Cultural ocean cruises

Our ocean cruises follow historic sea routes in the wake of ancient mariners and conquerers, aboard exclusively chartered vessels. We anchor off islands where ancient temples crown headlands, moor in harbours where medieval merchants built traded from busy warehouses and venture inland to coastal cities bountiful in archaeological and historical treasures.

From Bronze Age sites to Romanesque cathedrals, from Byzantine mosaics to Renaissance fortifications, our itineraries illustrate rich maritime legacies. Accompanied by leading experts who provide the context both aboard and onshore, our ocean cruises allow understanding and discovery not possible on a land-based tour.
