PORTS OF CALL
Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
Let’s begin with the essential truth of this port call: Rome is one of the world’s most magnificent destinations, but your ship docks in Civitavecchia, a working port about 60-90 minutes away. This distance is the single most important factor in planning your day. A visit to the Eternal City from a cruise ship is not a casual stroll; it’s a tactical operation, and a brilliant one if planned correctly.
With limited time, you must choose your focus. Trying to conquer all of Rome in eight hours is a recipe for exhaustion. Instead, choose one or two core experiences. For a deep dive into antiquity, dedicate your day to the epic trio of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. Pre-booking tickets is not a suggestion; it is an absolute necessity to avoid spending half your day in a queue. Standing inside the Colosseum is a moment that truly transcends tourism.
Alternatively, you can immerse yourself in the grandeur of the Vatican. A visit to St. Peter's Basilica (note the modest dress code), the Vatican Museums, and Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel is a profound artistic pilgrimage. Again, advance, skip-the-line tickets are mandatory. The sheer scale of the art and history here can be overwhelming, so consider a guided tour to provide context and navigate the vast collections efficiently.
If you prefer a more atmospheric experience, focus on the iconic landmarks of the city center. A classic walk could include tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain, gazing up through the Pantheon's oculus, and admiring Bernini’s fountains in the Piazza Navona. This route allows for more spontaneity—stopping for a perfect espresso, discovering a hidden courtyard, or indulging in a scoop of world-class gelato. A day in Rome is a whirlwind, but it offers a powerful, unforgettable glimpse into a city that has shaped the very foundations of Western civilization.
Messina, Sicily
Messina serves as the bustling gateway to eastern Sicily’s most celebrated treasures, offering a compelling choice between iconic excursions and authentic city life. For many, the primary draw is Taormina, a stunning hilltop town that lives up to its reputation. Its Greco-Roman theater offers one of the world's great views, framing the Ionian Sea and the often snow-capped peak of Mount Etna. Beyond the theater, Taormina’s charm unfolds along the Corso Umberto, a pedestrian-only street lined with chic boutiques, cafes, and hidden courtyards leading to breathtaking coastal overlooks.
For a more elemental experience, an excursion to Mount Etna reveals the raw power of Europe's most active volcano. Ascending its slopes, the landscape transforms into a stark, lunar-like environment of black lava rock and volcanic craters. Wineries thriving in the fertile, mineral-rich soil on the volcano's lower flanks offer tastings that provide a literal taste of the terroir.
However, Messina itself should not be overlooked. It presents a grittier, more workaday Sicilian reality. The city’s heart is the Piazza del Duomo, home to a magnificent Norman cathedral and the world's largest astronomical clock. Be sure to arrive just before noon to witness the captivating spectacle as its gilded bronze figures animate to tell stories from the city’s history. A short walk from the port, you can savor classic Sicilian street food like arancini or a refreshing granita, experiencing a slice of local life far from the polish of Taormina. Messina offers a genuine crossroads: choose world-famous beauty or stay for a taste of an authentic port city.
Valletta, Malta
Sailing into Valletta’s Grand Harbour is one of the most dramatic arrivals in the Mediterranean. You are immediately enveloped by immense, honey-colored limestone fortifications rising from the sea—a fitting introduction to a city built by the Knights of St. John that is itself a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The city is a compact, walkable grid, making it ideal for a day of exploration. The primary destination for most is St. John's Co-Cathedral. Its austere façade belies a jaw-dropping interior of High Baroque opulence, with every surface covered in intricate carvings, gold leaf, and marble. The cathedral’s true masterpiece is Caravaggio’s monumental painting, “The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist,” a profoundly moving work that is worth the visit alone.
For the best views, head to the Upper Barrakka Gardens, which offer a stunning panorama of the Grand Harbour and the historic Three Cities across the water. Time your visit for the daily cannon firing from the Saluting Battery below. Beyond the major sites, the real joy of Valletta is in wandering its streets, admiring the traditional enclosed wooden balconies (*gallariji*), and perhaps stopping for a *pastizz*—a flaky, savory pastry filled with ricotta or peas.
For those seeking a quieter, medieval atmosphere, a taxi ride to the fortified city of Mdina is a worthwhile alternative. Known as the “Silent City,” its labyrinthine alleys and noble palaces offer a peaceful contrast to the energy of the capital.
At Sea - Cruising
Mykonos, Greece
Mykonos is the quintessential Cycladic island, and while its nightlife is legendary, a day visit reveals its more profound charms. Your first priority should be an unscripted exploration of Mykonos Town (Chora). This is where the island’s magic truly resides. Allow yourself to get lost in the labyrinth of narrow, whitewashed alleyways, where vibrant bougainvillea spills over balconies and every turn reveals a hidden chapel, a chic boutique, or a welcoming café. The goal isn’t a specific destination, but the joy of the wander itself.
Eventually, your path will lead you to the island’s most iconic sights. Make your way to the Kato Mili (Lower Windmills), a row of 16th-century windmills standing sentinel on a hill overlooking the sea—the classic postcard view. Just below, you’ll find the waterfront neighborhood of “Little Venice,” where colorful, Venetian-style houses with wooden balconies hang directly over the water. It’s a perfect spot for a coffee or a light lunch while watching the waves crash just feet away.
