Can't decide which portcalls/cruise?
 
Hi,
We can't decide which mediterranean cruise to choose i.e

Option 1 with portcalls including:
Piraeus(Athens), Greece
Dubrovnik, Croatia
Livorno, Italy

Option 2 with portcalls including:
Messina (Sicily), Italy
Genoa,Italy

We are confused! This will be our first cruise to the mediterranean on the Celebrity.

Please help with your tips and recommendations. Thanks.......

I would definitely go with option 1, hands down. ((b))

Agree with Budman. From Livorno you can see Pisa and Florence.

Happy Traveling, are there any itineraries that include Taormina (Naxos) Sicily instead of Messina? Taormina is beautiful and much better IMO. Also, I'd opt for Sorrento if you can find that as a port over Genoa. Dubrovnik is great!
Hey, what about Venice...no stop in Venice?
I'm hoping that these aren't mentioned because you've been there/done that...otherwise, I'd keep looking at itineraries.

Both Option 1 & 2 include:
- Venice
- Civitavecchia
- Mykonos
- Santorini
- Naples
- Villafranche

Thanks for making this an easier decision.
