The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection: Sail the Mediterranean
By Tully Luxury Travel | 10-31-2023 |
It’s a sea that has seen a million ships, witnessed incredible change, kept secrets, inspired artists. Touching the timelines of 20 countries, the Mediterranean is genuinely one of the most storied and historic – not to mention glamorous – social, cultural and historical epicenters of the Western world. It reveals the inner dreams and unique stories of so many different cultures via dozens of engaging and exciting ports – and the best way to visit them is by sea.
This is where The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection can bring these fascinating destinations slowly into view for you, then land you lightly on shore for the vacation of a lifetime.
The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is no ordinary cruise line. It is the pure embodiment of absolute luxury – the height of glamor, a refined yacht environment to be found nowhere else at sea. In these extremely capable hands, you will experience the romance of the quaint towns and bustling city centers, the charming and congenial people, the wealth of culture and the hallmarks of tradition. This is how small-ship luxury sailing was meant to be – with plenty of time to spend on the beach.
Experience a balanced mix of old and new.
On the Mediterranean, the storytelling is beyond mere words, the pages of history seemingly coming to life before your eyes. To monuments and ruins, through old city gates to gilded cathedral walls, and from clock towers to seaside promenades, the history of Europe seems to surrender to legend, the tales themselves trumping the actual factual record. This is all part of the fun, as you witness the storied columns of the Pantheon, the blue-domed whitewashed architecture of Santorini, Istanbul’s Blue Mosque, the cathedrals of Palma de Mallorca and so much more.
But the exploration on the itinerary with The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection is not just about olden times – there is always something new, too. The present effortlessly intersects with history through modern art collections, overnights in new five-star hotels and resorts, Michelin-inspired dining and the magic of the cosmopolitan European café society – this is a stylish bunch.
A slower pace than you might be used to takes hold, all the more reason to relax. Appreciating life fills the hours on the Mediterranean coast, even more so than in the northern parts of Europe. This is how the high life was meant to be lived – chic, spontaneous, indulgent – a chance to step outside yourself and perhaps even reinterpret your outlook on life. In Europe, there certainly are plenty of good examples to adopt on how to life to the fullest.
And best of all – beauty is everywhere you look.
