With its long stretched coastline, Italy is one of the major tourist destinations for all the Mediterranean cruise ships. These luxurious cruise ships travel all across Italian waters, and they also anchor in a few port towns. You will be allowed to go shopping and mix with the local flavour, while on your Italian cruise trips.
Italian Ports:
There are a number of good ports in Italy, but some of the Ports Of Call are very popular among the tourists who travel on cruises. Once you get to know about the ports where your ship will be anchoring, then you could find some more information about those places.

Major Italian Ports:
Roma Cruise Terminal: Roma lies inland, almost 50 miles away from the nearest coast. It is located in Civitavecchia, and you can travel to Rome via a bus or train. Train roughly takes an hour (one way). Well, the easiest option is to book a taxi, so that you can move around little and enjoy the road trip.
Molo Angioino: The city of Naples is right on the water, therefore getting in and out of the city is very easy. On the other hand, if you are looking forward to a day trip to Sorrento or Pompeii, you can simply take public transport, as it is easily accessible from the port.
Porto di Livorno: Just like Roma, the cruise ports connecting to Florence and Pisa are not close to the cities. It is 55 miles away from Florence and 15 miles from Pisa. In addition to Florence and Pisa, you can also visit other Tuscan towns from this seaport
