Destinations That Enrich the Experience
One of the highlights of a lifestyle cruise is exploring the destinations on-shore.

Each stop on a lifestyle cruise is chosen to create unforgettable memories. Ports like Barcelona, Monte Carlo, Florence, Portofino, and Mallorca each offer their own unique charm and allure.
