Cruise Overview

Italy's vibrant capital lives in the present, but no other city on earth evokes its past so powerfully.

For over 2,500 years, emperors, popes, artists, and common citizens have left their mark here.

Archaeological remains from ancient Rome, art-stuffed churches, and the treasures of Vatican City vie for your attention, but Rome is also a wonderful place to practice the Italian-perfected il dolce far niente, the sweet art of idleness.

Your most memorable experiences may include sitting at a caffè in the Campo de' Fiori or strolling in a beguiling piazza.
Naples, in the Campania region, is Italy's third largest city.

Its claim to fame is the spectacular location along one of the world's most splendid bays, backed by the perfect cone of Mount Vesuvius.

In addition to its beautiful setting, Naples' surprises with other outstanding attractions such as the Royal Palace, San Carlos Opera House, the impressive National Archaeological Museum and the Castel Nuovo, dating from the 13th-century.

The city's central area is best explored on foot.

Chaotic traffic conditions make driving around the city a very frustrating experience.

Naples provides a convenient starting point for trips to such favored destinations as Pompeii, Herculaneum and Mount Vesuvius.

The Isle of Capri can be reached via a 45-minute hydrofoil service.

The region of Campania was home to Greeks settlers some 300 years before Rome was founded.

Pompeii, too, was a Greek town before being conquered by the Romans during the 5th century BC.

It was under the Romans that Pompeii flourished and grew prosperous.

When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, the population of 20,000 was wiped out, but dozens of buildings were preserved under layers of cinder more than 20 feet deep.

The most important finds from Pompeii are displayed in Naples' National Archaeological Museum.

A visit here will no doubt enhance a visit to ancient Pompeii.
