From Livorno, your path leads through the rolling green hills of Tuscany to Florence, the flower of the Renaissance.

Nowadays, the city hosts conventions and festivals all year round - and there's plenty to attract the guests and delegates.

A major seaport and naval base, it has a fine natural harbor, protected by forts. It was founded in 225 B.C. and soon became a flourishing port: the chief Carthaginian base in Spain.

Ibiza is the party spot of the Balearic Islands, with a trendy resort reputation that seems to draw every club-going European to the outrageous summery street scene. Daytime hours are spent on the beaches at Las Salinas and Es Cabellet, while nights are danced away in any of the bars and discos which compete for tourist dollars.

Barcelona is the cultural heartland of Spain, yet its first language is Catalan, the native tongue of the proudly independent Catalonia region.

The major island in the chain known as the Balearics, Mallorca is Spain's sunny outpost in the Mediterranean. The town of Palma boasts a shady plaza near the Gothic Cathedral.

Menorca is considered the gem of the Balearic Islands. Mahon, its most important port, is also its capital. Journey to the top of Monte Toro, the highest mountain on the island, and savor a most spectacular view. Occasionally as far as Majorca.

La Goulette, or Halq al-Wadi, serves as a gateway to the capital of Tunis, linked by a seven-mile long canal. La Goulette's proximity to both Lake Tunis and the Gulf of Tunis makes it a popular resort. Visit the ruins of forts that date back to the Spanish and Turkish occupation of the island.

As Sardinia's capital, Cagliari is both a thriving modern city and a fine example of the varied history of this Italian island.

Antiquities from the native Nuraghi culture and from the Phoenician era onward are well-displayed in the National Archaeological Museum.

Located on Sardinia's northeast coast on the Tyrrhenian Sea, Olbia is quickly becoming a popular tourist destination.

Visit the traces of Phoenician and Roman tombs and the Church of San Simplicio, created by Pisa during Roman times.

Bonifacio is the southernmost port of Corsica and enjoys a breathtakingly dramatic and isolated position. The old town perches precariously on a peninsula of magnificent stratified, white limestone cliffs. Ferries from Sardinia berth at the natural harbour created between this peninsula and the mainland. The tortuous maze of shaded, cobbled streets of the old town, nestling within the imposing Citadel walls, reveal buildings which are historical treasures of a bygone era.
