Rome, Italy, (From Civitavecchia)
Rome may not have been built in a day – but you can see a lot of this treasure-packed city in one!
The ‘Eternal City’ is the place to sip frothy cappuccino, suck on some spaghetti in a pretty piazza or visit Vatican City – the world’s smallest country and home to the Pope. Go mad in Gucci, gawp at some great art or watch the passing parade from the Spanish Steps. Just make sure you find the Trevi fountain and toss in a coin – said to guarantee you’ll return to Rome!
