PORTS OF CALL

Barcelona, Spain

For those fortunate enough to begin and end their cruise in Barcelona, we offer this crucial piece of advice: treat the city not as a simple bookend, but as an essential chapter of your journey. To arrive a day before your cruise or depart immediately after is to miss the very soul of Catalonia. We strongly encourage you to frame your voyage with at least two or three days here, allowing Barcelona’s vibrant, artistic, and delicious culture to fully unfold.

This is a city that rewards immersion. It’s a place of grand boulevards and hidden medieval alleys, of avant-garde art and centuries-old traditions. It’s where the Mediterranean spirit of leisure blends with a fierce Catalan pride, creating an energy that is utterly unique. Let us help you craft the perfect pre- or post-cruise stay.

### Day 1: The Ancient Heart – Gothic Quarter & El Born

Begin your exploration by losing yourself in the **Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter)**. This is the historical center of Barcelona, a captivating labyrinth of narrow, winding streets that open unexpectedly onto sun-drenched plazas. While walking, you’ll stumble upon the magnificent **Barcelona Cathedral** (not to be confused with Sagrada Família), a soaring example of Catalan Gothic architecture. Take a moment in the serene cloister, home to a flock of 13 geese. The real joy here is aimless wandering, discovering artisan shops, quiet courtyards, and the palpable weight of history.

Adjacent to the Gothic Quarter is the trendier, more bohemian district of **El Born**. It shares the medieval layout but has a distinctly more artistic vibe. Here you’ll find the superb **Museu Picasso**, which offers an unparalleled look into the formative years of the artist. Just a short walk away is the breathtaking **Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar**, a church so beloved by locals it’s often called the “Cathedral of the Sea.” El Born is also a culinary hotspot, perfect for an evening of *pintxos* (Basque-style tapas) and local wine.

### Day 2: The Genius of Gaudí & The Elegance of Eixample

Today is dedicated to the architectural visionary who defined Barcelona: Antoni Gaudí. Start at his magnum opus, the still-unfinished **La Sagrada Família**. Our most critical tip: **book your tickets online, weeks or even months in advance.** This is not a suggestion; it is a necessity. The exterior is a marvel of symbolic sculpture, but the interior is where the true magic lies. Stepping inside is like entering an ethereal forest, with columns branching out like trees and kaleidoscopic light filtering through the stained-glass windows. It is a profound experience you will never forget.

From there, take a stroll down the elegant **Passeig de Gràcia**, Barcelona’s answer to the Champs-Élysées. This grand avenue is home to two more of Gaudí’s masterpieces. **Casa Batlló**, with its skeletal balconies and dragon-scaled roof, feels like a fairytale come to life. A few blocks up, **Casa Milà (La Pedrera)** undulates like a stone quarry, topped by a surreal rooftop sculpture garden of warrior-like chimneys. Again, advance booking is essential.

For a perfect afternoon, head up to **Park Güell**. Originally conceived as a utopian housing development, it’s now a whimsical public park with panoramic views of the city and sea. The mosaic-covered serpentine bench and gingerbread-style gatehouses are pure Gaudí fantasy. It’s a bit of a journey, but utterly worth it.

### The Culinary Scene: Beyond Tapas

Barcelona is a food lover’s paradise. For a true sensory explosion, visit a market. The world-famous **Mercado de La Boqueria** (just off Las Ramblas) is an icon, but it can be overwhelmingly crowded. For a slightly more local experience, we recommend the **Mercat de Santa Caterina** near the cathedral, identifiable by its spectacular, wavy mosaic roof. It’s a fantastic place to see locals shopping for produce and to grab a superb lunch at one of its market bars.

When dining, look for Catalan specialties. Start with *pa amb tomàquet* (bread rubbed with tomato, garlic, and olive oil), the simple but perfect foundation of any meal. Indulge in plates of *jamón ibérico*, crispy *patatas bravas*, and fresh seafood from the nearby coast. For a memorable meal, explore the seaside neighborhood of **La Barceloneta** for its excellent paella and seafood restaurants.

### Practical Logistics for the Cruiser

Barcelona is wonderfully easy to navigate, making a pre- or post-cruise stay a seamless experience.

* **Arrival:** From El Prat Airport (BCN), the **Aerobus** is the most efficient way to reach the city center (Plaça de Catalunya). Taxis are readily available and offer door-to-door convenience.
* **Accommodation:** For first-time visitors, staying in **El Born**, the **Gothic Quarter**, or the elegant **Eixample** district provides a central and atmospheric base.
* **Getting Around:** The city is very walkable, but the **Metro** system is clean, efficient, and will save your feet. A multi-day Hola Barcelona Travel Card or simply using your contactless card at the turnstiles makes it incredibly easy.
* **To the Cruise Port:** The main cruise terminal, **Moll Adossat**, is not within easy walking distance of the city center. A **taxi** is the simplest and most direct option (around 15-20 minutes from the central areas). Alternatively, the blue **Portbus (T3)** shuttle runs from the Columbus Monument at the foot of Las Ramblas directly to the terminals.

Allowing yourself this extra time transforms Barcelona from a logistical checkpoint into a highlight of your entire vacation. It’s a city that deserves to be savored, and you deserve the time to do it right.

Marseille, France

Nice, France

Monte Carlo, Monaco

Santa Margherita (Portofino), Italy

La Spezia, Italy

An overnight stay in La Spezia transforms it from a simple gateway into a strategic and authentic Ligurian base camp. This extended time removes the usual pressure of a port day, allowing for a thoughtful, two-part exploration of two of Italy’s most celebrated regions: Tuscany and the Ligurian Riviera.

