We LOVE cruising, especially to warm climates! Here are a few of our favorite cruise ports!
1. rome, italy
Rome is full of history! The Colosseum, Roman Forum, Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, and Vatican are some of the most popular and exciting tourist sites. And better yet, you can walk to pretty much all of them! It is great when you have a tour guide to explain the history but just seeing the sites in person is fulfilling enough!
2. venice, italy
The Grand Canal is a must-do when traveling to Venice! St. Mark's Square is also a popular place and rich with history.
3. sicily, italy
Sicily is a gorgeous town with delicious gelato! There are so many cute shops to go in and the Mediterranean is definitely a sight to SEA!
4. corfu, greece
Corfu has tons of beautiful scenery, especially when taking a Jeep to the top of the mountains! The beaches are a great place to go on a hot summer day and there is plenty to do!
5. argostoli, greece
Argostoli is home to beautiful beaches and cute little shops! It is a definitely great place to vacation!
6. split, croatia
Split is actually a Christian pilgrimage site, but there is so much history that dates back to the Roman Empire. The Diocletian's Palace is a famous palace of a Roman emperor, which is cool to see. There is also a statue of Grgur Ninski and if you rub his toe, you'll have good luck!
7. korcula, croatia
Korcula has beautiful water! Kayaking in the sea and jumping in for a swim are refreshing and the local shops are great for souvenir shopping! There are also plenty of bars and restaurants along the water.
8. dubrovnik, croatia
Did you know that The Game of Thrones was filmed in Dubrovnik?! The castle from the show is one of the few sites to see as well as the city walls, old buildings, and beautiful churches. You can even take a cable car up to a restaurant on top of a mountain! If you're lucky, you might even see some goats along the way.
9. malta
Malta is a small island but has a lot to offer! The Blue Grotto is a must-see; you can view it from above or take a boat and cruise around it! The bus tours are also a great way to explore the island.
10. kotor, montenegro
Kotor is a fun place to walk around, and walk up! You can hike through the remains of the Castle of San Giovanni and while the journey up is a bit rocky (literally), the views at the top are gorgeous!
