After arriving at the port at approximately 6:00 am and disembarking the cruise ship once clearance has been completed, you will either begin your journey home or have the opportunity to extend your vacation and explore beautiful Italy and the surrounding area.
Along the northeast coast of Italy is where you'll discover the historic town of Ravenna. Once a thriving seaport in ancient times (it now lies five miles inland), Ravenna was also the westernmost pillar of the Byzantine Empire. Just as everyone who visits, you too will marvel at the exquisite Byzantine mosaics. At first glance, the old streets, peaceful squares and fine shops resemble any other Italian city, but the Byzantine domes of its churches still evoke its Eastern heritage. As an added bonus, Ravenna is a great place to taste the famously delicious food of the Emilia-Romagna region.
As your incredible journey comes to an end, you will return home with wonderful memories, unforgettable experiences, and new friendships made along the way during this remarkable adventure on the TRANSATLANTIC: ITALY, FRANCE & SPAIN NCL GEM CRUISE & NYC TOUR (FROM NS & NB).
