09 Day Tunisia, Libya & Malta Cruise
Ship Specification
Itinerary & Excursions
Dates & Prices
We sail to Tunisia, the land of colours and contrasts, spices and scents invites you to enjoy its natural beauty, ancient cities, lively festivals and warm friendliness of its people. An ideal climate, a long and gentle seacoast, Tunisia, the northernmost country of Africa has for over 3000 years witnessed the passage of Phoenicians, Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Turks, Spanish and French.
Our next stop is Libya's capital, Tripoli, may be more modern than the rest of the country, but it has yet retained much of its historical character. Narrow, winding alleyways, traditional mosques and bathhouses, ancient fortresses and architecture influenced by a host of civilizations since its foundation in the 7th century BC - among others, the Turks, the Spanish, the Maltese, the Greeks, the Romans and the Italians - make Tripoli one of the most fascinating destinations even for those with only a passing interest in history.
In Malta, you'll explore 7000 years of history yet live passionately in the present. You'll span the millennia with an astonishing array of things to discover. And wherever you go, the Islands' scenery and architecture provide a spectacular backdrop. The colours are striking. Honey-coloured stone against the deepest of Mediterranean blues. The Maltese Islands have been described as one big open-air museum. What makes them unique is that so much of there past is visible today.
But Malta is no regular museum. Here life is lived to the full, so make time for some living history and action.
