Ocean Discovery – Civitavecchia (Rome), Salerno & Catania

About this cruise

The kind of trip that's easy to say yes to and hard to regret. 7 nights from Civitavecchia (Rome) on October 18, 2026, visiting Salerno, Catania and Corfu, with additional stops along the Western Mediterranean. You wind up in Ravenna, so it's worth planning a night or two there. 7 consecutive port days with no time at sea. It's an explore-everything kind of trip. The route threads through 4 countries along the Western Mediterranean coast: Italy, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia. Ravenna stands out. It's Byzantine mosaics glittering in the Adriatic haze. 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 October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
