Casually intermingled among ancient ruins and majestic cathedrals are the trappings of a modern metropolis: Skyscrapers,cafes, boutiques selling designer footwear. But of course what you seek first in the heart of Rome is its breathtaking history.  A good place to begin is the Vatican, with its Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. Works by Bernini, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and Raphael are just a few of those on display, any one of which is worth hours of contemplation. Then the ancient ruins-Colosseum, Forum, Circus Maximus.

Livorno, Lucca, the Fortress City & Pisa

Depart from the pier and drive to the Tuscan town, Lucca. Lucca was originally colonized by Romans and has retained its layout of a Roman military camp with its two main streets running perpendicular to one another. Coupled with a complicated system of narrow alleys and oddly-shaped squares, this was a difficult town to penetrate. Beginning in the 1550s, Lucca became an important agricultural center and experienced a renewed interest in building and infrastructure due to its population increase. Your guided tour of Lucca will start with the Piazza Anfiteatro, a Roman Ampitheater, now a public square surrounded by shops. You'll also walk along Via Fillungo, the main pedestrian street in Lucca before visiting the Basilica of San Frediano, the oldest church in Lucca, and San Michele Church, known for its intricate facade. After your walking tour, you will have free time to explore Lucca before your drive to Pisa. In Pisa you'll visit Piazza del Miracoli, a collection of four notable buildings with the most famous being the Leaning Bell Tower. Don't miss the chance to take a picture "propping up" the Leaning Tower or to enjoy an Italian gelato in a local café during your free time at this stop. Afterwards, you'll begin the drive back to your ship. Please note: We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and bring local currency.

Livorno, Siena & San Gimignano Full Day with Wine Tasting and Lunch

Embark on an unforgettable full-day journey through the golden heart of Tuscany, taking in two of the region's most breathtaking medieval jewels in a single remarkable day. Your first destination is the magnificent city of Siena, where steep medieval alleys open dramatically onto the legendary Piazza del Campo — widely regarded as the most beautiful square in Italy and home to the famous Palio horse race — flanked by centuries-old palaces including the imposing Palazzo Pubblico and the soaring Torre del Mangia, whose 102-metre bell tower surveys a sweeping Tuscan panorama. A visit to the Church of San Domenico reveals the relics and extraordinary frescoes dedicated to Saint Catherine, patron saint of Italy, before the cathedral's magnificent black and white marble façade and Nicola Pisano's celebrated pulpit leave a lasting impression. From Siena, the coach winds through the rolling Tuscan countryside to Fattoria Lornano, a historic farmhouse winery where a tour of the ancient cellars sets the scene for a superb Tuscan light lunch served at table: charcuterie, pecorino, and bruschetta to start, followed by pasta or lasagne, and Vin Santo with cantucci to finish — all accompanied by a tasting of four wines plus the estate's honeyed Vin Santo. The afternoon brings the extraordinary walled town of San Gimignano, its iconic medieval tower skyline rising above vineyards that have produced wine for centuries, with time to wander the Via San Giovanni, explore the Piazza della Cisterna, and enjoy panoramic views from the ancient Rocca fortress over the surrounding countryside before the return journey to Livorno.

Please note that entry to the Cathedral requires specific attire — ladies must cover knees and shoulders; gentlemen must wear full-length trousers. Please note: on Mondays museums are closed.

Sorrento, Herculaneum

The city of Herculaneum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was founded around the 4th century B.C., copying the geometric regularity of the layout of Naples. Its "decumani" (main streets) have an east-west orientation, while the "cardines" (narrower streets) run north-south. There is undeniably a "feeling" about Herculaneum, quite different from Pompeii, where you get the impression that its ancient population of 5,000 packed up and left only moments ago. Herculaneum was smaller than Pompeii but is better preserved simply because, while hot ashes consumed the wood of Pompeii's buildings, Herculaneum was covered by hot mud which sealed and protected entire city blocks. This means that marble floors, mosaics, paintings and carbonized woods can still be admired today. You will discover the ancient luxurious properties and villas including the House of the Mosaic, the House of Deer, the Thermae (baths) and the House of Carbonized Furniture. After a guided tour, you will be driven back to meet the yacht in Sorrento. Please note: This tour involves considerable walking on uneven pathways. Bring a sun hat, as shade is limited.
