Venice

Tall Ship Cruises That Dreams Are Made Of Where the Trade Winds Carry You Through Italy


Royal Clipper, the world’s largest fully rigged tall ship in service, is one of only a select few cruise vessels still permitted to sail into and out of the heart of Venice. This extraordinary privilege offers guests a front-row seat to one of travel’s most iconic spectacles: gliding along the Giudecca Canal as the city’s historic skyline glows in the soft hues of sunset, accompanied by the distant peal of bells from the magnificent Basilica di San Marco. To make this remarkable experience even more unforgettable, we’ve paired our sailings from Venice with a collection of exceptional pre- and post-cruise experiences. From exploring the dramatic peaks and alpine beauty of the Dolomites to savouring world-class wines among the rolling vineyards of Tuscany, enjoying a magical evening at the Verona Opera, or stepping aboard the legendary La Dolce Vita Orient Express, each journey has been thoughtfully designed to enrich your holiday with unforgettable moments and added value. Aboard the elegant five-masted Royal Clipper, discover some of the Adriatic and Mediterranean’s most captivating coastal destinations. Wander the atmospheric cobbled streets of Šibenik, where centuries of Croatian history unfold amongst medieval fortresses and charming waterfront cafés. Explore the colourful old town of Rovinj, a picturesque fishing port famed for its Venetian architecture, vibrant piazzas and inviting harbourfront. Further south, marvel at the breathtaking beauty of Kotor, Montenegro, where dramatic mountain scenery frames a UNESCO-listed old town filled with narrow lanes and historic churches. In Sarandë, Albania, uncover an emerging Mediterranean gem, celebrated for its crystalclear waters, laid-back atmosphere and proximity to the ancient ruins of Butrint. Sail to Lipari, the largest of Sicily’s enchanting Aeolian Islands, where volcanic landscapes, whitewashed streets and spectacular sea views create a truly unforgettable finale. Every voyage promises a perfect blend of adventure, culture and timeless luxury under sail.
