The ancient capital of the Western World and the centre of Christianity for nearly 2,000 years, Rome provides an inexhaustible feast of historical and cultural landmarks to explore. Visit the ruins of the Forum and the Colosseum, view the splendours of the Sistine Chapel, throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain or climb the Spanish Steps, once the heart of Rome's Bohemian Quarter.

Don't forget to treat your taste buds to the delights of authentic Roman cuisine, which is as captivating as the city's ancient wonders. Indulge in creamy gelato, savour the perfection of al dente pasta, and relish the thin, crispy crust of Roman-style pizza. Buon Appetito!

Serving as Rome’s seaport since the 13th century, Civitavecchia is located about an hour (80km/50mi) from the centre of Rome. For guests arriving and departing from the airport in Rome, a transfer to Civitavecchia port should be organised ahead of time with your cruise line. Details will be provided in your travel documentation after booking.

The bustling La Boqueria Market offers a sensory overload with its colorful stalls and local delicacies.

A great cruise through the Mediterranean 1 , VIC, Australia, Jun 2024
Embarking in Genoa was a hassle free process! We were processed and in our room on the ship in under an hour. So different from embarking on a cruise in Venice! This cruise was fantastic. The places we stopped at were all new to us and it added to the experience. We booked a combination of excursions some with MSC and some privately. The choice of food ...read more on board was very good, including a standalone Gluten Free menu. The staff were always friendly and accommodating. The only negative was a cancellation of our shore excursion in Sardinia that I had booked well in advance as I knew it would book out. Apparently due to weather!! It ended up being a 30deg day and our Plan B day turned out to be great but I was disappointed the excursion was cancelled the night before with little time to reschedule. Can't control the weather! That is the worst thing that happened on a very relaxing cruise. The whole process of booking and following up with Georgie from Global Journeys was so easy! This is cruise number 2. Thank you.
