Italy is home to a whopping 54 UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the historical centers of iconic cities such as Rome, Florence and Venice.
While the prospect of seeing it all may seem daunting at first, experiencing the destination's many historically- and culturally-significant sites doesn't have to be overwhelming on a Crystal Cruises voyage of Italy and the Mediterranean.
Guests will have the opportunity to explore the epicenter of the Renaissance in Florence, viewing remnants of the city's 14th-century walls and the natural beauty of the surrounding hillsides of Tuscany.
Discover Michelangelo's David at the Galleria dell'Accademia and be sure to snap a photo of the famed Duomo before your time is up.
Travelers can also scratch Rome from their bucket list. The Italian capital is home to almost too many notable attractions to count but visitors won't want to miss iconic structures such as St. Peter's Basilica, the Colosseum and Pantheon.
Travelers should conquer Trevi Fountain and the Roman Forum as well.
A Crystal Cruises sailing is also an extraordinary way to experience one-of-a-kind Venice, a city comprised of more than 100 islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. Roam the famous Piazza San Marco and take a romantic gondola ride through the city's many canals.
