PORTS OF CALL
Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Let's be perfectly clear: your cruise ship docks in Civitavecchia, a functional port city, but your journey truly begins or ends in Rome, the magnificent heart of Italy. To treat this port as a mere transit point is to miss one of the greatest opportunities in travel. As your advocates, we strongly encourage you to view your cruise not just as a voyage at sea, but as a bookend to a profound land-based exploration of the Eternal City. Arriving two or three days early, or lingering for a few days after you disembark, will transform your vacation from great to unforgettable.
**Making the Connection: From Port to Piazza**
First, the logistics. The journey from the Civitavecchia port to central Rome takes approximately 75-90 minutes. Your primary options are the train or a pre-booked private transfer. For the independent-minded, the train is efficient and offers a slice of local life. The Civitavecchia Express runs directly to Roma Termini, the city's main hub, while regional trains offer more frequent service. A private transfer, of course, provides seamless, door-to-door comfort—a welcome luxury after a long flight or at the end of your cruise.
**A Suggested Itinerary for Your Pre- or Post-Cruise Stay**
Think of your time in Rome not as a checklist, but as a series of immersive experiences. Here’s how you might spend a few days, allowing for both iconic sights and spontaneous discovery.
**Day 1: The Foundations of the Empire**
Begin where Rome began. The sheer scale of the ancient city is best grasped by exploring the trifecta of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. Our most critical piece of advice: book your tickets and a guided tour online, weeks in advance. A guide is essential here; they transform a sprawling field of ruins into a vivid narrative of political intrigue, gladiatorial combat, and daily life in the world's first superpower. Without one, the Forum’s significance can be lost. For a breathtaking—and free—panoramic view, make your way to the top of Capitoline Hill behind the Forum at sunset.
For dinner, bypass the tourist traps surrounding the monuments and head to the nearby Monti district. This bohemian neighborhood is a warren of ivy-clad streets, artisan workshops, and authentic trattorias. Find a small restaurant like Trattoria da Valentino and savor a classic Roman pasta dish, such as *cacio e pepe* or *amatriciana*.
**Day 2: Vatican City & Renaissance Grandeur**
Today is dedicated to the world’s smallest sovereign state. Again, pre-booking is non-negotiable. Start at the Vatican Museums, home to one of humanity's greatest collections of art. The sheer volume can be overwhelming, so we suggest focusing your energy: the Raphael Rooms, the Gallery of Maps, and of course, the Sistine Chapel. Seeing Michelangelo’s masterpiece in person is a moment that stays with you.
From there, enter the awe-inspiring St. Peter's Basilica (be sure to observe the modest dress code—covered shoulders and knees). For the physically able, the climb to the top of Michelangelo's dome offers an unparalleled 360-degree view of Rome. Afterward, stroll across the Tiber River via the angel-lined Ponte Sant'Angelo to the formidable Castel Sant'Angelo, once a mausoleum for Emperor Hadrian and later a papal fortress.
In the evening, explore the Prati neighborhood near the Vatican. It’s less tourist-focused and offers excellent dining and the chance to experience a Roman *aperitivo*—a pre-dinner drink accompanied by complimentary snacks, a cherished local ritual.
**Day 3: Baroque Beauty and *La Dolce Vita***
Immerse yourself in the Rome of cinema and dreams. Start your morning early at the Trevi Fountain to experience its majesty before the crowds descend. From there, it’s a short walk to the Pantheon, an architectural marvel of the ancient world. Step inside and gaze up at the oculus, the open eye to the heavens in its coffered dome. Entry is free, but weekend visits now require an online reservation.
Continue to Piazza Navona, a masterpiece of Baroque theater, dominated by Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers. This is the perfect spot for a mid-afternoon coffee while admiring the surrounding artistry. Spend the rest of the afternoon wandering the labyrinthine streets, perhaps doing some shopping along the Via del Governo Vecchio for unique leather goods and vintage finds, or exploring the bustling market at Campo de' Fiori.
