Seven Seas Voyager
Adriatic Elegance
Trieste, Italy to Athens (Piraeus), Greece
October 5, 2024 – 10 nights
Experience Immersive Overnights in three of the Adriatic's
finest cities – Trieste, Italy;
Zadar, Croatia; and Kotor,
Montenegro – before sailing to
Athens (Piraeus) for two nights on
this elegant 10-night adventure.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Zadar Sunset Serenade
Luxury travelers will explore the gems of the Adriatic Sea on
board Seven Seas Voyager, including Zadar, Croatia. Cruising the sheltered waters of
Jazine Bay as the sun begins to set, the ancient city is perfect
for leisurely exploration. The cruise will offer a unique
perspective of Zadar – the oldest continuously inhabited city in
Croatia – which will look all the
more radiant at dusk when the sky becomes a canvas of vibrant
colors. Guests will disembark at the Sea Organ, a set of marble
steps that plays harmonic sounds when seawater rushes through pipes
fitted with whistles beneath the steps. The phenomenon is adjacent
Greeting to the Sun, a solar-powered monument that creates an
imaginative light show each evening. Both multi-sensory attractions
helped fuel Zadar's resurgence. In the peninsular city center,
portions of Roman-built fortified walls and an excavated forum
whose construction started during the reign of Augustus – the first
Roman emperor – are the perfect setting for exploration.
Seven Seas Voyager
Majestic
Mediterranean
Istanbul,
Turkey to Barcelona,
Spain
October 27, 2024 – 10 nights
Luxuriate in four of the world's most dynamic cities – Istanbul, Turkey; Dubrovnik, Croatia; Rome
(Civitavecchia), Italy; and
Barcelona, Spain – on this
10-night Immersive Overnights journey to the
Mediterranean.
Sample Day Shore Excursion: Bocelli Music &
Art
Guests will enjoy a private piano concert and lunch at a
restaurant in Rome and see the
Eternal City's signature attractions on a panoramic tour. The
immersion into all things Roman will begin with an enlightening
drive through the capital, perfect for spotting icons such as the
Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and Circus
Maximus, the massive stadium where the Romans once held chariot
races. It will also serve as the venue for the piano concert of
Italian classics with an accomplished singer as accompaniment.
During the inspired lunch that follows, wines produced on the
Tuscan estate of Andrea Bocelli's
family will complement each course. The sommelier will describe the
characteristics of the wines and how the Bocellis produce them.
Guests will then view even more iconic locations such as St.
Peter's Square while exploring Vatican
City.
Seven Seas Navigator
Mediterranean
Tapestry
Rome
(Civitavecchia), Italy to
Barcelona, Spain
November 15, 2024 – 7 nights
Experience the best of Italian, French and Catalan art, food, and
culture on this 7-night Immersive Overnights journey to
Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy; Tuscany ( Livorno), Italy; Toulon, France; and Barcelona, Spain.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Sunset Wine Tasting &
Dinner at a Tuscan Villa
Savor the sumptuous flavors of the Mediterranean in quaint
tavernas and historic villas, including Villa Dianella, an elegant
Tuscan estate where the famed Medici family hunted during the 16th
century. As an introduction to the area, travelers will first
explore the nearby town of San Miniato. Perched atop a ridge high
above the Arno Valley, the town is known for its white truffles,
including a record-breaking one that weighed well over four pounds.
Following a full day of exploration, gourmands will enjoy a wine
tasting and beautiful evening meal at Villa Dianella, prepared with
locally sourced Tuscan ingredients. The seasonal menu may include a
paccheri pasta with pecorino cheese and a wonderfully seasoned
chicken dish with roasted vegetables. The tasting in the wine
cellar will be just as memorable as the selections will be organic
– guests will sample a blend made with Sangiovese and Cabernet
Sauvignon grapes and perhaps an Orpicchio white varietal.