On your first day, consider an immersive journey into the heart of the Renaissance. Florence is readily accessible via a direct train (approx. 2-2.5 hours) from La Spezia Centrale. This isn't a rushed highlights tour; it's a full day to engage with the city. Pre-book tickets to see Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia and the masterpieces of the Uffizi Gallery. With time on your side, you can wander across the Ponte Vecchio, climb Giotto's Bell Tower for panoramic views, and still have time for a leisurely lunch. The real luxury is the evening; enjoy an authentic Florentine dinner before catching a late train back, experiencing the city's magic after the day-trippers have departed. Alternatively, for a more focused day, the iconic sights of Pisa—the Leaning Tower, Cathedral, and Baptistery in the Piazza dei Miracoli—are just an hour away by train, leaving ample time to also explore the charming walled city of Lucca nearby.

Returning to La Spezia for the evening offers a wonderful contrast. This is your chance to live like a local. Take part in the evening *passeggiata* (stroll) along the palm-lined harbor, Passeggiata Costantino Morin. Find a small bar for an *aperitivo* and then seek out a trattoria for a true Ligurian dinner. This is the home of pesto, so trying fresh trofie pasta with the fragrant, basil-rich sauce is essential. Also look for fresh seafood, or regional specialties like *testaroli* pancakes or savory vegetable pies.

For your second day, the dramatic coastline of the Cinque Terre awaits. A short train ride from La Spezia Centrale is the most efficient way to hop between the five villages. Start in Riomaggiore, then perhaps hike a portion of the scenic trail or continue by train to Manarola for its classic postcard view. Vernazza’s harbor is a perfect lunch spot, while Monterosso al Mare offers the only significant stretch of beach. For a different perspective, a ferry from La Spezia’s harbor provides breathtaking views of the villages clinging to the cliffs. For those seeking similar beauty with fewer crowds, we recommend the ferry to Portovenere. This stunning village, with its Gothic church perched on a rocky headland and the colorful Doria Castle above, is a UNESCO site alongside the Cinque Terre but often feels more intimate.

Before departing, take time to appreciate La Spezia itself. The daily morning market in Piazza Cavour is a vibrant slice of local life, and the pedestrianized Via del Prione offers pleasant shopping. The Castello di San Giorgio, high above the city, provides a final, sweeping view of the Gulf of Poets—a fitting end to a rich, two-day immersion in the best of Italy.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

Civitavecchia serves as the maritime gateway to Rome, and it's essential to approach a day here with a clear and realistic plan. The 'Eternal City' is a 60- to 90-minute journey from the port, a commute that requires factoring travel time into your precious hours ashore. The most common and efficient method is the regional train, which connects Civitavecchia's station (a short walk or shuttle from the port) with Rome's key transit hubs. For those seeking more comfort and a direct route to specific sites, pre-booked private transfers are an excellent, albeit more costly, alternative.

With time being the most valuable currency, a successful day in Rome means choosing a focus. Attempting to conquer everything results in a frantic blur. We recommend choosing one of two paths. The first is a deep dive into Ancient Rome: pre-book tickets to explore the staggering scale of the Colosseum, walk through the ruins of the Roman Forum where emperors once stood, and marvel at the architectural genius of the Pantheon. This area is largely walkable and provides a cohesive historical narrative.

Alternatively, focus on the grandeur of Vatican City. Stand in the embrace of Bernini's colonnades in St. Peter's Square and enter the breathtaking St. Peter's Basilica, a monument to faith and art. A visit to the Vatican Museums to see the Sistine Chapel is possible, but requires strict, timed-entry tickets and a significant time commitment that will likely preclude other sightseeing.

Whichever path you choose, build in moments for the simple Roman pleasures that give the city its soul. Find a small piazza, order a quick espresso at a bar, toss a coin in the Trevi Fountain, or savor a scoop of authentic gelato. For those who prefer to avoid the journey altogether, Civitavecchia itself offers a pleasant waterfront, a bustling market, and the impressive Forte Michelangelo, providing a relaxed, local Italian experience.

Naples, Italy

Naples is less a polished tourist destination and more a vibrant, chaotic, and profoundly authentic slice of Southern Italy. As a port of call, it’s a world-class launchpad to some of history’s most significant sites and Europe’s most breathtaking coastlines. Your challenge isn't finding something to do; it's accepting you can't possibly do it all in one day.

For most, the primary draw lies just outside the city: the astonishing ruins of Pompeii. Buried by Vesuvius in A.D. 79, this ancient city offers an unparalleled window into Roman life. We strongly recommend a guided tour here; the site is vast, and an expert can bring the silent stones of its villas, temples, and brothels to life. For a more intimate and often better-preserved alternative, consider nearby Herculaneum, which was entombed in mud rather than ash, preserving incredible details like wooden beams and mosaics.

If you prefer legendary beauty to ancient history, the Bay of Naples delivers. A hydrofoil can whisk you across the water to the glamorous Isle of Capri, famed for its dramatic Faraglioni rocks, chic boutiques, and the ethereal Blue Grotto (weather permitting). Alternatively, a drive along the coast brings you to Sorrento, a charming town perched on cliffs with stunning views and a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for sipping limoncello and soaking in the scenery.

Should you choose to dive into Naples itself, be prepared for an intense and rewarding experience. The city’s historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site, a labyrinth of narrow streets, hidden courtyards, and baroque churches. The National Archaeological Museum is an absolute must, housing the priceless mosaics, frescoes, and artifacts recovered from Pompeii and Herculaneum. And, of course, there is the pizza. This is its birthplace, and enjoying an authentic Neapolitan pizza is not just a meal, but a cultural imperative. Naples is gritty, loud, and utterly unforgettable—a port that rewards the curious traveler with an experience of raw, unfiltered Italy.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.
