The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Sail to the car-free island of Giannutri — a protected marine reserve with crystalline waters — to snorkel ancient Roman ruins and hidden coves. One of Tuscany's most untouched secrets, accessible only by private boat.
Glide into sea caves, hidden grottoes and amber-lit coves carved into Monte Argentario's wild cliffs on a private motorboat. This is the definitive way to experience the promontory's most dramatic and inaccessible beauty.
Explore the three 16th-century Spanish fortresses that crown Porto Ercole — where Caravaggio took his final breath in 1610. An expert-led private walk through one of Italy's most atmospheric and overlooked historical sites.
Spend a private morning at La Parrina, one of Tuscany's oldest and most storied agri-estates, tasting bold Maremma DOC reds and single-estate extra-virgin olive oil amid organic vines and ancient olive groves.
Dive the Tuscan Archipelago's protected reefs with Argentario's most respected dive centre — vivid posidonia meadows, octopus-laced rocks and schools of amberjack in some of Italy's clearest coastal waters.
Pedal the Feniglia tombolo — a 7 km pine-shaded sandbar linking Monte Argentario to the mainland — on a private e-bike, with the turquoise lagoon on one side and the Tyrrhenian on the other. Utterly effortless, absurdly beautiful.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
