Celebrity Guests: The Retreat, Longer Itineraries & Rome Stays

Celebrity’s 2026 Mediterranean sailings run 10–12 nights, so most guests treat Rome as a destination in its own right rather than a quick turnaround — pairing the cruise with two or three nights in the city before or after. Suite guests in The Retreat receive priority embarkation, and arriving at your assigned terminal window keeps the process seamless. Edge-class ships such as Celebrity Ascent use the larger deep-water quays at Civitavecchia, so our drivers confirm the berth and drop you at the correct terminal entrance instead of the general port gate.

With a predominantly American and British guest profile arriving via Fiumicino after overnight flights, a pre-cruise night in Rome is the norm — we cover FCO → hotel → Civitavecchia as a single fixed-price itinerary. For post-cruise, we can build in a half-day of Rome sightseeing with your luggage stored in the vehicle before the final airport drop-off.
