MSC Meraviglia – 13th to 20th November – Naples to Civitavecchia
Background
We had booked this cruise for a number of reasons, the first being that even though we have visited the majority of ports on the Western Med circuit we had never visited Naples. Knowing that we would like to see Pompeii, Herculaneum, Sorrento and some of the other main attractions, this itinerary meant we could spend a few days in Naples before the start of the cruise and tick these destinations off our lists.
convenient for the lifts, but being underneath the buffet meant the inevitable scraping of chairs on the floors could be heard
Booked a private tour (not through MSC) to do a wine tasting - great value.
A great port, spent some time here before the cruise
Beautiful christmas market in the Vieux Port, taxi is as cheap as ship's shuttle
Booked the aquarium online before the trip
