Italy cruises

Ravenna is located in the north of Italy and a real treat for any art and history buff. With its eight UNESCO World Heritage sites and array of medieval churches, anyone wanting to learn more about the city would be hard pressed to find time to fit it all in. However, one of the things for which the city is most famous are the beautiful mosaics, so the Basilica of San Vitale and the Mausoleum of Galla Placida are a good place to begin. Ravenna also sits in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, an area famed for its culinary delights, and while you're here it would be a shame not to indulge in some of the culinary delights on offer. The most well-known dishes feature pizza, flatbread and spaghetti with locally caught clams, all washed down with a glass of a Lambrusco sparkling red wine.