For your final evening, cross the river to Trastevere. While popular with visitors, its charm is undeniable. Wander its narrow, cobblestoned lanes, discover hidden courtyards, and find a welcoming osteria for a memorable farewell dinner. It’s here, in the warm glow of a Roman evening, that you’ll truly feel the soul of the city.
By dedicating time to Rome, you are not just adding a city break to your cruise; you are giving yourself the gift of context, history, and pure, unadulterated beauty that will enrich every moment of your subsequent journey.
Sicily (Messina), Italy
Messina serves as the primary gateway to northeastern Sicily’s most compelling attractions. While the city itself was largely rebuilt after a devastating 1908 earthquake, it offers a convenient and interesting home base for the day, along with access to two of Italy’s most iconic sights.
The premier excursion is to Taormina, a stunningly beautiful hilltop town perched above the Ionian Sea. Its main draw is the ancient Greco-Roman theater, which offers breathtaking views of the coastline and, on clear days, the smoking peak of Mount Etna. The town itself is a charming labyrinth of pedestrian-only streets, high-end boutiques, and cafes perfect for people-watching. While it can be crowded, its beauty is undeniable.
For a more adventurous day, a trip to Mount Etna provides a memorable encounter with Europe's most active volcano. Excursions take you up the slopes to witness stark, lunar-like landscapes of lava fields and craters, a powerful display of nature's force.
If you prefer to stay in port, Messina has its own genuine highlights. The main attraction is the Piazza del Duomo, home to the Norman Cathedral and its incredible astronomical clock tower—the largest in the world. We recommend timing your visit for noon to watch its complex mechanical figures enact a daily spectacle. Nearby, the Museo Regionale (MuMe) holds a significant collection of art, including two masterpieces by Caravaggio. A short walk from the port, you can also sample local specialties like granita or arancini, offering an easy and authentic taste of Sicilian life.
At Sea - Cruising
Olympia (Katakolon), Greece
Katakolon is a small, pleasant port town whose primary purpose is to serve as the gateway to one of the most significant sites of the ancient world: Olympia. A 30-40 minute journey inland brings you to the birthplace of the Olympic Games, a sprawling archaeological park where you can walk in the literal footsteps of the first athletes.
The site itself is a stirring landscape of fallen columns and foundational stones. Key highlights include the ruins of the massive Temple of Zeus, once home to a wondrous statue that was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the Temple of Hera, where the Olympic flame is still lit for the modern games. The most evocative experience is standing on the starting line of the original stadium, a simple packed-earth track where history feels palpably close.
Adjacent to the ruins, the Archaeological Museum of Olympia is essential. It is not a minor provincial gallery but a world-class institution housing masterpieces of Greek sculpture, including the breathtaking Hermes of Praxiteles and the pediments from the Temple of Zeus.
After immersing yourself in antiquity, the town of Katakolon offers a gentle return to the present. Its waterfront is lined with cafes and tavernas, perfect for a quiet moment with a coffee or a glass of local wine, reflecting on the history you’ve just witnessed before returning to your ship.
Corfu, Greece
Corfu distinguishes itself from its Cycladic cousins with a lush, green landscape and a cultural identity deeply colored by centuries of Venetian, French, and British influence. This is immediately apparent upon entering its UNESCO-listed Old Town, a captivating labyrinth of narrow, cobbled lanes (kantounia) that open onto elegant squares. The town is anchored by two formidable fortresses: the Old Fortress, perched on a rocky promontory, offers panoramic views and a tangible sense of history, while the New Fortress looms over the old port.
The heart of social life is the Liston, a graceful arcade of cafés modeled on Paris's Rue de Rivoli, facing the vast Spianada square—one of the largest in Europe. It’s the perfect place to pause for a coffee or a local ginger beer (tsitsibira) and observe the rhythm of the city. For a deeper cultural dive, the Church of Saint Spyridon, with its striking bell tower, houses the relics of the island's patron saint.
