Dining al Fresco! From Malta to Monaco, this cruise on the stylish but relaxed Le Ponant includes visits to six Mediterranean islands — Elba, Corsica, Ponza, Lipari, Sicily and Malta — all best experienced by small ship: Treasures of the Mediterranean (11 Days)


VENICE & THE DALMATIAN COAST You’ll find poetry in motion along the Adriatic Sea, not literally, but certainly as inspiring as any odes that have been written about it. Luckily for the Tauck guests who come aboard L’Austral with us, we’ll be able to wax poetic, in person, as we sail from Venice – itself a most word-worthy and storied port city! – to Croatia. What you may want to know before cruising the Dalmatian Coast is that it has been hailed as the most stunning coastline in Europe and has been known to move visitors to tears with its beauty. So bring your tissues, your cameras, your spirit for adventure, your love of history and cultural treasures, and maybe a journal or two, as we visit five UNESCO World Heritage Sites, enjoy a private dance and folk story performance on Korcula... listen to an a capella group onboard ship as we depart Kotor for lavender-scented Hvar, where wine tasting continues to romance your soul...


When you think about how difficult it is to get a table on the water at home...


Well, these folks weren’t thinking too much about home when they were dining al fresco aboard Le Ponant, sails unfurled, sipping fine wine, savoring chef-prepared specialties, laughing with new friends... on the Mediterranean.


Wonders of man & nature Tauck’s full transit through the Panama Canal, masterfully engineering a path between two seas, is awe-inspiring enough even for the most seasoned of sailors. But when you combine it with rainforest hikes, a barefoot day on a secluded white-sand beach, cultural excursions to remote island villages and colonial cities... the wonders never cease.
