Italian Cruises
Posted By admin on September 24, 2009
Italy not only has the best food but also the best of everything else! From historical sites, beautiful romantic scenery to the most passionate people in the world. Stopping over in Italy while on a Mediterranean Cruise is not enough, so it is better to have one specific cruise destined for just Italy.
To get the full Italian experience, it is recommended to embark from the ports Savona or Genoa which are located on the Ligurian Peninsula. This will take you all the way to Venice where you will discover the real Italy. The Ligurian Peninsula has quaint coastal villages, amazing sandy beaches with rocky head lands that glisten in the bright sun. You can also walk through the birth place of Christopher Columbus himself which is in Genoa.
Go a little down south and you’ll reach Livorno where you can arrange to see the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa and Florence, the renaissance city home Dante and Michelangelo. You will also get a chance to see the colossal coliseum of Rome, Mount Vesuvius and the buried city of Pompeii. The last stop of the cruise will be Venice where you can explore the network of water ways with the Italian gondola.
The Italian architecture is also magnificent, evident in the famous Rialto Bridge and Bridge of Sighs. From all these historical spots that have not only shaped Italy, but the whole world’s history itself, you will be able to realize how much that country has influenced yours too, from the architecture, to the traditions and most importantly the delicious food.
