Two voyages combine Greece and Italy’s southern coast. The Aug. 9, 10-night cruise sails from Civitavecchia to Piraeus and connects the Amalfi Coast, Sicily and Greece, with two nights in Positano, Italy, while the Sept. 7, 11-night voyage sails from Piraeus to Malta and focuses on the Greek Isles and Sicily. The Sept. 18 voyage that departs Malta combines the Balearic Islands with Sardinia, calls at Tunis, Tunisia; and concludes with an overnight at Málaga.

Travelers can also choose between two Greece and Dalmatian Coast voyages. They alternate departures from Piraeus or Venice, transit the Corinth Canal and call at the UNESCO World Heritage destinations of Kotor, Montenegro, and Dubrovnik and Hvar, Croatia.
