Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1
Civitavecchia
Depart 17:00
The deep-water port serving Rome, roughly 80 kilometres up the coast. Ships dock here for shore excursions to the Colosseum, the Vatican and the Roman Forum, while the town itself keeps a working harbour and a Michelangelo-designed fortress.

- Fort Michelangelo
- Vatican excursions
- Day2
Salerno
Arrive 06:30 · Depart 15:00
An Italian port at the head of its own gulf, just south of the Amalfi Coast. Its long seafront and walkable medieval centre make it a quieter base for reaching Pompeii, Paestum's Greek temples and the cliffside towns of Amalfi and Positano.

Livorno

- Day4
Villefranche-sur-Mer
Arrive 07:00 · Depart 16:30
