So, this trip through Ceuta, Marseille, the ruins of Pompei, Athens, the pyramids of Egypt, Istanbul, is also a journey through thousands of years of history, through the Mediterranean civilization that marked and still marks the West cultures. On the cruise, she will also meet three impressive women, well-known figures of different nationalities: a renowned French businesswoman, an Italian former model, and a Greek teacher and actress; and especially the captain, an American of Polish origin.
