You’ve seen the photo: An artful arrangement of appetizers is spread out on a table in front of a wrought iron railing. In the background, pastel buildings cascade down a cliff toward the cerulean sea. Italy’s picturesque Positano on the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento and Pompeii are lodestars for celebrities in the summer, drawing the A-list to their postcard-worthy shores as if by cosmic alchemy. Try it yourself on an Italy and Mediterranean-focused itinerary. As with all Norwegian’s Europe itineraries, you’ll find one-of-a-kind convenience when you unpack just once and wake up to a new city nearly every day.
After shopping for designer clothes in luxury boutiques or sipping a latte in dreamy Sorrento, head back to the ship to continue your glamorous evening on board while you sail on to your next luxurious locale.
Once a year, some 30,000 actors, directors and studio invitees descend on the seaside French town of Cannes to wear tuxedos and gorgeous gowns; watch the latest, greatest films; and explore historic landmarks that might inspire their next movie. Get inspired yourself on one of Norwegian’s Mediterranean itineraries that stops along the French coast: You can walk the palm-lined Promenade de la Croisette, visit fascinating old towns, drink wine made by monks on Saint-Honorat Island or enjoy Champagne in restaurants visited by the rich and famous.
If you’re still in the mood for refinement and culture once you’ve returned to the ship, visit any of the onboard restaurants for a carefully curated dining experience. With cuisine options from all over the world, you can dine on a delicate seafood tower, a juicy steak, tapas or bistro fare on any given night, each dish paired with a glass from the deep and diverse wine list. After dinner, grab a front seat for an award-winning musical, or a Broadway or Off-Broadway show — all are extremely well done and feature some of the most dazzling entertainers in the world.
Cabo is where the stars go to kick back and relax between projects. It just feels refreshing here — you can watch stunning views of the rugged Mexican coastline float past while you keep an eye peeled for whales and mobula rays, which jump from the ocean and seem to be flying. Take a whole afternoon to lie on a sailboat, letting the salt spray wash over you, or simply sip a cocktail in a lounge chair, warming your skin under the Mexican sun. Norwegian’s Mexican Riviera itineraries offer dozens of ways to center yourself: Onshore, there are waterfalls to climb, cathedrals to visit, and horses to ride along the shoreline. Onboard, the Mandara Spa offers ocean views, luxurious water therapy pools, hot tubs, tropical rain showers, a steam room and a sauna — an indoor continuation of Mexico’s sultry natural paradise. After a day spent exploring (or sitting blissfully still), keep the leisure time flowing with a massage featuring the restorative powers of essential oils and a seaweed wrap. What could be more luxurious, or starworthy, than having an on-call masseuse...
