all highlights of the Maritime Silk Road in this one voyage across the Middle East to create enchantment straight out of the Arabian Nights fairy tales: the magic of Jerusalem’s and Cairo’s historic quarters, the verdant Nile Valley with the Pyramids of Giza and the Valley of the Kings, St. Catherine’s Monastery and the Mountain of Moses on the Sinai Peninsula, pink dunes in the Wadi Rum and the mysterious city of Petra.
CROATIA, MONTENEGRO, AND ALBANIA —the small motor yacht Callisto
takes guests to the last secrets of the European continent. Its journey into the unknown is framed by Montenegro’s black mountains, the beauty of the fjord-like Bay of Kotor, and Dubrovnik, the cosmopolitan star of the Adriatic Sea. But the cruise’s biggest surprise is an unexpected exotic state in the middle of Europe: Albania, isolated for decades under the rule of dictator Enver Hoxha. On its untouched coasts, guests enjoy a time-traveling adventure between Greek antiquity and the Ottoman Empire—with all the amenities of modern life.
On its journey to the most magnificent treasures of the Mediterranean Sea, the exclusively chartered small yacht Harmony G reveals the magic of SOUTHERN ITALY. Guests discover three gorgeous provinces in one trip: Puglia, Calabria, and Sicily. Among the main attractions are not only the classic highlights of the Mezzogiorno such as Lecce, Otranto, Syracuse, Agrigento, and Taormina but also the fireworks of two active volcanoes, Etna and Stromboli, the dreamy bay of San Vito Lo Capo, where Italy feels like the Caribbean, the Stone Age necropolis of Pantalica, and the islets of Levanzo and Panaraea.
