Cruises to Rome, Italy

Rome (Civitavecchia) Mon 04 Nov 2024

Cruises to Rome, Italy

Your gateway to the Eternal City, Civitavecchia has served as Rome's seaport since the 13th century. The port has a long and venerable history. The emperor Trajan built a pleasure villa near the modern city, while Bernini and Michelangelo designed the harbor fortifications. Yet the Eternal City eternally beckons. The ancient capital of the Western World and the center of Christianity for nearly 2,000 years, Rome provides an inexhaustible feast. Visit the ruins of the Forum, view the splendors of the Sistine Chapel, or climb the Spanish Steps, once the heart of Rome's Bohemian Quarter. Rome has been a magnet luring the world's greatest artists, architects, and philosophers since the days of the Caesars.

Cagliari, Sardinia

Cagliari Tue 05 Nov 2024

Cagliari, Sardinia

The views from the Terrazza Umberto I are panoramic: one looks out over Sardinia's capital, a city ancient even in Roman times. Mountains frame the azure waters of the gulf. Nearby lagoons harbor flocks of flamingos and egrets. Welcome to one of the most intriguing ports in the Western Mediterranean. Founded by Phoenician traders in the 7th century B.C., Cagliari has been a Carthaginian colony and a Roman seaport. Those fine old walls supporting the Terrazza Umberto I were erected in the 13th century by the Italian city-state of Pisa. In addition to its fine old Italian architecture, Cagliari boasts superb light, inviting waters and excellent beaches. The city-state of Pisa and the Kings of Aragon vied for control of Sardinia for two centuries. The cathedral, built by Pisans in the 13th century, holds the mausoleum of a 15th century Aragonese prince.

Sicily (Messina), Italy

Sicily (Messina), Italy Wed 06 Nov 2024

Sicily (Messina), Italy

Messina has played a major role in European history since its founding as a Greek colony in the 8th century B.C. During the Roman Empire, the city was a major port and commercial center, during the Middle Ages, Messina was the major port of departure for Crusaders. History has also left its scars: a massive earthquake leveled much of the city in 1908 and the World War II campaign for Sicily devastated Messina. Yet Messina emerged from that devastation with some of its historic treasures intact, including the 12th-century Annunziata dei Catalani Church. Messina is also your gateway to the rugged beauty of southeast Sicily, from the seaside resort of Taormina to Mt. Etna. Between the fall of Rome and the 1861 unification of Italy, the Arabs, the Normans, the Germans, the Spanish and the French ruled Sicily.

La Goulette

Tunis (La Goulette) Thu 07 Nov 2024

La Goulette

The port of La Goulette is your gateway to Tunis and the ruins of Carthage. According to myth, Carthage was founded by Dido, daughter of the King of Tyre. Her tragic romance with the Trojan hero Aeneas forms the heart of Virgil's epic "The Aeneid." Myth aside, by the 5th-century B.C., Carthage was the great commercial and cultural center of North Africa. Eventually the city-state clashed with the expanding Roman Republic in three Punic Wars. While Carthage's most famous general Hannibal inflicted a crushing defeat on the Romans in the Second Punic War, the third Punic War led to the destruction of Carthage. The ruins of Carthage are easily explored from La Goulette. Or for a different perspective on Tunisia, travel to Tunis for a visit to the Old City's Medina, a warren of narrow, twisting lanes lined with souks. The most northerly country on the African continent, Tunis has proved a lure to numerous invaders and overlords including the Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs, Turks, Spanish and French.

Cruises to Croatia

Dubrovnik Mon 11 Nov 2024

Cruises to Croatia

Dubrovnik is a beautiful stone jewel hugging the Adriatic Sea. This picture-perfect medieval walled city offers ancient stone buildings, narrow cobbled streets and fortified ramparts rising above red-tiled rooftops. Stradun is the city's focal point and main artery while Dubrovnik's streets are blessedly free of vehicular traffic. Despite the heavy damage inflicted by shelling in the early '90s, Dubrovnik has been restored to its pre-war beauty. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the old city remains the pride of the Republic of Croatia. For six centuries Dubrovnik was an independent republic - an oligarchy ruled by patrician families. The Republic was overthrown by Napoleon in 1808.

Salerno Wed 13 Nov 2024

Naples (Salerno), Italy

Inhabited since antiquity, Salerno found its place as a Roman colony in 197 B.C. After the fall of Rome, a who's who of European kingdoms conquered the city including the Goths, the Byzantines and the Lombards. It's easy to see why. The warm Mediterranean sun and rolling hillsides beckon with new adventures and pinch-me-I must-be-dreaming experiences. Hike the jaw-dropping Mount Vesuvius, feel the centuries unfold as on a guided walk through the amazing cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, or soak up the scenery with a cruise along the dazzling Amalfi Coast. Whatever you choose, Salerno offers precious memories that will last a lifetime.

Cephalonia (Argostoli) Sun 17 Nov 2024

Argostoli (Cephalonia)

The largest of the Ionian Islands, Cephalonia possesses a classic landscape with an arid mountain interior and a rocky seacoast punctuated by bays and beaches. Mount Ainos, the island's major peak, towers a mile above sea level, while the busy seaport of Argostoli is Cephalonia's largest town. The Jet Set and the international yachting community have frequented the old fishing ports of Fiskardo and Sami since the late 1950s. But the island's population soared in the 1980s and '90s, as increasing numbers of general travelers discovered Cephalonia's superb beaches, dramatic caves, and picturesque villages.
