Luxury Mediterranean Vacations

Ancient Ruins and Turquoise Waters

The Greek Isles are like heaven for those who love history and enjoy spending time at the beach, thanks to their old ruins and bright blue waters.

Make your way to Rhodes, an island famous for its Old Town from medieval times and fascinating ancient ruins. Explore their preserved Gothic and Ottoman architecture contrasted against thrilling watersports, serene beaches, and a lively night scene.

Similarly in Crete, find Ottoman architecture and old market streets decorating Chania. Some of the best Mediterranean family vacations take place here in Crete, with kids’ clubs and bustling Mediterranean resorts full of world-class amenities and 5-star dining.

Arguably the greenest Greek isle where trees cascade down hillsides to the sea, Corfu is a must-visit with its charming villages and pristine beaches. Find the quiet life on the northeastern side of the island with tranquil bays and quaint tavernas and boutiques. Find buzz on the south side of the island, with a resort-styled layout and close access to shops, restaurants, and the village square.

No matter what type of luxury Mediterranean vacation you’re after, the Greek Isles never disappoint.

Glamour and Secluded Beaches

The French Riviera is all about fancy living, with its beautiful beaches, top-notch food, and lively nightlife. Made famous by the 1950s glamour, the French Riviera has a distinct feel that’s hard not to be starstruck by.

Adventure to Port-Cros Island near Cassis and Saint-Tropez, a true paradise unique on the Mediterranean coast where you can go scuba diving and swim between big groupers and corbs at La Gabinière. After a day in the blue water unlike anywhere else, head to the island's small picturesque village for lunch in a timeless setting.

Give into the highlife on the French Riviera by exploring the balcony villages for a day with a private driver in a luxury vehicle, or take a quintessential fashion tour with a personal shopper and even visit Christian Dior’s estate for the truly elite.

From foodie experiences and market tours of the best markets in the south of France to private yacht hires and days spent languidly exploring secluded islands and the vibrant marine life, the French Rivera oozes romance and sophistication.

Dramatic Scenery and Gourmet Dining

The Amalfi Coast is like a dream come true for cuisine and culture lovers, with its stunning views, mouth-watering food, and that special Italian touch. Get lost in its vibrantly colored houses and winding streets cascading down the rugged cliffs and spend days lazing along spectacular Mediterranean beaches.

Take your pick from ancient sites such as Pompeii, Herculaneum, and the Greek temples of Paestum, and your choice of foodie experiences like visiting a limoncello farm, private cooking classes, or a mozzarella making experience for an eclectic blend of history and gastronomy.

One of the best places for Mediterranean tours, the Amalfi Coast is also a must on our personalized itineraries for couples and honeymoons in Italy. Its fantastical landscape elements all come together to create an undeniable romantic air that’s only made better by incredible people and even better food.

Other highlights we always recommend are enjoying the jaw-dropping coastal scenery by walking along the famous Path of the Gods trail and checking out Positano, a historic city known for its pretty pastel houses squeezed into narrow lanes. Visiting the Amalfi Coast is all about diving deep into local history and culture.

Vibrant culture and varied landscapes

An island off the coast of Spain, Mallorca, or Majorca in some spellings, is known for its heterogeneous topography with towering limestone mountains coupled with hidden coves and idle sandy beaches. Our vacations here epitomize the vibrant Spanish culture and architecture with stays in hilltop villas, beachfront resorts, and more.

The perfect destination for all groups, Mallorca is a popular destination for families, couples, and group trips alike. World-class Mediterranean resorts with fantastic kids' clubs, sports clubs, and dining are perfect for families, while adults will love exploring the island's other offerings.

Sample the local cuisine with private cooking classes and wine tours and take guided walks and bike rides through the mountains and canyons. Or spend the day relaxing with specialized wellness programs, private boat rides to hidden coves, and lounging on the white-fine sand by crystal clear waters.
