Lake Garda

The deep blue, narrow northern tip of Italy's largest lake is a major landmark during the cruise phase.

Serra de Tramuntana

The UNESCO-listed mountain range on Mallorca's west coast provides a dramatic backdrop during landing.

Palma Cathedral

During the final turn into Palma Bay, the massive 'La Seu' cathedral and the harbor are perfectly visible.
