Back to Back Mediterranean Cruises

In June 2013, we sailed on back-to-back Disney Cruises in the Mediterranean. Highlights included ports with access to Florence, Rome, Venice, Athens, Ephesus, Dubrovnik, Naples, Malta, Mykonos, Villefranche, and Barcelona. We began this blog in the planning stages, posted during the trip itself, and are continuing to share not only our experiences, but information we learned along the way. We hope our blog will be useful to others planning visits to the Mediterranean whether by land or by sea.

When in Rome...

We have many of our days planned out by doing excursions through the cruise line, but for our day in Rome, we have hired Rome in Limo to pick us up at the port of Civitavecchia and take us on a guided tour of the city. Because we've seen several of the most popular sites, we have been talking to friends and family who have been to Rome as well as reading on our usual haunts: CruiseCritic.com and TripAdvisor.com. We have made our short list:

The Forum
Basilica San Clemente
Circus Maximus
Mamertine Prison
Palatine Hill
Baths of Caracalla
Victor Emmanuel Monument that has a lift that takes you the top to see "Rome from the sky"

Here's a sneak peek:
