Trieste, Italy cruises

A little slice of eternal Italy that sits between Slovenia and the Adriatic Coast. Trieste is a charming destination which has been furnished decorously by grandeur and royalty through the centuries.

The heart of the medieval old city and its neo-classical Austrian quarter offer great expressions of this seaport’s colorful past. The food is divine, the culture vibrant, and ambience quite unique.

The important capital of the Friuli Venezia Guilia region of northeast Italy, Trieste may be small but it has a big story to tell. The Roman theater built between the first and second century AD now plays host to performances throughout the summer months. From Byzantine times to Germanic, Jewish and Slavic influences, traces of great rulers and regimes gone by live on in today’s architecture all around. Take a tour in any direction for a fascinating discovery of the times and tastes of Trieste on your Mediterranean cruise.