For those with a deep interest in history, we cannot overstate the importance of the nearby island of Delos. A short ferry ride away, this UNESCO World Heritage site is one of the most significant archaeological sites in Greece, the mythological birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. A half-day excursion here offers a profound glimpse into the ancient world. For beach lovers, while Mykonos has famous shores like Paradise and Super Paradise, reaching them requires a bus or taxi. A more time-efficient option might be the closer, family-friendly beaches of Ornos or Platis Gialos. Mykonos delivers a brilliant, energetic, and stunningly beautiful day in port.
Rhodes, Greece
Rhodes offers one of the most compelling arrivals in the Mediterranean. Your ship docks directly beside the monumental stone walls of its Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Europe. The primary experience here is simply to get lost within its labyrinthine, cobblestone streets.
The main artery is the Street of the Knights, a remarkably intact medieval thoroughfare leading to the imposing Palace of the Grand Master. This fortress-palace, rebuilt by the Italians in the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the lives of the Knights of St. John with its grand halls and Hellenistic mosaics. The nearby Archaeological Museum, housed in the former Hospital of the Knights, provides further context to the island's rich history.
For those seeking classical antiquity, a short taxi ride uphill leads to the Acropolis of Rhodes on Monte Smith, where the remains of a Temple of Apollo, a stadium, and a small theater offer panoramic views over the city and sea. The Mandraki Harbour, where the legendary Colossus of Rhodes is said to have stood, is now a pleasant waterfront promenade marked by statues of deer.
Many are tempted by the famous village of Lindos, with its whitewashed houses and clifftop acropolis. It is undeniably stunning, but be aware that the one-hour drive each way, combined with significant crowds, will consume the majority of your day. A choice must be made: a deep, immersive exploration of the magnificent Old Town, or a dedicated excursion to Lindos. For a truly rewarding day, embracing the historical tapestry at your feet in Rhodes Town is often the more satisfying option.
Athens (Piraeus), Greece
Let’s be direct: your arrival at the port of Piraeus is purely functional. It’s a massive, bustling commercial hub, and its primary virtue is its proximity to Athens, the cradle of Western civilization. A day here is an incredible opportunity, but it requires a smart plan.
Your first priority is getting into the city center efficiently. The metro (Green Line 1 from Piraeus station) is a direct and affordable option that bypasses all traffic. Taxis are plentiful, but be sure to agree on a fare or insist on using the meter to avoid surprises. Once in Athens, the Acropolis is the day's non-negotiable centerpiece. Seeing the Parthenon preside over the city is a profound experience that connects you directly to 2,500 years of history, philosophy, and art. We strongly advise pre-booking your tickets online to save precious time you’d otherwise spend in a queue under the Greek sun.
After descending from the Acropolis, the modern Acropolis Museum awaits at its base. This stunningly designed space provides essential context for what you’ve just seen, housing the original artifacts in a climate-controlled, brilliantly curated environment. From there, immerse yourself in the Plaka, the city’s oldest neighborhood. This labyrinth of cobblestone streets, draped in bougainvillea, is where you’ll find the true Athenian spirit. It’s the perfect place to find a traditional taverna for a leisurely lunch of classic Greek dishes.
Our best advice for a port day in Athens is to be strategic. Don’t try to see everything. Focus on the Acropolis, its museum, and a wonderful meal in the Plaka. By doing so, you will have experienced the profound essence of the city, rather than just rushing past its landmarks. Wear comfortable shoes, stay hydrated, and prepare for an unforgettable immersion into the foundations of our world.
Naples, Italy
Naples is less a polished tourist destination and more a vibrant, chaotic, and profoundly authentic slice of Southern Italy. As a port of call, it’s a world-class launchpad to some of history’s most significant sites and Europe’s most breathtaking coastlines. Your challenge isn't finding something to do; it's accepting you can't possibly do it all in one day.
For most, the primary draw lies just outside the city: the astonishing ruins of Pompeii. Buried by Vesuvius in A.D. 79, this ancient city offers an unparalleled window into Roman life. We strongly recommend a guided tour here; the site is vast, and an expert can bring the silent stones of its villas, temples, and brothels to life. For a more intimate and often better-preserved alternative, consider nearby Herculaneum, which was entombed in mud rather than ash, preserving incredible details like wooden beams and mosaics.
If you prefer legendary beauty to ancient history, the Bay of Naples delivers. A hydrofoil can whisk you across the water to the glamorous Isle of Capri, famed for its dramatic Faraglioni rocks, chic boutiques, and the ethereal Blue Grotto (weather permitting). Alternatively, a drive along the coast brings you to Sorrento, a charming town perched on cliffs with stunning views and a more relaxed atmosphere, perfect for sipping limoncello and soaking in the scenery.
Should you choose to dive into Naples itself, be prepared for an intense and rewarding experience. The city’s historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site, a labyrinth of narrow streets, hidden courtyards, and baroque churches. The National Archaeological Museum is an absolute must, housing the priceless mosaics, frescoes, and artifacts recovered from Pompeii and Herculaneum. And, of course, there is the pizza. This is its birthplace, and enjoying an authentic Neapolitan pizza is not just a meal, but a cultural imperative. Naples is gritty, loud, and utterly unforgettable—a port that rewards the curious traveler with an experience of raw, unfiltered Italy.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?
Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.
TRIP CANCELLATION
Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:
A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more
TRIP INTERRUPTION
Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:
You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable
TRAVEL DELAY
If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.
EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE
Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:
You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*
*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.
EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION
Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.
BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT
Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.
BAGGAGE DELAY
Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).
CHANGE FEE
Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.
