So your vacation for the summer of 2022 can be planned in advance.Online Editor: Patrick StofferDuring a luxury cruise in Italy with Seabourn, you can experience the epic history, overwhelming landscapes and authentic food that Italians cherish. When the ship docks in the port of Naples, you can take the opportunity to explore Pompeii, Positano and the beautiful Amalfi Coast on a UNESCO tour. Many typical Italian dishes originate from Naples, including spaghetti Napoletana and pizza. The pizza margherita is even on UNESCO's list of intangible cultural heritage. Naples is also the birthplace of espresso. During a walking tour of the city - with seventeen square kilometers, Naples has the largest historic city center in Europe - you can fully enjoy the local delicacies. See Naples and then die? No way, because other Italian places also deserve to be visited. For example, few cities match the beauty of Venice. During a visit with Seabourn to this historic city in northeastern Italy, see such highlights as the Grand Canal, the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute and the Doge's Palace from a gondola. Or learn more about the beautiful Murano glass and Burano lace. Rome, for its part, offers an abundance of art and history. Immerse yourself in the wonder of the ancient capital of the Roman Empire and also center of the Roman Catholic Church. Not-to-be-missed sights include the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Pantheon. History passes you by. Of course, you'll also want to see the world-famous St. Peter's Square and St. Peter's Basilica and the Trevi Fountain, the setting for a scene from Federico Fellini's film La Dolce Vita. Food and drink also occupy a prominent place here. Join a wine tasting or make your own pasta with the locals.
