Explore Italy's Landmarks
Italy has more UNESCO World Heritage cultural sites than any other country on the planet. Its capital, Rome, is home to the Vatican as well as a swathe of landmark ancient ruins, such as the gladiatorial Coliseum. The volatility of Italy’s extraordinary landscape is on view at Pompeii and Herculaneum, while its sheer beauty comes to life across the fields of Tuscany.
Enjoy Fine Italian Cuisine
Of course, food, or rather eating, is a major pastime in Italy, and there is always a raft of the finest ingredients like fresh olives, tomatoes, aubergines, olive oil and fish to be enjoyed. The regional wines and cheeses are second to none – visitors are genuinely hard pressed to find a bad meal anywhere.
Italian cruises are full of history, natural beauty and welcoming people and at the end of a voyage to this magical land, most are left with only one desire – to go back again and again.
