Each Star Clippers ship offers a traditional and elegant way to see the world. Feel the wind fill the sails and gently carry you from one gorgeous destination to the next. During your time on board, you can choose to relax on a sun lounger or cool off in one of the pools on the top deck, while more adventurous passengers may enjoy the opportunity to climb the rigging or even have a go at steering the ship. Alternatively, you can wander the interior areas of the ship and discover relaxing lounges, a revitalising spa (Royal Clipper only) and a peaceful library.
Tuesday, Aug 31 2027 - Trapani - Sicily, Italy
On Sicily’s western coast, Trapani is a graceful port city where salt pans, sea breezes, and centuries of history blend in golden light. Passengers can explore the charming old town, with its baroque churches and bustling markets, or join an optional excursion to the medieval hilltop village of Erice (available at an additional cost). Reached by a scenic drive or cable car, Erice enchants with cobbled streets, stone houses, and sweeping views across the coast and the Egadi Islands. Whether exploring history, tasting Sicilian sweets, or strolling the seafront, Trapani offers a captivating blend of culture and coastal serenity.
Wednesday, Sep 01 2027 - Palermo - Sicily, Italy
Vibrant and full of character, Palermo is the spirited capital of Sicily - a city where history, culture, and cuisine blend in irresistible harmony. Passengers can explore its dazzling mix of Norman, Arab, and Baroque architecture, from the golden mosaics of the Palatine Chapel to the grand Teatro Massimo. The narrow streets bustle with markets overflowing with colour and fragrance, while elegant piazzerias invite a slower pace. Whether sampling authentic Sicilian street food, admiring ancient treasures, or simply soaking in the city’s southern warmth, Palermo captures the essence of the Mediterranean - bold, beautiful, and unforgettable.
Thursday, Sep 02 2027 - Termini Imerese - Sicily, Italy (transfer to Cefalù)
Situated on the northern coast of Sicily, the quiet port of Termini Imerese is surrounded by rolling hills and sparkling sea views. Passengers can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the waterfront, or take our transfer to Cefalù, one of Sicily’s most beautiful seaside towns, which is just 32 km away. Nestled beneath a dramatic cliff, Cefalù captivates visitors with its medieval streets, golden beaches and magnificent Norman cathedral. Cobbled lanes lined with cafés and boutiques are perfect for exploring at a relaxed pace. Whether you wish to admire local craftsmanship, enjoy a swim or simply soak up the Sicilian sunshine, Termini Imerese offers a gateway to the island’s charming north coast.
Friday, Sep 03 2027 - Lipari - Aeolian Islands, Italy
The Aeolian archipelago is made up of 7 islands of volcanic origin, of which only Stromboli and Vulcano are still active volcanoes. The main island is Lipari, which offers travellers arriving by boat a beautiful panorama of its Acropolis, presided over by the Cathedral. Its marina is bustling with shops, boutiques and stalls... it's an island where life is good.
Friday, Sep 03 2027 - Stromboli, Italy (sailing in area)
Known as the “Lighthouse of the Mediterranean,” Stromboli is one of the world’s most active volcanoes, rising dramatically from the sea in a perfect cone of black lava. As the ship sails in the surrounding waters, passengers gather on deck to watch the island’s smoking summit and the famous Sciara del Fuoco, where glowing ash and stones occasionally tumble down the slope. The volcano last erupted significantly in 2019, and its gentle, frequent activity creates a mesmerising natural spectacle. Whether at sunrise or sunset, sailing near Stromboli is an unforgettable moment of raw beauty and quiet awe.
Saturday, Sep 04 2027 - Vibo Marina, Italy
Nestled on the Calabrian coast, Vibo Marina is a quiet coastal town surrounded by lush green hills with a long sandy beach close to the port. Vibo Marina is a gateway to explore Calabria, one of Italy’s most authentic and wild regions. Passengers can relax onboard or join our optional excursion to the coastal town of Tropea, built on the top of a cliff and called the “Pearl of the Tyrrhenian”. Tropea delights with its dramatic cliffside views, narrow streets, and vibrant piazzas overlooking the turquoise sea. Its sandy beaches and warm hospitality capture the essence of Calabria at its finest.
Sunday, Sep 05 2027 - Agropoli, Italy
Perched above the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea, Agropoli is a captivating coastal town at the gateway to the Cilento region. Its medieval centre, crowned by an ancient castle, overlooks winding lanes, vibrant cafés, and golden beaches below. From here, passengers can join an optional excursion to Paestum (available at an additional cost), one of Italy’s most remarkable archaeological sites. Strolling among the beautifully preserved Greek temples, passengers can imagine life in this ancient colony of Magna Graecia. With its blend of seaside charm, history, and authentic southern Italian warmth, Agropoli is the perfect base for exploring the timeless wonders of Paestum and the surrounding coast.
Monday, Sep 06 2027 - Sorrento, Italy
Sorrento, whose city walls rise straight out of the sea, is located on the lovely Amalfi Coast and overlooks the Bay of Naples. Optional excursions might include taking a trip back in history to Pompeii, where the ashen remains of ancient Romans lie frozen in time.
Tuesday, Sep 07 2027 - Ponza - Pontine Islands, Italy
The pastel houses of Ponza Town rise in neat terraced rows from the busy harbour where sleekly groomed yachts and ramshackle fishing boats moor side by side. Happily, there are few tourists here, so it's a delight to wander through the unspoiled town.
Wednesday, Sep 08 2027 - Civitavecchia (Port for Rome), Italy
Civitavecchia is an important seaport serving Rome, the Italian capital. As a key entry point for Mediterranean cruises and ferries crossing the Tyrrhenian Sea, Civitavecchia offers a gateway to a variety of destinations in Italy and beyond.
