Ports of Call

Barcelona, Spain
Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Barcelona is Spain's most cosmopolitan city. It is especially well known for its vitality and style, as you will see on Las Ramblas, Barcelona's main thoroughfare. The city, while boasting monuments that are Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance in style, also captivates visitors with its incredible modern architecture. Among those worthy of attention, are the works of the legendary architect Antonio Gaudi.

Valletta, Malta
Thick sandstone walls fortify Valletta, holding within its stone streets and glorious architecture. It fees like a travesty, walking over the detailed inlaid marble floors of the the cathedrals, but they are there to be seen and appreciated. The Silent City is Mdina, on the far side of the island, where no cars are permitted to disrupt the serene streets. Keep an eye out for the legendary, aged yellow buses of Malta which appear to be on their last legs, but are in fact a revered and flawlessly maintained piece of Maltese heritage.

Alexandria, Egypt
Alexander the Great's timeless city is the portal to Cairo and its many wonders: the Egytpian Museum of Antiquities, with the treasures of royal tombs and mummies of their former inhabitants, as well as King Tut's stunning turquoise and gold death mask. Not far away are the enigmatic Sphinx and the Great Pyramid of Cheops, and just across the desert lies the step Pyramid of Sakarra, thought by many to be oldest free-standing structure in the world.

Port Said (Cairo/Gaza), Egypt
This island city is a perfect place to watch mighty tankers negotiating their way to and from the Red Sea, and offers you another chance to head for Cairo—the gold mask of Tutankhamon, and the weathered majesty of the Pyramids.

Limassol, Cyprus
On the island's south coast, Limassol is very much in the Greek sector of Cyprus. Nearby crusaders' castles, Greco-Roman ruins, olive groves and vineyards all speak to a lifestyle that is intrinsically Hellenic, and wizened lacemakers weave the traditions of their ancestors into their detailed work.

Rhodes, Greece
Rhodes, set behind impregnable 14th-century walls, invites you to navigate through crooked streets to shop for sea sponges and visit the gorgeous Palace of the Grand Masters from where the Knights of St John set out on the Crusades. Tour to the village of Lindos and climb to the Acropolis. Look down and you'll see where St. Paul landed, as well as the rocky peninsulas where many believe the Colossus of Rhodes once stood. This 110-foot-tall statue of Helios was destroyed by an earthquake, and its remains were melted down by the Arabs for scrap metal.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece
High above pulsating modern Athens, the sereneAcropolis reigns as it has for 25 centuries. Gaze on the timeless majesty of the marble-columned Parthenon. Down in the city, snap a photo of the colorfully-costumed Evzone guards at Constitution Square; go shopping for souvenirs, silver jewelry and bright flotaki rugs.

Tunis (Carthage), Tunisia
Tour the baths, villas and other ruins in the ancient Roman city of Carthage. A major gateway to Africa, Tunis boasts an uncrowded kasbah, a fascinating museum, and lots of local color.
