Costa specialises in cruising in the Italian style with a lively and cosmopolitan ambience. Passengers are mainly Italian in the Mediterranean and American in the Caribbean.

What began as a fleet of freighters transporting fabrics and olive oil between Genoa and Sardinia in the mid-1800s is today the largest and most modern cruise fleet in Europe. Based in Genoa, Costa boasts more than fifty years of tradition in Italian passenger navigation and currently has an innovative 4* fleet of eleven English speaking ships, all operating under the Italian flag in the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the Caribbean, South America and Transatlantic. Costa Cruises stands out for its constant pursuit of excellence and its unmistakable Italian style.

The Costa fleet sails under the "Cruising Italian Style" banner - offering an experience that combines the sophisticated elegance of a European holiday with the fun and spirit of the line's Italian heritage, a Costa cruise provides all that is best about Italian charm, hospitality and service.

Costa offers something for everyone, couples looking for romance or families looking for fun, with an endless choice of opportunities, both on board ship and ashore. Days can be spent simply relaxing on the sun decks or taking part in the many activities that are on hand.

Parents can relax knowing that their children can enjoy the special on board children’s programmes under the supervision of the qualified team of staff. "Cruising Italian Style" means you can have as much freedom as you want on a Costa cruise, because you can tailor your holiday to suit you.

Past Costa cruisers have enjoyed the European atmosphere onboard – experiencing the warm, rich decor and traditional Italian service, mixing with other European guests, and sampling the sumptuous Mediterranean cuisine and authentic Italian wines.
