Day 1: Marseille – 17:00

Marseille, the oldest city of France, was founded in 600 BC by Greeks from Phocaea as a trading port under the name Massalia. Nowadays it is the most populous French commune after Paris and is the center of the third largest metropolitan area in the country. To the east, starting in the small fishing village of Callelongue on the outskirts of Marseille and stretching as far as Cassis, are the Calanques, a rugged coastal area interspersed with small fjords. Further east still are the Sainte-Baume, a 1,147 m (3,763 ft) mountain ridge rising from a forest of deciduous trees, the town of Toulon and the French Riviera. To the north of Marseille, beyond the low Garlaban and Etoile mountain ranges, is the 1,011 m (3,317 ft) Mont Sainte Victoire. To the west of Marseille is the former artists’ colony of l’Estaque; further west are the Cote Bleue, the Lion Gulf and the Camargue region in the Rhone delta.

Day 2: Olbia 12:00 – 18:00

Although the area around Olbia has been inhabited since the 8th century BC, the town was not actually founded until the 6th century BC. The Carthaginians decided on the location because of the natural harbour which created excellent access to Italy. Located in the Mediterranean on the island of Sardinia in Italy, Olbia serves as a main connection between Sardinia and the Italian peninsula. The Church of St Paolo, dating from the 17th century, boasts its Gallurese style and is worth visiting. The surrounding area is filled with an array of old, beautiful houses and exquisite buildings. Remains from the Roman era, the city’s defense wall and famous thermal baths can also be seen in this part of the town. Another must-see church is the Church of San Simplicio, which is the oldest and the most important religious landmark in the Gallura region.

Day 3: Palermo 11:00 – 19:00

Palermo is the capital of Sicily and its largest city – stupendously sited in its own wide bay underneath the limestone bulk of Monte Pellegrino. Originally a Phoenician, then a Carthaginian colony, this remarkable city was long considered a prize worth capturing. The city was founded by the Phoenicians, but named by the Ancient Greeks as Panormus meaning all-port. Palermo became part of the Roman Republic and eventually part of the Byzantine Empire, for over a thousand years. For a brief period it was under Arab rule during the Emirate of Sicily where it first became a capital. Following the Norman reconquest, Palermo would become capital of a new kingdom from 1130 to 1816, the Kingdom of Sicily. Eventually it would be united with the Kingdom of Naples to form the Two Sicilies until the Italian unification of 1860.

Day 4: Malta 10:00 – 17:00

The Republic of Malta is a small but heavily populated island nation in the middle of the Mediterranean. Consisting of 7 islands it is a popular tourist resort due to it’s tropical climate, exciting nightlife, and a history dating back thousands of years.

Day 5: Sousse 08:00 – 15:00

Third city of Tunisia after Tunis and Sfax, Sousse owes its status as the undoubted capital of the region to these assets :

* An olive grove stretching over more than 2,500 square kilometers, constituting one of its main riches since Antiquity;
* A busy port, open to the town center and giving a touch of gaiety to its activity;
* A medina of great historical interest, surrounded by its fortifications, which continues to live at its own rhythm, harmoniously contrasting with the modern city of typically Mediterranean charm;
* A seaside resort stretching to the north, making up together with the integrated complex of Port El Kantaoui one of the most complete and most diversified tourist zones of the Mediterranean, at only 20 km from the international airport of Monastir. As a sea town, Sousse benefits from a moderate and mild climate promoting all the pleasures which a tourist could desire and making it an all-season resort.

Day 6: Ibiza 16:30

The dazzling white walls of the houses, the flat terrace roofs, the winding paths, the fine beaches, relentless sunshine, good food and wild nightlife, provide Ibiza with its unique personality that sets it apart from any other Balearic Island (Majorca, Minorca, and Formentera). Also known as the “white island” it hosts several summer parties and outstanding clubs including Space, Pacha, Privilege (ex Ku), Amnesia, DC10, Eden, El Divino, Es Paradis, and Café del Mar.
Once you leave the beaches behind you can explore the island’s interior. You would be surprised to find a pure and simple Mediterranean culture as well as remains of populations which inhabited Ibiza thousands of years ago. Ibiza Town is the capital of the island. The heart of the old town “Dalt Vila”, surrounded by walls, built in the sixteenth century by the Emperor Charles the Fifth still has its rustic medieval character.
