About this trip

We call this our Comprehensive tour of the Islands of the Mediterranean--Six Islands!!

September 17-October 28, 2027

Journey through the Mediterranean’s historic crossroads—Corsica, Sardinia, Malta, Sicily, Cyprus & Crete—on a thoughtfully paced exploration of culture, landscapes, and living traditions. Shaped by centuries of maritime trade and conquest, these islands reveal a remarkable blend of ancient civilizations, sacred sites, and vibrant coastal communities.

Travel by ferry, private vehicle, and short flights as you explore archaeological landmarks, historic town centers, and scenic coastal and mountain regions. Along the way, our expert guides bring each destination to life, while a balanced itinerary allows time for independent discovery, regional cuisine, and meaningful Mediterranean moments.
