The attractiveness of Europe is combined with the unique flavor of the Mediterranean. Traveling on a cruise ship gives you the opportunity to see 4 countries without tedious travel.
Venice in one day
This city is full of history, famous for its canals and gondolas, and an atmosphere of romanticism. The main canal without embankments is considered the soul of Venice, Piazza San Marco is the heart.
One day is enough to see:
- Doge’s Palace, as if floating above the square;
- St. Mark’s Cathedral with Byzantine treasures;
- bell tower of San Marcos by the Moors in bronze.
Please note! The main attraction of St. Mark’s Square is the pigeons.
Pay for 10 hours
Russian tourists do not often visit this Croatian city; the resort of Dubrovnik is much more popular. The main attraction is the old town with cobbled streets, arched gates, cathedrals and museums.
The main historical monuments are the Cathedral of St. Anastasia and the Church of St. Donat. Both buildings are included in the list of examples of Byzantine architecture. The best place for photographing panoramas of the city is the tower of the Cathedral of St. Anastasia.
The Museum of Glass with vases, jugs, flasks, amulets of Mesopotamia and Egypt invariably becomes a surprise for tourists. Unique object — “Salutations to the Sun”, imitating the solar system.
What is Montenegrin Kotor famous for
Ten hours allotted for the ship’s mooring is enough to see the main attractions of this city. An important advantage is that there is no need to use transport; everything can be explored on foot. It’s worth starting with the old city, surrounded by walls and bastions.
Buildings built in the 17th century are perfectly preserved:
- Cathedral of St. Tryphon;
- Kotor Fortress;