Seven Seas Explorer
Blossoms, Towers and
Temples
Tokyo, Japan to
Tokyo, Japan
March 5, 2025 – 14 nights
Embarking from Tokyo, guests will
experience Immersive Overnights in Kyoto (via Kobe), Japan;
Seoul (Incheon), South Korea; Shanghai, China; and Japan's glittering capital Tokyo on this 14-night Asian adventure.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Seoul Night & Temple
Cuisine
In Seoul, South Korea explore
landmarks that define the capital's past and present at night,
when the sprawling urban landscape is beautifully illuminated. Few
places in Seoul are more historic
than Gwanghwamun Square, which has been a public gathering place
for centuries. It features statues of two revered figures – King
Sejong, who developed a phonetic system for writing the Korean
language, and Yi Sun-sin, a
brilliant 16th-century admiral renowned for his victories over the
Japanese navy. A delightful meal of dishes that originated in
Buddhist temples will follow. Temple cuisine is typically devoid of
pungent vegetables such as onions and garlic as they are thought to
hinder spiritual practices. For a glimpse at Seoul's vision for the future, stops to
photograph Dongdaemum Design Plaza, a cultural hub with a bold
amorphous design, and pausing at Sebit Islets – the world's first
floating cultural space – are essential. Sebit Islets will look
especially dramatic with its LED lights reflecting off the Hangang
River.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Relaxing Shanghai Night
Excursion
Guests will spend a stress-free, wonderfully serene evening in
Shanghai. The experience will
begin with a traditional Chinese foot massage in which pressure is
applied to specific points on the soles of the feet that supposedly
correspond to certain organs. Benefits may include restoring the
natural flow of bodily energy. The foot massage will leave guests
well-prepared to browse the Shanghai History Museum, whose dioramas
tell the story of Shanghai's
evolution decade by decade. The collection is absolutely astounding
as it contains priceless pieces in every imaginable category,
including calligraphy, textiles and jade ware. A short walk will
bring guests to the Super Brand Mall for an extraordinary meal of
traditional Shanghai cuisine.
Seven Seas Splendor
Flair, Flavor and
Culture
Monte Carlo, Monaco
to Athens (Piraeus), Greece
April 20, 2025 – 10 nights
Embarking from glamorous Monte
Carlo, this 10-night Immersive Overnights sojourn
sails on to Salerno, Italy for two
nights, then Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey and Athens (Piraeus), Greece for one night each.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Wine & Dine Experience on
the Amalfi Coast
Sample an inspiring selection of organic wines and savor an
equally delightful dinner at Le Vigne Di Raito, a boutique winery
on the Amalfi Coast. The experience will begin with a walking tour
of the vineyard, which although relatively young has already
yielded award-winning wines. Travelers will hear about the winery's
environmentally friendly practices and the unique terroir that
encourages grapes such as Aglianico and Piedirosso to flourish. A
tasting follows in the cellar, during which oenophiles will enjoy
sampling flagship wines made from blends of those grapes – a
ruby-red Ragis with hints of Mediterranean vegetation and a
Vitamenia Rosé with crispy hints of citrus fruits. After retiring
to a private terrace, a home-cooked dinner of seasonal dishes made
with locally sourced ingredients will be served. A natural jam made
with organic lemons from trees planted among the grape vines is
often available as it is delicious on cheese.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Michelin-Star Coastline
Dinner & Athens
excursion
During an overnight in Athens,
settle in for a panoramic drive through the Greek capital at dusk,
passing one ancient or modern landmark after another – including
the Arch of Hadrian, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, and even a statue
of Lord Byron, the famed English poet who died in 1824 during the
Greek War of Independence – while Athens becomes fully illuminated. Following
the drive, guests will dine at seaside Varoulko, an acclaimed Greek
restaurant overlooking Mikrolimano Harbor. During the meal,
Varoulko's coveted Michelin star will become obvious. Chef
Lefteris Lazarou's inspiring menu
focuses on fresh seafood, purchased each morning in local markets.
Dishes may include octopus carpaccio, sesame-crusted tuna and the
catch of the day.
Seven Seas Navigator
Enchantment in Northern Europe
Copenhagen to Stockholm
June 27, 2025 – 10 night
Immersive Overnights in Copenhagen, Denmark; Berlin (Warnemunde, 2 nights); Helsinki, Finland; and Stockholm, Sweden (2 nights) on this 10-night
exploration of some of Northern
Europe's most culturally rich cities.
Sample Evening Shore Excursion: Private Evening at Prince
Eugen's Waldemarsuddde
In the Swedish capital Stockholm, browse the impressive collection of
art at Waldemarsudde, the former home of Prince Eugen, which has been converted into an
acclaimed museum that will open after-hours exclusively for an
evening event. Born into royalty, Eugen became one of Sweden's foremost landscape painters and an
avid art collector with a keen eye. His early 20th-century
Art Nouveau residence holds many of
his finest works and objects of art that the prince collected over
the years. The estate and museum opened to the public shortly after
his death in 1947 and has since become one of Stockholm's most popular attractions. On the
enlightening tour through Waldemarsudde, expect to see the prince's
studio, his private living quarters and some of his most inspiring
landscapes. Although the collection features mainly Swedish
artists, it also includes works by Picasso, Rodin and Edvard Munch. Even the setting of Waldemarsudde
on the island oasis Djurgården is magnificent.