While the Old Town can easily fill a day, those seeking coastal beauty can venture to Paleokastritsa (a 30-40 minute drive), renowned for its dramatic cliffs and emerald coves. Alternatively, the Achilleion Palace, built for an Austrian empress, provides a glimpse into 19th-century royal life amid beautiful gardens. Corfu offers a rich, layered experience, blending grand European architecture with the warm hospitality and stunning scenery of the Ionian Sea.
Dubrovnik, Croatia
Dubrovnik is not merely a backdrop; it is a complete, immersive historical experience. The moment you see the formidable stone walls rising from the Adriatic, you understand its acclaim as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic.’ The main cruise port at Gruž is a short bus or taxi ride from the Pile Gate, the primary entrance to the pedestrian-only Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Once inside, the city unfolds along the Stradun, a wide, limestone-paved thoroughfare. While it’s tempting to follow the crowds to landmarks like the Rector’s Palace or the Franciscan Monastery, the real magic lies in exploring the labyrinth of narrow side streets and quiet courtyards. Two experiences, however, are truly essential for a day visit.
First, walk the city walls. We recommend going as early as possible or later in the afternoon to avoid the intense midday sun and the peak crowds that can make the circuit feel congested. The two-kilometer loop provides unparalleled, evolving views of the terracotta rooftops, the shimmering sea, and the nearby islands. Second, take the cable car to the summit of Mount Srđ. The panoramic vista from the top puts the city's magnificent geography into perspective and is unforgettable.
For a more active perspective, a sea kayaking tour offers a unique view of the city's scale from the water. While its recent screen fame is a popular draw, Dubrovnik’s true identity is that of the resilient Republic of Ragusa, a maritime power that has been meticulously restored. It is a world-class destination where strategic timing is the key to fully appreciating its splendor.
Split, Croatia
Split offers a remarkable fusion of ancient history and vibrant modern life, centered almost entirely within the walls of a Roman emperor's palace. The cruise port's prime location allows for an immediate and immersive experience; a short walk brings you to the Bronze Gate, the waterfront entrance to Diocletian's Palace. This is no sterile ruin, but the living, breathing heart of the city, where millennia-old limestone is worn smooth by the footfalls of residents and visitors alike.
The palace's central square, the Peristyle, serves as a stunning open-air stage, flanked by the imposing Cathedral of Saint Domnius—originally Diocletian's mausoleum. A climb up its bell tower is highly recommended for breathtaking views over the terracotta roofs and the brilliant blue of the Adriatic. Below ground, explore the vast, vaulted substructures that once supported the emperor's private apartments, now often hosting markets and exhibitions.
Beyond the palace walls, the Riva promenade is the city's social artery, a wide boulevard lined with cafes perfect for people-watching over a coffee or a glass of local wine. For a taste of authentic commerce, the bustling Green Market (Pazar) offers fresh produce and regional crafts just outside the Silver Gate. Split’s core is compact and best explored by simply wandering its labyrinthine alleys, discovering hidden courtyards and soaking in an atmosphere that is both monumental and intimately human. It is an ideal port for independent exploration on foot.
Bar, Montenegro
Bar offers a different, more grounded perspective on the Montenegrin coast. As the country's main seaport, its modern waterfront is functional and lively, but the true historical heart lies a few miles inland. The primary destination for any visitor is Stari Bar (Old Bar), a compelling ruined city set dramatically on a hillside. A short taxi ride from the port, this open-air museum reveals layers of Illyrian, Roman, Venetian, and Ottoman history through its crumbling aqueducts, fortress walls, and quiet, cobbled streets.
Another essential stop is the Stara Maslina, one of the world's oldest olive trees, whose gnarled trunk has stood for over 2,000 years—a living monument to the region's deep agricultural roots. For those preferring to stay near the port, the 19th-century King Nikola's Palace, now a local museum, sits on the pleasant seaside promenade. While the city has accessible beaches, they are best viewed as places for a convenient dip rather than idyllic retreats. Bar provides a less polished but deeply authentic glimpse into Montenegro's history, rewarding those who look beyond the immediate port.
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.
