Creator's Key Takeaways

This vessel holds the record for the most pools and hot tubs in Costa's history with four swimming pools and dozens of hot tubs spread across four levels of deck space.

She's powered entirely by liqufied natural gas, which completely eliminates sulfur emissions and significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to traditional cruise ship fuel.

Costa Tuscana sails the western Mediterranean operating primarily from Cotavia which serves as the port for Rome.

The ship brings Italian flare and family-friendly atmosphere to every voyage, combining Mediterranean hospitality with cuttingedge sustainable technology.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Hit buffets during off-peak hours to avoid crowds and picked-over selections.
βœ“Claim a lounger early at adults-only pool areas, as they fill up quickly on sea days.
βœ“Adjust expectations for Italian and European entertainment styles, which differ from Caribbean-focused cruise lines.
