Star Collector: Winter in Europe's Rivieras & Croatia
Windstar Cruises

Explore the Mediterranean shores during the quiet season for a different perspective. Sail along both sides of the Adriatic and trace the French Riviera and Spanish coasts during this 15-day journey with overnight port stays in Dubrovnik, Livorno (Florence), and Barcelona. Wander St. Mark's Square as you choose your favorite Venetian cafe table when pigeons outnumber pedestrians. Immerse yourself in Dubrovnik's highly acclaimed Red Museum exhibits and learn about Yugoslavian daily life as citizens. Meander through Pompeii's restored villas and lanes without crowds or stifling summer humidity. Discover the perfect balance of tart, Tuscan wine acidity paired with decadent pasta dishes in Florence and Capri in relative solitude from Naples. Delve into the abstraction of modern art and Matisse's intense colors as you stroll the unhurried elegance of Nice's contemporary art museums and visit the tiny shops in the alleyways. Indulge in tapas tastings and cocktails along Barcelona's las Ramblas.

Venice

No other sea approach in the Adriatic raises goose bumps like Venice, a small ship exclusive where the entire city and its lagoon are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On your luxurious home-away-from home, you arrive already equipped with a sense of what it&rsquo;s like to live in the city that&rsquo;s neither land nor water. Add your own sigh to the Bridge of Sighs, sip a spritz al bitter as you plot your agenda, and let the water taxis do your navigating unless you don&rsquo;t mind getting lost. Not such a bad prospect, with serendipitous discoveries around every corner.
