Description

Norwegian Viva sails from Barcelona in the late afternoon. The next morning, the bay of Villefranche opens up between Nice and Monaco, and a tender brings you ashore at the foot of the old town. Over nine nights, the ship follows the Mediterranean all the way to the Adriatic: La Spezia, gateway to the Cinque Terre, Civitavecchia for Rome, Salerno on the Amalfi Coast, Messina in Sicily, Corfu, Bar in Montenegro, then Zadar in Croatia before arriving in Ravenna, near Venice.

On board, Ocean Boulevard wraps all the way around Deck 8, with infinity pools facing the sea, the glass Oceanwalk and Indulge Food Hall. Your balcony stateroom keeps the sea in view at every port. The More at Sea package is included: beverages, four specialty dining meals, 150 minutes of Wi-Fi and an excursion credit, with service charges already prepaid.

Catherine Hodgson and Patrick Lepage escort the group in French from start to finish. To make things easier, we are also arranging flights, two nights in Barcelona before the cruise and two nights near Venice afterwards, offered as an option to group members. Would another arrangement suit you better? Just let us know and we will adapt.

Only 5 balcony staterooms remain. Reserve yours with a $350 per person deposit, 100% refundable until final payment.

-A port of call every day, from Barcelona to Ravenna
-8 ports in 6 countries: Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia
-More at Sea package included: beverages, specialty dining, Wi-Fi, excursion credit and service charges

Synergia network group departures

Advisors in the Voyages Synergia network build their own escorted group departures every year, with limited places. These are trips born of a passion rather than a catalogue: fishing in Guatemala, safari in East Africa, guided expeditions. The list above changes with the seasons.

What sets these departures apart

  • A Quebec tour leader who knows the destination and travels with the group
  • A restricted number of places, often a few dozen, sometimes fewer than ten
  • A clear theme, built around one activity rather than a destination alone
  • Fixed dates: you join the departure, you do not build it

How to book

Each departure has its own responsible advisor. Choose the trip that interests you in the list, then reach us through the contact page for remaining places and terms. These departures often fill months ahead.

Other ways to travel as a group

If no date suits you, two other routes exist: organized trips, already built and sold by tour operators, and a custom group, built around your own participants. Voyages AquaTerra holds Quebec permit 702703.

Frequently Asked Questions

An escorted trip built by an advisor in the Voyages Synergia network, on fixed dates with limited places, usually built around one specific activity.
No. Most participants do not know each other at departure. That is one reason these trips appeal to people travelling alone.
It varies by product, from a few dozen to fewer than ten on expeditions. The number is stated in each departure file.
Often yes, several months ahead, because places are limited. It is worth enquiring as soon as a date is announced.
Sometimes, depending on the flights and hotels used. Ask the responsible advisor before confirming, since it changes the air booking.
