Ancona is a lovely port, with a beautiful harbor. Ancona serves as the gateway to the walled town of Urbino. During late fifteenth century, Urbino was ruled by Federico da Montefeltro, a patron who comissionned a number of well-known artists to decorate his Palazzo Ducale, including Urbino's most famous resident, Raphael.
Lovely town with great shopping right off the boat. Wish I could have spent more time there. Embarkation and debarkation were a breeze. Plenty of public transportation
Really don't know why cruise ships stop here

We were there on a Sunday so it was pretty dull- also it was a month where many go on holiday elsewhere. We did choose to worship at the Cathedral high on the hill, and that was very rewarding.

Most disappointing of the ports. Not much there.
