It was functional and comfortable.

Ship tip

The "My Time" option was worth it to us as we enjoyed the flexibility of dining at a time that was more convenient to us based on that day's activities.

What's not to like? Great food, coffee, gelato, history, culture, etc. Rome and the Vatican are always great places to visit and explore. We will be back.

Spectacular views, a truly beautiful island. Had a great meal in the village of Oia overlooking the ocean; toured the Santo winery which also offered nice wines, food and views. Definitively plan to return!

Pompeii, Sorrento, the Amalfi coast, Capri, Napoli...unbeatable - same comments as for Civitavecchia, magnified.
