Barcelona, Spain
The Catalan capital, Barcelona, is one of the most vibrant, historic, and fun cities on the Mediterranean. The Barri Gòtic district is the oldest part of the city, with many centuries-old buildings, some dating back to before the Middle Ages. The city is also known for Antoni Gaudí's architecture; discover his works in Barcelona, including the Sagrada Familia, Parc Güell, and Casa Milà. Besides all these cultural sights, Barcelona is also the ideal city to enjoy the beautiful weather on the beach.
Athens, Greece
The city with the most glorious history in the world, a city worshipped by gods and people alike, a magical city. The enchanting capital of Athens can still be admired through its countless ancient buildings.
Valencia, Spain
In Valencia, wide squares connect narrow streets. Ultra-modern buildings stand alongside medieval monuments, and exquisite food doesn't cost much. Add to this a mild Mediterranean climate and endless stretches of beach. For a slightly less touristy and more authentic experience on your Spanish holiday, Valencia is an ideal destination.
Valletta, Malta
Located between southern Italy and North Africa, the island once served as a crucial strategic location for warring nations (Valletta was one of the most heavily bombed cities during World War II). Over the years, the island has blended ancient architecture with the modern, becoming one of the most interesting cultural sailing destinations on earth.
Genoa, Italy
The birthplace of jeans is not associated with Christopher Columbus or the Cross of St. George. Genoa was one of the world's most significant trading powers in the Middle Ages. The legacy of that wealth can still be seen in the city gates, beautiful palazzos and austere churches with opulent interiors. After years of restoration, even the Palazzi Dei Rolli is now back up and running and can finally be admired again. This group of palaces is registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; it is perhaps the most beautiful part of the city.
