THERE'S a little bit of magic in the Mediterranean air.
And it's especially noticeable in the medieval cities dotted throughout the region.
You can see these gems on board the Celebrity Constellation on The Senior's Medieval Cities of the Mediterranean escorted tour.
From the quaint town of Bellagio nestled on the shores of Lake Como in the Italian Lakes district to the romantic Venice and Verona, the itinerary captures the best the region has to offer.
After seeing Venice's famed canals, St Mark's Square and the Bridge of Sighs, we set sail over the Adriatic to the walled city of Dubrovnik, where a local guide will take us to the Fort of St John, the Sponza Palace.
The luxurious Celebrity Constellation will visit Malta's capital Valletta, the island of Sicily, Naples, Sorrento, Pompei, Rome and Valencia before arriving in Barcelona.
Here in Spain's second largest city, we will see the historic cathedral, the Gothic Quarter and the modernist Eixample district to see examples of Gaudi's stunning architecture.
The tour departs September 2, 2017.
The 17 night package starts at $8290, including flights from Sydney to Milan and Barcelona to Sydney, land and cruise, plus sightseeing at each port.
