Italy Cruise Holidays

An extremely popular choice for many people, a cruise to Italy captures the romance, excitement and charm of the country, and offers a wide range of ports and itineraries. With an ideal location in the middle of the Mediterranean, an Italian cruise can combine both the glamour and sunshine of the west, and the unique culture and history of the east, as well as the delightful scenery, cuisine and charm of the country itself. A great way to experience all that both Italy and the Mediterranean has to offer, an Italian cruise is a relaxing and convenient way to travel, whilst visiting some of the most famous cities and towns in the world.

 

Whether you choose a major superliner with plenty of activities and entertainment, or an intimate sailing vessel giving you more flexibility and choices of ports, an Italian cruise is a great way to explore the culture and beauty of the country. Popular ports on an Italian cruise will include Venice, Rome, Pisa, Sorrento, Naples, Genoa and Palermo. Venice is one of the most popular port stops on an Italian cruise, with this unique city synonymous with charm and romance, whilst Rome cruises (ships have to dock at Civitavecchia and travel inland) offer an insight into some of the most important historical sites in the world. Italian cruises take in ports such as Genoa, featuring stunning scenery and the natural beauty of the local coastline, with trips to Sorrento and Naples boasting the glamour and sophistication of this chic resort area, such as Positano and Capri. No cruise to Italy is complete without enjoying some of the local Dolce Vita and sampling some of the famous cuisine, from pasta and pizza to fresh fish and seafood at a waterside trattoria.
