Italian & Adriatic Gems – Rome to Ravenna
About this cruise
Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night sailing from Civitavecchia (Rome) on September 6, 2026 visits Salerno, Catania and Corfu, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. Last stop: Ravenna. 7 consecutive port days with no time at sea. It's an explore-everything kind of trip. The route threads through 5 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia and Slovenia. Of the stops, Corfu tends to be the one people talk about: Venetian elegance in an emerald setting. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 14 restaurants on Norwegian Gem, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Civitavecchia (Rome) itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And September is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
