Our five-night cruise around Italy is the perfect way to recharge your batteries while enjoying some of the country’s most beautiful destinations. Departing from the port that serves the capital, Rome, we make our way to the pastel-hued, lemon-scented streets of Sorrento. Next, we anchor off the Amalfi coast, a cluster of colorful villages that cling to the soaring cliffs, studded with architecture that reveals Byzantine and Arab-Norman influences. Our next stop is Livorno, offering the possibility of visits to Florence's galleries and trips to see Pisa and its Leaning Tower, or forays into the Chianti vineyards. Onwards to Santa Margherita Ligure for trips to see Portofino and Ravello, before this whistlestop adventure comes to an end in Monte Carlo.
