Italy Cruises

For unbridled charm and beauty, our cruises of Italy are hard to beat. Take a voyage to this characterful country and enjoy the very best in art, cuisine, and architecture.

From delectable dining to sensational scenery, a visit to Italy never fails to delight. The country is not only home to some of the world's most desirable holiday destinations, but also offers diversity aplenty. Here you can find idyllic island paradises, quaint chocolate box villages, and glorious rolling countryside as well as vibrant cities and iconic historical landmarks. Whether you have ventured to this stunning part of the world before or are visiting for the first time, the breadth of history, sumptuous vistas, and unique dining experiences on offer are sure to leave you suitably impressed.

With so much to do and see, our Italy cruises provide visitors with the opportunity to see the highlights of the country's most spectacular regions while travelling in comfort. When it comes to art and heritage, there are few places that can compete with Rome. Several of our cruises of Italy include a stop at the port of Civitavecchia, providing easy access to the unparalleled sights of the country's capital, including the Colosseum, the Forum and the Vatican. Equally spellbinding is the canal-laden city of Venice, where you can enjoy a traditional gondola ride, wander through the beautiful narrow streets and explore famous buildings such as Doge’s Palace and St Mark’s Basilica.

A particular highlight for some guests on our Italy cruises, a visit to the capital of Sardinia, Cagliari, means time well spent relaxing on some of the country's most inviting beaches, as well as the chance to visit Roman landmarks such as the Temple of Antas. Elsewhere on the coast, the stylish Italian Riviera boasts charming fishing villages and colourful houses, while the Amalfi Coast offers ancient history, terraced vineyards and cliffside views.

Whether you’re craving authentic, traditionally made pizza in Naples or some downtime at a picturesque beach, our Italy cruises will deliver it and much, much more.
