From Genoa to Rome (Civitavecchia)
From Genoa to Rome (Civitavecchia)
30 April
Genoa has a legendary seafaring heritage, and was once a powerful maritime republic. However, the city's most famous son, Christopher Columbus, was spurned by the Genoese elite when he came looking for funds for his expedition, and his discoveries for the Spanish Crown played no small part in Genoa's downfall. Modern Genoa is Italy's largest sea port, and the atmospheric, labyrinthine streets of the old town are filled with dazzling architecture that harks back to the city's golden age, although some neighbourhoods are admittedly a little rough around the edges.

The ship
Innovative sister ships Seabourn Encore and Ovation represent an evolution in the Seabourn fleet, slightly larger in size with all-verandah accommodation.
What we love
When Seabourn introduced these sisters, they changed the face of luxury cruising. Seabourn Encore and her sister Seabourn Ovation, with 600 guests on board, take things a step further, with lots of new thinking and special additions, continuing Seabourn's magical ability to surprise and delight.
