From the island of Malta to AthensPONANT invites you on an exceptional voyage with two ports of call in Sicily and four in Greece.  

Le Bougainville will leave Valletta, the capital of Malta and former stronghold of the Knights of the Order of Malta, for an 8-day cruise on seas that are brimming with history.  

After calling at beautiful Catania whose Late Baroque style monuments spread to the foot of Mount Etna, we will set sail for Taormina.  

In Taorminathe streets will lead you to the impressive ancient theatre, where the quality of the acoustics is exceptional. And as a constant backdrop: the majestic Mount Etna!

Le Bougainville will then cross the Ionian Sea towards Katakolon, your first Greek point of call. From the port, you will head to Olympia, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, whose ruins testify to its former grandeur.

You will then sail south for the charming Monemvasia. A romantic haven for the Athenians, this magnificent peninsula conserves treasures of Venetian and Byzantine architecture in the small vaulted streets of its fortified medieval village, which feature thousands of shades of ochre.

Le Bougainville will finally set sail for the charming town of Nafplion, the departure point for the famous Epidaurus Theatre and the Mycenae site, listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. 

The cruise will enable you to discover Hydra, a small island of old-worldly charm where motorised traffic is banned.

This wonderful journey will end in Athens.
