Piazza Navona Entertains

Nearly all Mediterranean cruises start and finish in these ports: Barcelona, Rome (Civitavecchia), Venice, or Istanbul. So cruise travelers will generally have a little extra time in these great cities. We just finished one cruise (West Mediterranean) and have a day free in Rome before catching our second cruise (covering the East). Beware: There's a lot of experience among cruise travelers, and it is shared generously. One lady I met on the ship was a veteran of a dozen or so Mediterranean cruises. She said, "The key in Rome is to leave the crowds and eat with the locals, so I dine on Navona Square." To me Piazza Navona is about as touristy as Rome gets. But as a night spot, it has a centuries old magic.
