Uncover Ravenna, a magnificent historic city that served as the capital of the Western Roman Empire and is now home to an astounding collection of mosaics, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Ravenna offers an atmosphere of profound historical significance that feels both serene and deeply moving. Unlike a bustling seaside town, its focus is on its incredible collection of early Christian monuments, which are scattered throughout the compact and walkable city centre. The city's atmosphere is that of a quiet cultural capital, a place where art and history are revered, providing a peaceful and enlightening experience for visitors.

Ravenna's cultural importance is immense and unlike any other city in Italy. It served as the capital of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century and then the capital of the Ostrogothic kingdom, and later a Byzantine Exarchate. This unique period of history resulted in a collection of eight UNESCO World Heritage monuments, each containing some of the world's most impressive and well-preserved early Christian and Byzantine mosaics. The city also has a significant cultural connection to the poet Dante Alighieri, who spent his final years here, and his tomb is a place of pilgrimage for many.

The local cuisine in Ravenna is a delicious representation of the Emilia-Romagna region, with a strong emphasis on fresh pasta and rich flavours. This is the land of 'piadina', a thin flatbread that is a local staple, often filled with cured meats and soft cheeses like 'squacquerone'. Other regional specialities include fresh egg pasta dishes, such as 'cappelletti' (small filled pasta), often served in broth, and a variety of delicious cured meats and cheeses. The food here is hearty, traditional, and a genuine delight for the senses.

A visit to Ravenna offers an unparalleled opportunity to step back in time and witness masterpieces of ancient art. The city's compact size and walkable streets make it easy for cruise passengers to explore its magnificent UNESCO sites, providing a day filled with incredible beauty and a deep appreciation for its role as a pivotal centre of art and power in ancient Europe.

Explore the heart of Split, a vibrant city built within the walls of a Roman emperor's palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a living museum.

Split offers a truly unique and lively atmosphere, seamlessly blending ancient history with modern-day life. The city's heart is Diocletian's Palace, an ancient Roman structure that isn't a museum but a bustling, living part of the city. As you wander through its narrow alleyways and courtyards, you'll find locals living, working, and socialising. This fusion of ancient ruins and contemporary living gives the city a captivating and energetic feel.

The cultural significance of Split is immense, primarily due to Diocletian's Palace. Built for the Roman Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century, the palace is one of the best-preserved Roman structures in the world. Its walls and gates define the Old Town, and its legacy is evident in the city's architecture and layout. The city's history is a compelling narrative of Roman, Venetian, and Austrian influences, all of which have left their mark on its distinct identity.

The local cuisine in Split, known as Dalmatian cuisine, is a delicious reflection of its Mediterranean location. Fresh seafood is a staple, with dishes like grilled fish and 'crni rižot' (black risotto) being popular favourites. Other regional specialities include 'pašticada,' a slow-cooked beef stew often served with gnocchi, and 'peka,' a tender meat and vegetable dish cooked under a bell-like dome. The food is simple, yet rich in flavour, with a strong emphasis on fresh, local ingredients like olive oil, garlic, and herbs.

Split's unique character as a living historical landmark makes it a perfect cruise destination. A great example of this is the Riva, the city's waterfront promenade. This lively area, lined with cafes and palm trees, serves as the main meeting point for locals. From here, you can sit and enjoy a coffee while watching the world go by, all with a direct view of the ancient palace walls, creating a seamless connection between the city's past and present.
